Free im software for linux

The RSS-IM Gateway allows any site with an RSS feed to make their feed available via the IM network of their choice. It is very easy to set up.
Just create a new IM nick on your favorite network (links here) - something like "MySiteIM" always works - fill out the blanks in the config.im file, and your headlines are viewable on that network automatically, including from most cell phones if you use AIM or MSN. It works with AIM, ICQ, YIM and Jabber.
This project is a derivative of the SDBA Revolution IM Application Server version 1.85 and includes all files you will need. You will need to have an uptodate version of Perl with XML::RSS, in addition to the other libraries required.
Using:
- Make sure Perl is set up correctly, with all libraries (including XML::RSS!).
- Open config.im and put in your chosen nick and password for the bot, edit the network (default is AIM), and put in the URL to your feed.
- Start sdba.pl from the command line.
- Message the nick you chose from any IM client.

Kf is a Jabber-based instant messaging client.
Jabber is an open-source, XML-based, highly extensible IM protocol.
Main features:
- see presence of your contacts
- chat and message them
- take part in conferences
- browse, search and register in transports
- view your message archive
- ...and much more!

A frontend for VisualBoy Advance, a Nintendo GameBoyAdvance emulator using SDL. The first versions was qt-dependent, instead the new is better integrated in KDE and so depends on it.

It has a dialog for all the settings of the emulator (by command line), and a favorites tab for the most played roms. My TODO list in the package is quite blank, but this is because Im not the time to actually work a lot on it, the feature Im taking a look for is custom options for favorites, but I need to take a look best for them.

Important note! KVBA 0.6.1 and future versions will need KDE 3.2, instead KVBA 0.6 and earliers might work also on earlier KDE versions.

It also has a partially-working keypad configuration option.

Important! I stopped maintaining this app. I have no more time for develop it as I wish, so Im simply giving up.

Habotat is a small, lightweight application server for hosting IM Services (more commonly referred to as Bots).
Bots are small, specialized programs that you can communicate with using an Instant Messenger (IM) client; they show up in your Buddy List and are always there to do your bidding.
Habotat is written entirely in Java and is known to run on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and Windows. A simple API is provided to allow for the creation of new Bots.
The Habotat server supports dynamic hot-deployment, so Bots can be loaded into the server and activated on-the-fly and even rebuilt and reloaded without requiring a server restart.
Enhancements:
- Minor bugfixes were made in the AOL IM adapter, the eBay sniping bot, and the HTTP cookie management routines in the API.

Flagedit is a CLI USE flags and package keywords editor for Gentoo Linux. It lets you edit the USE flags of /etc/make.conf, as well as the /etc/portage/package.use file.
Flagedit project also allows you to easily edit /etc/portage/package.keywords.
Flagedit allows you to edit the use flags or the keywords for a particular
ebuild, or for the whole system. a backup is done for each modified file, named
file.old.
Usage: flagedit [PACKAGE] [ACTIONS | -- KEYWORD_ACTIONS] [ OPTIONS ]
Examples:
flagedit net-im/amsn --show # shows the use flag set for net-im/amsn
flagedit net-im/amsn +gnome # adds the gnome use flag to net-im/amsn
flagedit net-im/amsn -kde +xmms # adds the xmms use flag and set the -kde one
flagedit net-im/amsn %kde # reset the kde use flag (its removed from the line)
flagedit %kde # reset the global use flag (its removed in make.conf)
flagedit +gnome -qt # add gnome and -qt in make.conf
flagedit net-im/amsn -- %x86 # reset the x86 keyword for net-im/amsn
flagedit net-im/amsn -- +~ppc +~x86 # adds the ~ppc and ~x86 keywords for net-im/amsn
flagedit net-im/amsn -- % # resets the keywords for this package
flagedit -- +~x86 # sets ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to "~x86" in /etc/make.conf
You can mix the flags and keywords :
flagedit net-im/amsn +gnome -- +~x86
PACKAGE is a package name (like dev-ruby/ruby-atk). If no package is given,
flagedit will edit the maine USE flags (in make.conf), or the main
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS (in make.conf)
ACTIONS are :
+FLAG enable the FLAG. Example : +sse
-FLAG disable the FLAG. Example : -sse
%FLAG reset the FLAG to default. Example : %sse
% reset the whole flags of PACKAGE to default. In this case, PACKAGE is not optional
KEYWORD_ACTIONS are :
+KEYWORD enable the keyword. Example : +x86
-KEYWORD disable the KEYWORD. Example : -~x86
%KEYWORD reset the KEYWORD to default. Example : %x86
% reset the whole keywords of PACKAGE to default. In this case, PACKAGE is not optional
OPTIONS are :
--package-file specify an alternate package.use file (default is /etc/portage/package.use)
--keywords-file specify an alternate package.keywords file (default is /etc/portage/package.keywords)
--make-conf-file specify an alternate make.conf file (default is /etc/make.conf)
--portage-dir specify an alternate portage directory path (default is /usr/portage)
--alpha-order sort the flags or keywords alphabetically instead of keeping the original order
--show dont edit, display the flags or keywords of the PACKAGE. If no package is given, display the system USE flags or the system ACCEPT_KEYWORDS.
--list dont edit, display the entire list of possible flags or possible keywords.
--desc if specified with --list, display the flags or keywords description also.
--keywords specifies that actions are to be done on keywords, not on use flags
-- same as --keywords
--strict if a specified flag or keyword name is invalid, dies, instead of just warning.
--nowarn if a specified flag or keyword name is invalid, dont warn.
--help this help
--version prints the version
Enhancements:
- The help display now fits in 80 columns.

Lucidity hopes to become the next generation graphical user interface focused on speed and usability.
Lucidity is being developed in Ruby and at this point Im the only developer. Although not much information is given on this site (right now, that is) I have a pretty good idea of where Im aiming towards with this interface.
Enhancements:
- This is a (testing only) local chat application that allows two or more instances of a chat application to communicate with each other.

bMotion-lib is an exciting project started by simsea; its bMotion implemented in C++ with a module that links it into eggdrop (i.e. no more TCL). bMotion is Highly Advanced, but also Highly Incomplete.

sim has hacked a lot of stuff together (thats the leet version of hacked not the imcompetent version). I dont really know C++, but since I wrote bMotion to teach myself TCL, it seems reasonable that bMotion-lib would be a good way to teach myself C++.

What does this mean for the original bMotion? Well, Im not abandoning it, but Im not going to be so active on it now (not that Ive been enormously active on it recently anyway). Its a lot of code, and its quite a mess - especially since Im now trying to do things with it that TCL is a bit crap for (like storing data and running code, mostly).
