List of msnlib features
The most relevant features are:- protocol version 8
- message send and receive
- complete contact list support
- status change
- add/remove users
- user grouping support
- user information
- multi-language encoding support
- nick and privacy preferences change
- debugging capabilities
- quite portable and platform-independant
- nonblocking i/o
- no external dependencies (only SSL needed for protocol reasons)
- multi-user chat handling
- user blocking (server ignore)
- auto away (cli)
- log history (cli)
- local user ignore (a 'softer' version of user blocking) (cli)
- color themes (cli)
- multiple profiles (cli)
- tab completion (cli)
- hotmail account email notifications (cli)
Note: features marked with (cli) are implemented entirely by the client; the rest are product of the library capabilities.
This is only a very brief list; if you think there is something missing here, I'd really like to hear it, so please drop a line to the mailing list (msnlib-devel@auriga.wearlab.de).
