ssh is exactly one of the reason why ncurses makes sense. If you design a client to be very efficient and sparing in terms of refreshes, even with a slow internet connection you are able to chat freely. I see endless possibilities when it comes to using a dedicated server somewhere in the world for all your messaging-needs. This would also be a good way to circumvent nasty NATs by just "tunneling" it through SSH. Cheers FRIGN -- FRIGN <d...@frign.de>
