 POE::Component::IRC is a POE component (who'd have guessed?) which
 acts as an easily controllable IRC client for your other POE
 components and sessions. You create an IRC component and tell it what
 events your session cares about and where to connect to, and it sends
 back interesting IRC events when they happen. You make the client do
 things by sending it events. That's all there is to it. Cool, no?
 .
 [Note that using this module requires some familiarity with the
 details of the IRC protocol. I'd advise you to read up on the gory
 details of RFC 1459
 <http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1459.txt> before you
 get started. Keep the list of server numeric codes handy while you
 program. Needless to say, you'll also need a good working knowledge of
 POE, or this document will be of very little use to you.]
