| ayttm | Universal instant messaging client | Mehr ... |
Ayttm is an instant messaging (aka chat) client that provides all-in-one chat
functionality for several major instant messaging services from one simple
program. Ayttm "Contacts" allow you to refer to several accounts of the same
person from a single contact name, making it one of the cleanest and simplest
clients to use.
.
Ayttm is the heir of the Everybuddy project, and aims to continue improving
the program and addressing its shortcomings. The primary goal is to provide a
messenger which is:
.
* simple: Ayttm should work nicely without having to first go through a
complicated configuration procedure. The preferences should be simple and
minimal.
* stable: Ayttm should not crash when you use it.
* intuitive: Ayttm should be almost instantly usable by your mother ;)
* flexible: Ayttm supports multiple protocols and they should be supported in
an integrated manner (common interface, for example), without limiting
protocol-specific features support. Ayttm currently handles Yahoo!, MSN,
Jabber, IRC, AIM and ICQ.
.
It also features support for file transfers, group chat, MSN GnomeMeeting
integration, tabbed chat, smiley themes, status tooltips, conversation logging,
automatic translation, GPG signing/encryption, typing notifications, spell
checking and import of contacts from other clients. |
