Among the features in ClicksAndWhistles is the support for different server connections at the same time. Some users are actually on a different server and old IRC clients can only support a single server. This means you have to disconnect from one server before you can chat to another user. But ClicksAndWhistles removes that restriction by allowing various servers to run at the same time in one client.
Other impressive features of ClicksAndWhistles are the additional function that could be launch by right clicking on the chat window, customization of background with pictures and additional username if you want to be identified as a different user in other chat windows. Along with the standard features and commands that come from a regular IRC client, ClicksAndWhistles can be considered as an upgraded IRC client that offers more features for better chat experience.
