I'm slowly migrating from irssi to sic for IRC conversations, setting up up a hotkey in dwm to popup dmenu, which feeds into sic. sic will be displayed in either the root window or a terminal. I'm still figuring out the IPC for this setup to work sanely.
My question however, is anyone familiar with a jabber client similar to sic? I've looked at freetalk and mcabber. freetalk seems more CLI oriented, but I doesn't seem that piping friendly to me. mcabber uses ncurses as an interface, but already has a few howtos on sending notifications and data to text files, which means I can get notifications similar to sic. But I'd have to utilize the application itself rather than a dmenu pipe. Anyone? -- stadik.net
