Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: Mr. Message (AIM client) update (2/19/2006)

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice.org ++

From: Marty <martyamodeoDESPAM at DESPAMcomcast.net>


Mr. Message for OS/2 is an instant messenger client which is capable 
of communicating over AOL's Instant Messenger network using the OSCAR 
protocol (used in the Win32 AIM clients, jBuddy, gAIM, Kopete, ICQ, 
and a variety of other clients).

It has been updated with the following changes:

* Fixed receiving instant messages from other clients.
    Damn protocol changes!
* Fixed a small memory leak when an IM is received that is not
    understood.
* Added new scriptable events for pre-processing and post-processing
    instant messages.  This should allow anyone to write a translator for
    other languages and character sets.  See ReadMe.REXX for details.
* Added new functions to the REXX subcommand interface to display
    messages in the chat window (without sending them to a user), and to
    get a user's alias.
* Included more sample scripts in the REXX package to demonstrate new
    REXX integration features.

To download, please visit the official Mr. Message web page:

This is the final release of Mr. Message since I am now working on a 
full port of Gaim (which will cover all of the functionality of Mr. 
Message and a whole lot more, including multiple protocols such as 
Jabber, Yahoo, and MSN to name a few).

If a fix request for Mr. Message is simple enough, I will do it.  But 
if  it takes too much time, I'd rather devote the time to the Gaim port.
