A change in GLib 2.63 broke some assumptions in Irssi that the null-byte NUL / U+0000 is a valid Unicode character. This would occur when the user types Ctrl+Space. As a result, the input loop never manages to process the NUL-byte (and any other user input that follows, ever). This patch adds a manual check that properly advances the input loop if GLib returns -2 (incomplete character) despite the length being positive and a NUL is in first position. Fixes #1180 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/merge_requests/967 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2093
Irssi
Irssi is a modular chat client that is most commonly known for its text mode user interface, but 80% of the code isn't text mode specific. Irssi comes with IRC support built in, and there are third party ICB, SILC, XMPP (Jabber), PSYC and Quassel protocol modules available.
