XChat is a very popular IRC client, and is my favourite, but there are still
a few things wrong with the latest versions, in my opinion.
For example, there is an incredibly annoying "feature" where if you press
^W (Ctrl-W), it closes the current tab that's open, without any warning whatsoever.
The developers consider this to be the
proper
thing to do for a GNOME application, but some people
disagree
.
I happen to disagree, so I hunted around on google until I found a source
tarball that had been patched to remove this tab-closing "feature". I then ran
a diff on it and the original source tree of that version, and found out how
to disable it. I then made a
unified patch
for it. Here
is the normal diff output, because it's easier for humans to read.
The patch also changes the "Open Link in Opera" menu entry to open a new tab,
rather than opening in the current window, removes the generic "Open Link in
Browser" entry (which, as far as I could tell, did nothing), and (heh) changes
the main window title to read "XChat-DC" rather than just "XChat".
These patches are released under the WTFPL.
