Smuxi - IRC Client

And here we go again! We're proud to announce the new version of Smuxi, release 0.10 "Unexpected". During the development, 12 bug reports and 8 feature requests in 259 commits were worked on. Notable highlights in this release are: GNOME Frontend ... [More] Enhancements Tabs replaced with chat list. The list is grouped by server and sorted alphabetically. Private (person to person) chats are sorted after public (group) chats. Man pages included for smuix-frontend-gnome (Calvin Buckley) /window command now cycles through tabs with same name (Oliver Schneider) The Windows installer was switched to GTK# 2.12.22 which is more stable than the previous used 2.12.20 version. Adding and editing remote engines works now correctly on Windows and OS X. Text Frontend Enhancements Messages no longer sometimes get sent multiple times Rare crashes with scrolling were fixed Man pages included for smuxi-frontend-stfl (Calvin Buckley) Smuxi Hooks / Scripts / Plugins Support After years of waiting we are more than happy to finally announce the added scripting support in Smuxi! You are probably thinking right now "so which scripting language is it?! C#? VB.NET? JavaScript? Perl? Python? Ruby? Maybe even PHP?" and here comes the best part: ALL OF THEM AND MORE! More? What else there would be... well, if you really want you can write Smuxi hooks in C, C++ or even assembler " /> "How is this possible?" It's Magic! No, just kidding. This is pure Unix technology taken from the 70s ported to a powerful messaging client. If you are know how Git hooks, Nagios checks/plugins or CGI scripts work, then you already know how Smuxi hooks work, if you don't then continue reading this paragraph. Any executable program in a special location (hook points) will be executed when a specific event happens, like receiving a message. This program gets all information passed as environment variables, like who send the message (SENDER), what was the message (MSG), when was it received (MSG_TIMESTAMP_UNIX) etc. This program is also able to execute Smuxi commands by writing hook commands to the standard output. Currently there are 2 main types of Smuxi hooks: protocol-manager hooks: these are mainly events like message-received/sent that the various protocol managers (IRC, Twitter, XMPP, etc) can raise command hooks: these are added Smuxi commands running in the frontend, so you can add /some_cool_command to Smuxi Smuxi hooks are maintained in the smuxi-hooks git repository. So if you want to share your written hook simply create a pull request against that repository on GitHub, other Smuxi users will be very thankful! Right now thre are only 2 proof-of-concept hooks available: now-playing: adds a /np command to Smuxi which shows the currently playing song/video of Banshee using MPRIS2 on D-Bus or YouTube (Chrome only). tinyurl-resolver: resolves all shortened URLs of t.co, bit.ly, etc to the full URL. This was originally an irssi plugin written in Perl. Installing Hooks "Wow, I am completely amazed, but how can I install hooks?" For now you will need to either download the files of the hook into the same location into $HOME/.local/share/smuxi/hooks or by cloning the git repository and symlinking the files. Here is an example for each method: Download Method mkdir -p $HOME/.local/share/smuxi/hooks/frontend/command-manager/command-np/ cd $HOME/.local/share/smuxi/hooks/frontend/command-manager/command-np/ wget https://raw.github.com/meebey/smuxi-hooks/master/now-playing/frontend/command-manager/command-np/now-playing.sh chmod +x now-playing.sh Git Clone Method cd $HOME git clone https://github.com/meebey/smuxi-hooks.git mkdir -p $HOME/.local/share/smuxi/hooks/frontend/command-manager/command-np/ cd $HOME/.local/share/smuxi/hooks/frontend/command-manager/command-np/ ln -s $HOME/smuxi-hooks/now-playing/frontend/command-manager/command-np/now-playing.sh IRC Enhancements mIRC color reset control codes no longer eat characters Codepage WINDOWS 1251 is now available as encoding needed for Cyrillic support. (GH-81, #474) XMPP (Beta) Enhancements Pretty chat states: you can now see if your chat peer is composing a message with a pretty design (Oliver Schneider / George Karavasilev) Find Group Chats support for chat rooms on own server (Oliver Schneider) Resource collisions are no longer happening if resource was not overridden. (Oliver Schneider) Multi user chats (MUC) are automatically rejoined after a reconnect. When "Use Encryption" is enabled, Smuxi will now force SSL/TLS. If that fails it will no longer silently downgrade to unencrypted. If you can suddenly no longer connect, check if "Use Encryption" is correctly configured for that server (as not all XMPP servers support SSL/TLS). Annoying FeatureNotImplemented messages are no longer visible. Added translations. Twitter Enhancements /retweet command and /reply command. Both commands need a short id as parameter so Smuxi knows which tweet you want to retweet or reply to. The short ids are shown in brackets like [42] before each tweet. Example of how a reply to tweet with short id 42 could look like: /reply 42 thanks, Smuxi is awesome! /search command /timeline command (Andrés G. Aragoneses) /follow and /unfollow command On Connect Commands are now executed (Andrés G. Aragoneses) Twitter context menu (Andrés G. Aragoneses) JabbR (Beta) Enhancements Message History: Opening chats will now load and show the previous messages from the JabbR server. Added automatic and manual reconnect support. Added translations. Campfire (Beta) Enhancements Fixed an issue that can lead to a DoS behavior when the session becomes invalid. (Carlos Martín Nieto) Server Enhancements The server will now cleanly shutdown on SIGINT and SIGTERM signals. (Christopher James Halse Rogers) Man pages included for smuxi-server (Calvin Buckley) Updated Translations Smuxi should now be in your language, including: Initial partial Persian (Behrooz Amoozad) Initial partial Telugu (Praveen Illa) French (Clément Bourgeois) Czech (Ondřej Hošek) Chinese Simp (Dean Lee) Swedish (Martin Bagge) Danish (Joe Hansen) German (Bianca Mix) Spanish (Matías Bellone) Partial Turkish (Umut Albayrak) Partial Finnish (Kalle Kaitala) Partial Portuguese (Brazil) (Leonardo Pires Felix) Behind the Scenes The #smuxi-devel IRC channel has moved from OFTC to freenode, everyone interested in Smuxi's development is invited to join. The C# 4.0 compiler dmcs will now automatically be used and no longer needs an MCS=/usr/bin/dmcs override with the configure script. Added dbus-sharp-2.0 support to build system. This GitHub repo is now used as the primary repository including all submodules of Smuxi. This GNOME repo is now the official mirror. If you are using git.qnetp.net in your git remotes (git remote -v) then you should switch that to either https://github.com/meebey/smuxi.git or git://git.gnome.org/smuxi The HACKING file contains now the used codying style of Smuxi. Contributors Contributors to this release are the following people: Mirco Bauer (165 commits) Oliver Schneider (48 commits) Andrés G. Aragoneses (22 commits) Calvin Buckley (6 commits) Christopher James Halse Rogers (4 commits) Carlos Martín Nieto (2 commits) George Karavasilev (artwork) Umut Albayrak (translations) Praveen Illa (translations) Ondřej Hošek (translations) Matías Bellone (translations) Martin Bagge (translations) Leonardo Pires Felix (translations) Kalle Kaitala (translations) Joe Hansen (translations) Dean Lee (translations) Clément Bourgeois (translations) Bianca Mix (translations) Behrooz Amoozad (translations) Thank you very much for your contributions to Smuxi!

