hopefully someone will offer to continue developing IrcLeech for
Linux, but right now, nobody is working on it.

Can you go a little bit more in detail? What is needed for that? I mean,
which part of the source code is portable between the two versions and
which is not? If I understand it right, the GUI is different, but the
rest should work in both versions? And why is the GUI different?

The ircleech code is basically split up in 2 parts: IrcLeechCore, and
the GUI above it.  On Windows, the GUI is implemented with
System.Windows.Forms (SWF).   SWF doesn't work on Linux (allthough the
Mono team is working on it) so the Linux version uses GTK# for the
GUI.  GTK# however does not work properly on Windows so for now it is
necessary to have a different front-end for each platform.   But both
the Linux and Windows version use the same underlying cross-platform
code (IrcLeechCore).  So the only thing that would be needed is for
someone to develop the GUI in GTK# or to update the existing GTK# GUI.
