About Baxter:

Baxter is a _skinnable_ IRC client for the BeOS. Much like mIRC, Baxter allows you to have your channels as tabs of one window, but for those used to other clients you can simply drag the tabs away from the window.

Details about this version:

Scripting! Consult the Scripting documentation in the Help directory for more details.

CTCP Features

User List Features

New symbols to show ops and voice in user list
Check box to disable sorting users in user list (shown instead by time when they joined)

Check box to make notification window open after connection to server

New, comprehensive list of preset servers (I'll make the GUI for this more usable in Baxter Z)

New settings for join, part, quit, and nick change colors

Very useful channel options menu for chan-ops, or just for viewing channel modes. (not included in the ppc version, will be added for Baxter Z)

/cycle command (parts then joins a channel)

Right-clicking a tab reveals a couple features, with more coming soon

Recent channels menu

Tab colors can be incorporated into a skin. Start Baxter with --printtabcolors in a Terminal to make Baxter print out the current tab colors. Look at the Turtle skin for an example of a skin that has both text colors and tab colors.

Sound Prefs

Highly configurable sounds prefs: some sounds let you select whether the sound should Always be played when Baxter is not in focus, whether the sound should be played when it occurs in the focus channel, and whether it should be played when it occurs in a channel without focus.
New sounds for when a user in your notify list comes online or goes offline.

Check box to disable Baxter's remote control features (QueryCLAmp will not work if the remote control features are disabled, of course).
