This is primarily a maintenance release, with proven features from the 0.12.0 experimental tree backported to the stable tree. However, a number of new features/behavior changes managed to creep in (such as /status and the HTML renderer changes). naim is a console client for AOL Instant Messenger, ICQ, Internet Relay Chat, and The lily CMC. Development work is done on Linux, but naim should work on any system with an ANSI C compiler, BSD sockets, and ncurses. This includes operating systems such as BeOS, FreeBSD, Mac OS 10, NetBSD, and Microsoft Windows using Cygwin. naim has been in development since October, 1998. More information is available from: http://naim.n.ml.org/ ,--------------------------------------------------------------------------. | To install or upgrade this package, run the Cygwin Net Release Setup | | Program, available from [http://cygwin.com/setup.exe].

[FT FEA] (backported from 0.12.0) /names now displays the entire, correct list in all situations, including initial join. [IRC fea] (backported from 0.12.0) Unhandled numerics used in WHOIS now show up in /whois output. [TOC fea] AIM Directory entry is now forced clear on connect. [TOC fea] Messages that are too long to send are now rejected. [UI FEA] Messages that have been rejected by a protocol driver (for example because they are too long) are returned to the sender. [UI fea] (backported from 0.12.0) The idea of a "generic" window has been removed, and you can no longer /delbuddy someone with an open window (you must /close the window first). [UI fea] (backported from 0.12.0) New $nameformat and $nameformat_name to control the format names appear as in the window list window, and elsewhere. [UI fea] (backported from 0.12.0) New $autosort. 0 means no window list sorting, 1 means sort by name, 2 means sort into groups, then by name. [UI fea] New /status command, including naim version and information about window status. [UI bug] Online help for /save did not show the file name argument. Fixed. [UI fea] SIGHUP now re-reads .naimprofile by default. [UI bug] Possible reference to free()d memory in certain uncommon situations pointed out by Michael Wilson. Fixed. [UI fea] (backported from 0.12.0) /jump now accepts connection:window syntax (/jump EFnet:#naim works the same as /EFnet:jump #naim). [UI fea] /open now takes you to newly opened windows, removing the need to /jump after /open. [UI fea] /closeall now skips windows with queued messages pending. [UI bug] Potential NULL pointer dereference in Tab completion found. Fixed. [UI fea] The protocol drivers already take care of populating empty buddy lists when that was a problem, so naim no longer adds you to your own buddy list if you don't have one at startup. [UI fea] Various cleanups in the HTML renderer to handle stacked tags with missing close tags. If there is any questionable behaviour at all, please contact me directly at , on AIM as "naim help," or on EFnet or Undernet IRC in #naim.
