Individual users can detach, log out, pack up and go home, then log back in from anywhere on the Internet to resume their naim session.· naim is maintained by an OPEN, DIRECTED COMMUNITY, and has been in development since October, 1998.Requirements:· ncurses· screenWhat's New in This Release:· /ctcp was fixed.
