Tkabber Description
Tkabber is a IM client that provides a Tcl/Tk interface to the Jabber instant messaging and presence service. Tcl/Tk is a graphical scripting language. The choice of Tcl/Tk for a Jabber client is three-fold: it is portable: once you install a Tcl/Tk interpreter on your system, the Tkabber script "just runs" - without having to compile anything; it is customizable: Tkabber reads a configuration file when it starts that tells it the settings of various parameters; and, it is extensible: the configuration file is actually a Tcl script, so you can replace or augment entire portions of Tkabber (if you're so inclined). Main features: sessions: hashed passwords encrypted sessions (if you install an optional extension) login via HTTP proxy user-defined hooks for connection establishment and release XMPP/Jabber MIME type messages: emoticons signed/encrypted messages (if you install an optional extension) file transfers (HTTP, DTCP and IBB transports) filters groupchat (GroupChat-1.0 and Multi-User Chat conferencing protocols) headline messages message events completions of nick and commands hyperlinks user-defined hooks for chat window events presence: avatars browsing groupchat and roster invitations conference room bookmarks annotations about roster items signed presence (if you install an optional extension) vCards user-defined hooks for presence changes windowing: configurable look-and-feel via a resources database unicode tabbed/non-tabbed interface sound notifications nested roster groups for Unix: auto-away, spell checking, KDE docking, and WMaker icons for Windows: auto-away, and taskbar icons
