Minerva 1.3.0beta1

Well in the simplist or terms, Minerva is a chat-centric IRC client. I often think of Minerva as being Epic in a GUI. Its a clean-cut basic, but flexible, IRC client that does everything which is documented in the IRC protocol.
Minerva is designed for those who enjoy an online community.
To put it straight, Minerva is meant for those who just want to chat.
Main features:
- Compact interface - Have all your channels in one window, or one window for every channel.
- Optional Floating Taskbar lists all open chat windows for quit switching.
- Custom command aliases - Create your own command shortcuts using the built in command alias system
- Custom contextual menus - Define what you want on your userlist menu (work in progress)
- Nickname Autocomplete - Start typing a nick and press the tab key. Minerva show a list of closest matching nicknames, or just complete the nick if theres only one match.
- Custom definable message formats - Everyone likes their channel text formatted differently. Minerva lets you decide
- Text / HTML Channel Logging - Why should your logs be less formatted then your output? Take a look at how Minerva logs can look.
- Individual channel settings - Every channel remembers its own settings, so when you come back the next day the window opens right where you left off
- XDCC Tracker - For those who hang out in XDCC file sharing channels, Minerva offers a XDCC Tracker which catalogs all the file bot offerings
- URL Tracker - Need a URL that someone said an hour ago? Dont scroll up, just look in the tracker.
