MacIrssi is a powerful, free of charge, open source IRC client.
MacIrssi is extremely configurable. Some things can be changed in the preference panel. Everything else is configured by editing the configuration files that resides in the folder ~/.irssi (invisible since it starts with a dot). These files are the same files used by irssi, so I urge you to visit http://www.irssi.org if you want to learn more about editing these. ot).

Theme preview and selection from preferences panel.
