GOIM is a full featured jabber / XMPP client with special features (extensions) for gamers. (e.g. broadcasting a notification when you join a server.. and see which games others play and join them with one click on the game icon beside their name)
GOIM uses the Eclipse Rich Client Plattform as GUI and SMACK as its jabber library.
You can also use GOIM InsideEclipse IDE.
GOIM is still in an early Beta Stage, which means it may contains bugs and misses features.
Main features:
- Send information about which game is played on which server (This is done by sending a presence with extended information. The information which game on which server will also be visible in the show part, so even people using another client (or icq/msn/..) will see what/where you are playing.
- Current supported games are: Unreal Tournament 2004, Live for Speed, Americas Army, TeamSpeak 2 (not a game, but works the same way)
- Basic Messenging and Presence
- Discover and subscribe to Jabber transports (which allows communication with icq, msn, aim, etc. users)

Mail::Message::Convert is a Perl module for conversions between message types.

INHERITANCE

Mail::Message::Convert
is a Mail::Reporter

Mail::Message::Convert is extended by
Mail::Message::Convert::Html
Mail::Message::Convert::HtmlFormatPS
Mail::Message::Convert::HtmlFormatText
Mail::Message::Convert::MailInternet
Mail::Message::Convert::MimeEntity
Mail::Message::Convert::TextAutoformat

SYNOPSIS

Available methods are very converter-specific.

This class is the base for various message (and message parts) converters. When the conversion does not change the contents of the body, most of the converters will return the source object. In any case, an Mail::Message::Body is returned with the conversion applied but as much of the other meta data stored in the source body unchanged.

In most cases, converters are created by Mail::Message when they are needed; have a look at the encode and decoded methods on message objects.

Message::Style is a Perl module to perform stylistic analysis of messages.

SYNOPSIS

use Message::Style;

my $score=Message::Style::score(@article);
# or
my $score=Message::Style::score(@article);

This Perl library does an analysis of a RFC2822 format message (typically email messages or Usenet posts) and produces a score that, in the authors opinion, gives a good indication as to whether the poster is a fsckwit, and therefore whether their message should be ignored.

Mail::Message::Convert::Html is a Perl module to format messages in HTML.

INHERITANCE

Mail::Message::Convert::Html
is a Mail::Message::Convert
is a Mail::Reporter

SYNOPSIS

use Mail::Message::Convert::Html;
my $Html = Mail::Message::Convert::Html->new;

print $html->fieldToHtml($head);
print $html->headToHtmlHead($head);
print $html->headToHtmlTable($head);
print $html->textToHtml($text);
