- spike021 9y agoWish I could connect to Hipchat over my Weechat client :)
- nine_k 9y agoHipchat can be configured to offer an IRC gateway.
- spike021 9y agoWhoa. I will look into this. Thanks for letting me know! Figured that was only the case with Slack since Slack is IRC-based (IIRC).
- HerrMonnezza 9y agoYou can use Bitlbee as a gateway between your IRC client and the HipChat server. See, è.g., https://wiki.bitlbee.org/HowtoHipchat https://wiki.bitlbee.org/HowtoHipchat
