I am talking about connecting to a server using SSH that is running my IRC client. Irssi was just an example where gestures are extremely useful (like sending alt+n or alt+p to change channels depending on swipe direction). Making shell scripts and turning them into shortcuts is very cumbersome and still doesn't have all of the features I'd want to have. Why would a small GUI not be possible? This isn't really something I want to compromise on as I've had that functionality even on S60 for years.
