Looks like there’s several options for a Ruby IRC client module/  
class. Can someone recommend any one of them in particular?

Thanks!

I couldn’t get any of them to work for me, but I’ve heard good things  
about rice.

If you want, I can give you a really slim one that I’m working on, but  
it depends on what you need it to do exactly (i.e., I haven’t  
implemented a lot of the IRC protocol, but you can send/receive  
channel and private messages and a few other things). Contact me  
off-list if you’re interested.
