climm
climm (CLI-based Multi-Messenger) is a portable, small, yet powerful console-based ICQ and XMPP client. It supports password changing, auto-away, creation of new accounts, and other features that makes it a very complete yet simple client. It is able to send and receive messages from the ICQ network, list users that are offline and online (including their online status), search for users by email address, and look up basic (name, UIN, email) information. climm was formerly known as mICQ.

I was never a BeOS user. Providing it for BeOS was only
to help them, but it turned out to not be wanted. There is
now a version that works under BeOS, even an installer,
though not for the latest version.

Re: It should compile under [insert OS here]...but it DOESN'T.
Please, for those of us who use BeOS, Windows, etc., please give source code that will work under those operating systems.
It's non-trivial to work around the huge bugs in BeOS. Grab the latest version from CVS, or use the binary that now _is_ posted on bebits. And don't hesistate to help developing it by giving usefull feedback or fix the remaining issues...
It should compile under [insert OS here]...but it DOESN'T.
Please, for those of us who use BeOS, Windows, etc., please give source code that will work under those operating systems. MICQ is posted on BeBits and says it should compile on BeOS. Well, the news is that it doesn't. MICQ is the only ICQ client I have found that is stable under the OS and is the only one I use. However, it complains that it requires libraries that are for Linux only. For example, it'll exit during the compilation and complain that it can't find the arpa/inet.h file. I am no programmer, but I have run into this problem once before, compiling one bit of source. There is no quick-fix for this. Grabbing those Linux libraries and headers won't work and will still fail trying to compile it. Please provide BeOS code that WILL compile, or at least provide a precomiled BeOS binary inside the package on BeBits. This is extremely frustrating.
