Description : Emacs libpurple integration (C daemon and elisp client)
ELIM is an elisp instant messenger daemon (using libpurple), with a
sexp based control protocol. It comes with a reference implementation
of a client library (elim.el) and a reference IM client (garak.el)
built on top of that.
* * *
This provides IM (and IRC) in Emacs using purple (pidgin), which has
orders more mindshare than bitlbee or jabber-el. I therefore expect
it to grow features and fix bugs more rapidly. For example, of the
three only garak supports in-band XMPP registration/subscription.
