## Python Scripts:
Scripts for XChat 1.8.x are not compatible, a brand new interface has been written. For more info, see the [HexChat Python Interface](http://docs.hexchat.org/en/latest/script_python.html).
## Python Scripts:
Consider using the Python interface for your scripts, it's a very nice
API, allows for loading/unloading individual scripts, and gives you
almost all the features of the C-Plugin API.
For more info, see the [HexChat Python Interface](http://docs.hexchat.org/en/latest/script_python.html).
## Perl Scripts:
Perl 5.8 or newer is required. For more info, see the [HexChat Perl Interface](http://docs.hexchat.org/en/latest/script_perl.html).
Scripts for XChat 1.8.x are compatible with the following exceptions:
* IRC::command will not interpret %C, %B, %U etc.
* user_list and user_list_short:
If a user has both op and voice, only the op flag will be 1.
* add_user_list/sub_user_list/clear_user_list
These functions do nothing.
* notify_list
Not implemented. Always returns an empty list.
* server_list
Lists servers that are not connected aswell.
* Some print events may have new names and some were added.
* Text printed by scripts must now be UTF8.
* Text passed to scripts (via add_message_handler) will be encoded in UTF8.
