Hi Guix,
to use IRC
what do I have to install?
I guess: Pidgin
or are there other clients I should prefer?
what else?
Is it enough to install that client or do I have to add something in my
config.scm?
--
Kind regards and thanks for help
Gottfried

I'm partial to [Hexchat], although it is on the old-school side UI-wise.
[Hexchat]: https://packages.guix.gnu.org/packages/hexchat
Installing the client is enough.
If you don't use IRC often, Guix gives the option of downloading and running Hexchat without really installing it (like any other package) - this would look like this:
```sh
guix shell hexchat gtk:bin -- hexchat
```
I had to add `gtk:bin` to make it use my selected icon theme. AFAIK it can be made unnecessary in the packaging process, but I guess it's not done here.

Hi Gottfried,
It's a matter of personal preference. I use hexchat, others use emacs, …
I also have a bouncer (znc) on my server which stays connected for me.
HTH!

I can warmly recommend Circe in Emacs. Before that, I used WeeChat and
Irssi but they are harder to configure, especially the latter.
Kind regards
Felix

You can also just go to https://web.libera.chat/, join #guix and say
"Hi" :)

Hi Gottfried,
I don't know if it's the best, but I use hexchat.
You can run "guix search irc client" to find a few, try them out with guix shell, and figure which one works best for you ;)
