Snak 4.8 Carbon

Snak is a program that will let you participate in discussions in
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) channels. IRC channels are virtual meeting
rooms on the Internet, where people all over the world can have
real-time conversations.

IRC consists of many different networks, often with thousands of
channels, each focused on a location or subject, and anything that is
typed into the channel will be seen by the other members. This makes
it possible to have a real-time conversation with people all over the
world.

IRC is different from other chatting systems like AIM and ICQ in that
it is intended for conversation within a whole group of people,
rather than one on one. Additionally IRC fully supports private
conversations between two people.

Some of the most significant features of Snak:
Uniquely flexible interface allows multiple channels in one window.
Support for long file names on OS X.
Two powerful scripting languages - AppleScript and ircII.
Compatibility with many existing scripts written for other clients.
Easy access to MP3 files offered in the MP3 IRC channels.
A channel bar for easy switching between channels.
A consolidated list and information window.
A divided main text with resizable text and nickname areas for better
text display.
Nick completion and support for mouse scroll wheels.

Version 4.8 features an improved window sharing option that stacks
the docked channels in the window instead of tiling them. This new
feature lets the active channel use the entire window area and the
embedded channel bar shows you when the other channels receive text.
The Nick completion has been improved and now works on the last word
in the line instead of just the first.

DCC transfer speed has been improved in version 4.8 and Snak now
supports long filenames on OS X. DCC resume transfer speed
calculations have been improved, and there is now the option to
automatically rename incoming files when duplicates are found.

This version contains many usability improvements, including the
option of requiring the option key for stepping through the message
history, changes to the way Snak uses saved preference files,
automatic detection of lost connections, and an improved and
simplified Setup Assistant.
