    http://clusterrr.com/ is the homepage of CLirc

    check this out though.
    pick a local server.
    http://www.bitlbee.org/main.php/servers.html
    and between this
    http://princessleia.com/bitlbee.php
    and the bottom part of this page
    http://www.ds-xtra.com/IRCDS

    set clirc up to open your msn,aim,yahoo and whatever else.


    personally, when i run clirc, its set to auto load and sign into 2 irc servers with 2 irc rooms in each, my msn and my yahoo. that fills all 3 server spots.


    problem is, for the msn, only contacts that are ###@hotmail.com and ###@msn.com seem to show up on the friend list. I am trying to figure this out. but yahoo works fine.


    Edit: also, when it asks for: register password (change password to a unique password for bitlbee)
    enter something which will be what you type in each time you log onto the server. Example: register 1234

    after you are done setting up, when you log onto the server you will enter: identify 1234
    then it will ramble off a bunch of commands as it logs in and stuff.

    If you go into irc server settings and enter your password into the password field, you won't have to enter the identify command anymore. it'll log into it automatically.
