Try using the '-v option'.

You may want to install/use Cygwin as well. It provides a nice comfy bash, perl,
ssh, and lots of other unix/linux-like utilities. Without leaving windows.

You'll have to add the -v option on your putty invocation, unless you use the
command-line version from cygwin.

Anyway, I use gaim with aol and msn accounts.
What are your favorite flavors?
	ICQ is still the best ever!  All others are cheap rip-offs!  On that 
note, bring back Pow-Wow

	I use Trillian Pro 2.01 under Windows...on AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, and 
Jabber all day every day...all use Trillian to connect to the GameSurge 
(formerly GamesNet) IRC network.

I use Trillian for AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Y!.

I prefer AIM, but also use MSN for a couple of people. I connect to ICQ and
Y!, even though I never use them.

 I want to know who supports which Instant Messenger protocols.  Maybe
 name your first choice and then all the rest, or give a hierarchy, or
 whatever.

That's what Jabber is for. Inter-IM-protocol gateway. Check it out.

2004-02-19 Thread Ian Monroe
Most of my friends use AIM and some use MSN Messenger. When I went to Spain 
this summer, everyone seemed to be using MSN Messenger, the one exception 
being a gal from France who used AIM.

So really, whatever you think about the protocols, you don't get much choice. 
Its what your friends use. And outside of Yahoo! which often breaks Gaim, 
they're all the sames. You do get a choice of IM software, I use Gaim since 
it seems to be the best. It routinely ranks as one of the most active 
SourceForge projects (probably due to their internationalization efforts, but 
they do put out new releases pretty frequently). And its easy to use 
encryption. Occasionally I run into problems with file transfers and with all 
the updates for Gaim, for some reason my nickname aliases sometimes disappear 
or my prefences will change. Its written in GTK, so its pretty ugly.

I think it would be cool to have a on-campus Jabber server. In the past 
external Internet goes down, and IM with it, which is silly since most of the 
people I want to IM live on campus anyways. I started playing around with 
Jabberd (and couldn't get it work), but I now see there is Jabberd 2 out, 
might as well just try that instead.

 It seems weird that we can all search for each other's email address,
 but have to explicitly ask about IM.  This could be such a powerful tool
 for everyone if there was a nice/easy way to get people on your lists.
 Sure, it could be used maliciously/annoyingly too, but I think it'd be
 worth the tradeoff.

 Anyway, I use gaim with aol and msn accounts.

Well, that's certainly a question you don't see every day. I would think that 
the major bootloaders would have no problem booting MS-DOS, I assume the 
bootloading process has stayed the same. Esoteric questions like that are 
probably better served with a Google search, I would suggesting searching for 
ms dos lilo (lilo being the name of a major Linux boot loader) or searching 
for ms dos grub boot loader (grub also being the name of a boot loader, 
but is a noun so you have to add the boot loader part.) I doubt a machine 
with DOS on it would have the hard drive space for dual-booting, so the 
question is probably academic anyway.

As far as your previous message, all of those machines (with the exception of 
the Amiga... you would install Linux on that mostly for its novelty value I 
think, I would certainly prefer AmigaOS) would make fine servers and 
mediciore desktop machines. Hardware compatablity issues do not come from the 
processors, but the sound cards, video cards etc. On older machines like 
those, problems often arise.
