+Rcirc is an Internet relay chat (IRC) client.  It supports

+takes place in its own buffer.  For each connection you can join

+*** Topic cryptography added, enabling easy gpg topic encryption and
+decryption.  Per-topic basis enables interspersing encrypted-text and
+clear-text within a single file to your hearts content, using symmetric
+and/or public key modes.  Time-limited key caching, user-provided
+symmetric key hinting and consistency verification, auto-encryption of
+pending topics on save, and more, make it easy to use encryption in
+powerful ways.
+
+*** many substantial fixes and refinements, including:
+
+   - repaired inhibition of inadvertant edits to concealed text
+   - repaired retention of topic body hanging indent upon topic depth shifts
+   - prevent "containment discontinuities" where a topic is shifted deeper
+     than the offspring-depth of its' container
+   - easy to adopt the distinctive bullet of a topic in a topic created
+     relative to it, or select a new one, or use the common topic bullet
+   - plain bullets, by default, now alternate between only two characters
+     ('.' and ','), yielding less cluttered outlines.
