Quassel is awesome, and has a really interesting idea in wanting to store logs in an sqlite db for better searching, but ironically in the current client implementation this seems to make it harder to search for stuff.
While searching for things in the immediately loaded buffer is easy (CTRL+F), searching for things said a long time ago can't be searched via the client. You either have to use command line tools to dump the sqlite db into a grepable text file or install the quasselsuche web app (last updated in 2012).
Once better long term search has been implemented in the client, quassel will become the best GUI IRC client hands down, I look forward to seeing the progress made in this area.
