Hello, I have been working on an Mac OS X IRC client based on irssi. 
The program is called MacIrssi and I have now released the first beta 
version. I would like to start by thanking Andrew de los Reyes for 
doing the initial Mac OS X GUI port, and also thank the fink team, 
whose buildfiles helped me in compiling irssi. The program is written 
using Apple's Cocoa API, and har an aqua GUI with a channel list and a 
nick list.

I have set up an temporary website at http://www.g1m0.se/macirssi/
A screenshot can be found at http://www.g1m0.se/macirssi/pics/screen.png
A downloadable diskimage is at 
http://www.cs.umu.se/~c01nhe/MacIrssi.dmg and a mirror at 
http://www.g1m0.se/macirssi/MacIrssi.dmg
Sourcecode can be fetched from 
http://www.g1m0.se/macirssi/MacIrssi%20source.dmg

If you are running Mac OS X, please let me know your oppinions.

I still have one problem though, /exec doesn't seem to be working 
properly. Could this be because it detects that it's not connected to a 
tty? The output is correct if used with -interactive, but -out isn't 
working 100%. I have not looked into the exec code yet, but if someone 
knows what the problem is right away, please tell me.
