ScrollZ is an advanced Internet Relay Chat client based on ircII. It incorporates many useful features found in all sorts of scripts. The main difference between these scripts and ScrollZ is the code – whereas ircII scripts take a lot of disk and memory space and run slow, ScrollZ only takes a couple of extra kilobytes compared to the stock ircII client. Because of this, ScrollZ runs faster than any ircII script. This was accomplished by using native C programming instead of scripting using ircII's language. This reduces memory and CPU usage and code tends to run much faster.

The current version of ScrollZ is 1.9.3.
