Curphoo (YMSG) http://www.waduck.com/~curphoo/

Personally I don't think YCHT is going down anytime soon, but
here it is anyway a curphoo that uses the YMSG protocol.

Special thanks go to the GAIM people, where I got the Yahoo MD5
login code from. Nice app guys! I'm a big fan.

Many thanks to the authors of SWIG. I'm also a big fan of this tool.

(for more info on the applications above see http://freshmeat.net)

gpan (author of cheetachat) for the advice and tips. Thanks G!

IMParcival, couldn't have done this without you dude. Thanks heaps.
waduck.com rules!

Most of all a Big Thank You go to the Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris:1 people
for testing/using curphoo for their comments constructive or
otherwise and for believing in the author (heh.) and for putting up
with all my (heh.)'s which is entirely daryn_lightblade's fault.

PRIVATE MESSAGES
For those that find typing /tell something something something a tad tedious
I've added #<TAB> support. This looks at your last /tell command string and
puts that string on the input box excluding the actual message.

IGNORES
If you have an old ~/.curphoo/ignorex you would like to convert to
plain text copy pickle2txt.py from the curphoo src directory to ~/.curphoo
and run that script from ~/.curphoo. ie:

cp curphoo-0.3.3/pickle2txt.py ~/.curphoo
cd ~/.curphoo
python2.x pickle2txt.py
rm ignorex

COLORS
If you want to modify the colour scheme run curphoo then quit and
edit ~/.curphoo. The changes will take effect next time you run curphoo
