======================= = Poezio = ======================= Homepage: http://codingteam.net/projet/poezio Poezio is a console Jabber client. Its goal is to use anonymous connections to let the user join MultiUserChats. This way, the user don't have to create a Jabber account, exactly like people are using IRC. It doesn't handle contact list at all. Poezio's commands are design to be (if possible) like well known IRC clients (weechat, irssi, mirc). ======================= Authors ======================= Florent Le Coz (louiz') (main developper) ======================= Contact/support ======================= Jabber ChatRoom: poezio@conference.codingteam.net Forum: http://codingteam.net/project/poezio/forum Report a bug: http://codingteam.net/project/poezio/bugs/add ======================= License ======================= Poezio is Free Software.

A: I like it this way. Q: Could you please make a nice ASCII art, so I could understand all the beauty and the complexity of this awesome software ?
