naim

Simultaneous, multi-protocol support (naim can be used to connect to multiple IRC networks, as well as several AIM screen names, at the same time), changes to many aspects of the user interface to offer more precise control and more intuitive navigation, and many nag fixes (such as proper window resizing in xterm).

IM window scrollback support, autohiding buddylist to allow IM windows to use the whole screen, input window inserts rather than overwrites, IRC support (use the naim.server directive in .faimrc), unrecognized /-commands are no longer passed to users, and CTCP support for IRC and AIM (using ECT).

Changes since 0.10.2 include a new configurable status bar to replace the old buddylist info block, improved input handling (including a bugfix allowing naim to work correctly in screen), a bugfix in FireTalk involving large server messages, and new default colors designed for optimal display in non-standard terminals.

This release includes a few minor tweaks and user suggested improvements, some new commands and .faimrc directives, and a few rewrites to compile in more diverse environments.

This is the first release in quite a while, with fixes for all of the things you hated about naim (the ratelimit errors, the "server missed messages from buddy" notices, etc.) by using a new protocol library, and improvements to all of the user interface features for better usability.
