Hi phil, There is indeed no doc about how to do a minimalistic client using gajim backend. But I would be happy to help you with that. You plan to create a client in curses or something like that? To help you, you chould read src/gajim.py. It's the UI that you need to copy (and remove every graphical things) for idlequeue, there is a comment in this file: # in a nongui implementation, just call: # gajim.idlequeue = IdleQueue() , and # gajim.idlequeue.process() each foo miliseconds You also need to parse config file (see parser variable in gajim.py) Don't hesitate to ask more info -- Yann _______________________________________________ Gajim-devel mailing list Gajim-devel@gajim.org https://lists.gajim.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/gajim-devel
