IRC is great for some people. They can chat with each other, plan events, etc. But.. Who really needs that? Isn't simply speaking with an unknown number of people with no names better? At least that's what simplechat allows. It doesn't allow any codes, and there's no nick support.
It's just pure chat.
Another simplechat feature is that it doesn't tell anyone about the number of users on a server. When someone joins or leaves, no one is notified. As the curses frontend included with simplechat allows one to easily reuse previous messages simply by using the up and down arrows, confusion is bound to happen. One might even forget one's own words.

This program has only been tested on GNU/Linux. It'll probably also work on Mæc (but not Whinedoze, since there's a curses interface involved).
