The following list is a summary of all major additions, changes, and fixes part of version6.0.0 of the Textual IRC Client.

Textual 6 delivers performance unmatched by any of its predecessors when running on OS X ElCapitan or later.
This is accomplished by laying out and rendering channel content on separate processes usingWebKit2.

Chat Filter Addon
The Chat Filter Addon received a significant overhaul. Umbrella 1 1 1 12.
Changes
- Filters can now be dragged and dropped to change the order they're matched in.
- Filters can now be exported and imported to allow them to be shared with others.
- Filters can now respond to more events: user joined channel, user left channel, user kicked from channel, user disconnected, channel topic changed, channel mode changed, and much, much more!
- An empty Filter Match value will match any possible value.
Networking
Textual 6 supports Happy Eyeballs, aprotocol for intelligently using IPv6 whenavailable.
A preference to prefer IPv4 has been added to the Network Socket section ofServer Properties.
Other Additions
- Added the command back which can be used to easily toggle off away status.
- Added the commands quiet and unquiet which can be used to modify the quiet list of the selected channel.
- Added “List of Quiets” window to view and/or remove entries in the quiet list of the selected channel.
- Added support for the monitor IRCv3 capability to the Address Book.
- Added inline image support for .webm files hosted by 4chan and 8chan.
- Added inline image support for lfil.es short URLs.
- Added preference “Only speak channel messages for the selected channel”, which is enabled by default.
Other Changes
- A two second delay now occurs between each join when automatically joining channels. This delay can be modified by navigating to Preferences ➜ Advanced ➜ Flood Control.
- Textual no longer waits for the Internet to be available before reconnecting when waking from sleep. There is no reliable way to determine when we can truly send data, so it's best to keep trying.
- It is no longer possible to select more than eight (8) channels at one time in the “Channel List” window.
- Incomplete file transfers are now resumed when the person sending the file supports this.
- Improved technique for collecting channel information to reduce number of “Max SendQ' disconnects.
- Improved support for connecting to irssi-proxy.
- Improved reliability and speed of playing back messages from previous session.
- The Client Certificate section of Server Properties now includes the SHA-256 fingerprint of the certificate.
- The commands amsg and ame no longer send messages to queries (private messages).
- The commands ctcp and ctcpreply now expect the first parameter to always be the destination.
- The commands gline, gzline, zline, shun, and tempshun no longer modify their input to include the default reason.
- The commands ignore and unignore are no longer silent. They now provide feedback when performed.
- Removed the preference to hide messages that mention an ignored user. This preference never worked correctly and had a noticeable impact on performance.
- When duplicating a connection, its passwords are now duplicated as well.
- Modified list of whitelisted URL schemes to include “gopher”
- Modified list of networks to include GeekShed, MindForge, IdleChat, and LizardIRC.
- Modified list of networks to remove the now defunct networks flux.cd, IRCNode, irc.btri.x10.bz, and ValleyNode.
- Removed inline image support for the now defunct services img.ly, twitgoo.com, tweetphoto.com, and yfrog.com.
Fixes
- Fixed inability to add a channel named “#”
- Fixed almost every misspelling of “Parameter' as “Paramater”
- Fixed inability to navigate Server Properties using the tab key.
- Fixed channel passwords not being censored when they are supposed to be.
- Fixed file transfers failing when sending a file with a name that contains a space.
- Fixed a bug in the Caffeine addon that caused crashes when deleting connections.

ircII (pronounced i-r-c-two or irk-two,[1][2] and sometimes referred to as IRC client, second edition[3]) is a free, open-sourceUnixIRC and ICB client written in C. Initially released in the late 1980s, it is the oldest IRC client still maintained.[4][5] Several other UNIX IRC clients, including BitchX, EPIC, and ScrollZ, were originally forks of ircII. For some,[who?] ircII set the standard of quality for IRC clients, however other clients have since overtaken ircII in terms of popularity.[6] The application has been promoted as being 'fast, stable, lightweight, portable, and easily backgrounded'.[7]
ircII runs in a text-only shell-based environment. The application has no pop-ups or any other GUI features[8] or support for CTCP SOUND that many graphical IRC clients, such as XChat typically have.
ircII was the first IRC client to implement Client-to-client protocol (CTCP) and the Direct Client-to-Client (DCC) protocol, and was the first client to implement file transfer capabilities over IRC.[9] The CTCP protocol was implemented by Michael Sandrof in 1990 for version 2.1.[10] The DCC protocol was implemented by Troy Rollo in 1991 for version 2.1.2,[11] but was never intended to be portable to other IRC clients.[12][13]

Note on the pronunciation of ircII: Some of us like to call it 'eye-are-see-two'. However, the other main variant, 'irk-two' is probably historically more accurate. It's also commonly called 'urk-ee' which is most definitely wrong. Feel free to disagree with us, we're not going to argue the point to death. What's pretty certain is that it is 'two' and not 'ee'.

The first comment I should make is that the DCC protocol was never designed to be portable to clients other than IRCII. As such I take no responsibility for it being difficult to implement for other clients.
