I developed this for myself over time, first to provide
person-specific auto-answer functionality, then to test Skype API
issues, and ultimately to do most things I do in Skype.  It does not
even pretend to replace the GUI entirely I think, though you can do
most things with either interface by now.  Personally, I mix things
sort of like this:  I type text with people in the GUI, call people
from Clisk, read profiles in Clisk with the WhoIs command, accept and
send files in the GUI because that's one thing the API won't allow,
read voicemails exclusively in Clisk, and handle contact detail
requests in both places.

What are the advantages to using this over the main Skype client? Skype works 
great with VoiceOver. Terminal works, but I don't think that I'd prefer to use 
terminal apps over GUI apps and VoiceOver.

Are their extra features not available from the GUI?

Subject: Clisk 2.1.0 is finally out

The Command Line Interface for Skype (Clisk) 2.1.0 is released.  There are many 
enhancements and new commands since Clisk 2.0.0.  You can reach details about 
the updates, a download link, and the online manual (which is also finally up 
to date!) at http://www.dlee.org/skype/clisk/

Updates include
        - Commands for listing contacts by online status, handling contact 
detail requests, listing members of chats and calls, and listing events like in 
Skype 3.8.
        - An easy way to message multiperson chats from the Clisk window.
        - Fixes to Join and AutoJoin functionality.
        - Better support of conferencing on MacOS.
        - Better formatting of chat messages and user selection lists in the 
Clisk window.
        - Less meaningless noise from Skype 4.x call termination, Mac Skype 
mood text, etc.
        - Files to help run Clisk on Linux and MacOS.  See the online manual 
for directions.

This is not a comprehensive list of changes; see the above web site for that.
