Created attachment 859411 [details] patch enabling /usr/bin/hexchat-text It is very simple to build also a CLI user interface for hexchat. I wonder whether we want it or not.
It has very little value for users, it is only useful for something like a bot but very few scripts exist for bot like functionality. At the same time though its of no cost for us it is a very small binary so I'm not sure.

So after thinking it over I've decided against it, hexchat-text is barely supported upstream, full of bugs, and never tested. So us shipping it implies it would be supported in some fashion when it won't be.
