Pidgin is a GTK+-based multi-protocol instant messaging client. It is
|
|
compatible with IRC, Jabber, Gadu-Gadu, Novell GroupWise, and Zephyr
|
|
networks.
|
|
|
|
Pidgin supports many features of the various networks, such as file
|
|
transfer, away messages, typing notification. It also goes beyond that
|
|
and provides many unique features. A few popular features are Buddy
|
|
Pounces, which give the ability to notify you, send a message, play a
|
|
sound, or run a program when a specific buddy goes away, signs online,
|
|
or returns from idle; and plugins, consisting of text replacement, a
|
|
buddy ticker, extended message notification, iconify on away, and more.
|
|
|
|
Pidgin integrates well with GNOME and KDE's system trays. This allows
|
|
you to work with Pidgin without requiring the buddy list window to
|
|
be up at all times.
