I've put some "preview" patches up at

They haven't had much testing yet.

Getting on AIM
----------------------
You do not need to be an AOL subscriber to use AIM. You simply need an AIM
client and an AIM handle.
Windows and Macintosh Users:
You can download the standard AIM client and register for a login here:
<http://aim.aol.com/>http://aim.aol.com/.
Unix/Linux Users:
You can download the TiK AIM client, which requires Tcl/Tk 8.1 or later,
here: <http://tik.sourceforge.net/>http://tik.sourceforge.net/. Or you can
get a stripped-down version of TiK, called MiniTik, here:
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/minitik/>http://sourceforge.net/projects/minitik/.
Or you can get GAIM, an AIM client written in C using the Gtk+ toolkit,
here: <http://gaim.sourceforge.net/>http://gaim.sourceforge.net/. Then you
can get an AIM handle here: <http://aim.aol.com/>http://aim.aol.com/.
Getting into the AOLserver Chat Room
--------------------------------------------------------
You may be able to get into the AOLserver chat room by clicking this link:
<aim:GoChat?RoomName=AOLserver>aim:GoChat?RoomName=AOLserver.
If that doesn't work, try inviting yourself to the chat room.
For the Windows or Macintosh client, select People -> Send Chat
Invitation. You will get a "Chat Invitation" dialog box. Clear out any
names in the "Screen names to invite" box and type in your own screen
name. Clear out anything in the "Chat room" field and type in "AOLserver".
Then click send.
For the TiK client, try this: in your "Buddy List" window, you should have
a button labelled "Chat". Click it. In the "Screen Names to Invite" box,
put your own handle and delete any others. In the "Location" or "Name of
Buddy Chat Room" box, put "AOLserver". Then click "Send" or "Invite".
As a last resort if nothing else works, try sending an instant message to
quixotus (that's me) or ianmfink asking for an invitation.
If you're using TiK, then you can add the AOLserver chat room to your
menus. Choose Packages/Quick Chat/New Quick Chat from the menu bar. For
"Menu Label", put "AOLserver". For "Chat Room", again put "AOLserver". For
"Exchange", put 4 (which is the default, so you shouldn't need to change
it). Then click "Ok". Now if you pull down the Packages/Quick Chat menu,
you should see an item named "AOLserver", which will bring up the
AOLserver chat room.
