[gaim-migrate @ 253] Sat May 20 09:56:16 UTC 2000 EWarmenhoven - That 2 second delay in updates is gone, and I think it's actually faster than the TOC code now. - I figured out why it was segfaulting. I'm stupid sometimes. - I figured out why the idle times were appearing bizarrely. Once again, I'm stupid sometimes. - You can now be idle - You can now get a user's info (sort of - use the debug window) (still no away messages though....) - You can now be away - You can now set your info (but not your dir info - yet) - I think it's almost at a point where it's ready for use. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>

Build:

./configure ; make 
for the stock version.  ./configure --help to see what option you can get.

You need GTK 1.2.3.  I don't wanna hear about it, if you can't get it to
work under a lower version.

Run:

type "./gaim"

If you want to build as a GNOME applet:
./configure --enable-gnome ; make
then su to root and run "make install". 
Afterwards panel->Add applet->Network->Gaim should be there.

Notes:

This should now compile under Solaris, Digital Unix, Irix, etc w/o a
problem.
This compiles without warnings on Linux-x86 2.2.10 glibc2.1, GTK 1.2.3 system.
If you get warnings on something else, let me know and I'll check it out.
If you get errors, upgrade to the latest GTK-1.2 before bothering me.

The resulting executable is standalone, so you can put it in /usr/bin or
whatever.

The panel (if you made an applet) requires certain things to be in certain
places, but the Makefile/configure script should figure things out for you.
Make sure to enable GNOME sounds if you want gaim sounds for the applet.

Send me bug reports.  The web page is http://www.marko.net/gaim and the ftp
site is ftp://ftp.marko.net/pub/gaim

Keep your eyes out for updates, and I'll try to keep the program maintained.
