## 项目历史与用法

catgirl is a terminal IRC client with a curses interface for IRC over TLS. Its README emphasizes focused terminal usability: tab completion, split scroll, URL handling, stable nick coloring, topic diffing, ignore filters, and sandboxing on BSD systems.

### 项目历史

The official README presents catgirl as part of June McEnroe's IRC suite and points to an IRC Suite essay dated June 19, 2020. The project deliberately keeps a narrow scope: no dynamic configuration, no built-in multi-network management, no reconnection loop, and limited IRCv3 support unless it improves the intended experience.

### 采用历史

The README says catgirl and libtls may be packaged for the user's system, and the supplied package facts list Alpine, Homebrew, Debian, MacPorts, Nix, Scoop, and Ubuntu. That is broad adoption for a deliberately small IRC client.

### 使用方式

Users run catgirl with a host or load one or more config files from XDG config directories. The manual covers TLS certificates, SASL PLAIN, CertFP via SASL EXTERNAL, logging to XDG data directories, URL open/copy helpers, and IRC command handling.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

catgirl is interesting to package people because it combines old IRC culture with modern packaging details: libtls portability, XDG paths, curses UI, optional macOS sleep/wake wrapper, and BSD sandboxing. It is small, opinionated, and unusually explicit about what it refuses to implement.

### 时间线

- 2020: The README references June McEnroe's IRC Suite essay dated June 19.
- 2025: The generated README page is dated May 8.
- 2026: The cgit page identifies https://git.causal.agency/catgirl as the upstream URL.

### Related projects

- Related projects include pounce, which the README names as an IRC bouncer option, and sandman, the macOS wrapper shipped with catgirl.
