Mikan IRC client

Mikan IRC client icon

Mikan is a LimeChat (version 2.26) IRC client fork built for the PowerPC architecture and OS X 10.5.8 “Leopard”. It has no binary slice for i386, therefore is PowerPC-only.

Works with all non-SSL enabled IRC servers and I did some additional tweaks to the original LimeChat code, like not replying back to CTCP Version or CTCP Time requests for privacy reasons.