And here we go again! We're proud to announce the new version of Smuxi, release 0.9 "The Fix". During the development, 19 bug reports and 10 feature requests in 235 commits were worked on making this release a major feature and bugfix release. ... [More] Notable highlights in this release are: Enhanced User Interface Smuxi Symbolic Icon Theme for Windows and Mac OS X (George Karavasilev) Nick Completion: prioritize active nicks for tab completion (Ondrej Hošek) Nicklist: The nicklist automatically resizes to the longest nick. On Mac OS X the copy/paste command key shortcuts are now working Text Frontend Enhancements Topic Support: channels are now showing the topic (Ondrej Hošek) Line Wrapping: messages longer than the terminal width are now properly wrapped into multiple lines (Ondrej Hošek) Message/Nick Colors: Nick names and also messages are now shown with their colors, giving a much improved experience. OpenBSD Support: The STFL frontend now runs on OpenBSD. JabbR (Beta) Support SignalR's JabbR Support: As if IRC, Twitter, XMPP, and Campfire weren't enough Smuxi is now capable of talking with SignalR's famous JabbR web chat. If you are looking for support for SignalR, ASP.NET MVC, NancyFx, EntityFramework, NuGet, RavenDB or just a real modern and cool web chat? Then this is the right place for you! Included Features: Join rooms (/join) Listing available rooms (/list) Nickname completion Highlight of own nickname and user defined highlight words Sending/receiving public and private messages Twitter Enhancements Twitter v1.1: Twitter removed their v1 API on the 11 June which broke Smuxi and many other Twitter applications.

During the development, 10 bug reports and 14 feature requests in 295 commits were worked on making this release a major feature and minor bugfix ... [More] release. Notable highlights in this release are: Enhanced User Interface UI overhaul: Massively revamped menus and toolbars as designed by Georgi Karavasilev (me4oslav). Quick replies: You can now query people by clicking on their nickname. Join bar follows the current network, ctrl+x switches the network. The /exec command is now supported, so now you can execute commands right from Smuxi. (/exec -c, /exec -o) Size matters: The entry grows and shrinks automatically or manually, and the topic bar changes size too. Say goodbye to pointless scrollbars! (Oliver Schneider) Little things: New tab completion cycling (Ondřej Hošek), reconnect menu entry in a server tab context menu, search from the person list, better support for Emacs key bindings in GTK+ (Carlos), better Messaging Menu support for newer Ubuntu versions. No more hanging gnome-shell for a few seconds when a notification is shown. The Windows and Mac OS X package now ship an Faenza icon theme by default. Mac OS X Enhancements Massive OS X improvements were brought into this release. IRC URL handler: Clicking on irc:// links can bring up Smuxi. Behaviour: Smuxi has Macintosh menus (including global menu) and behaviour. Shortcuts: Smuxi has fully functional keyboard shortcuts on Mac. Font: Uses Menlo and fallbacks to Monaco font by default. Inspired by changes described here. Kudos to Jonathan Pryor and Michael Lutonsky for OS X guidance and testing! smuxi-server launch script is now included in the Mac package. Text Frontend Enhancements Color: The navigation bar displays color for highlights, messages and events just like the GNOME frontend does. The Basics: Nickname completion, window closing, config management through a new /config command, and better Xterm detection support are all in here. More stable Campfire Support (Beta) IRC, Twitter and XMPP weren't sufficient to Carlos Martín Nieto, so he added Campfire, a completely new protocol to Smuxi. The Campfire engine supports: Automatically opens active rooms on connect. List and search of available rooms using the Find Group Chat dialog. /join command: opens rooms /topic command: changes topic of a room /upload command: retrieves uploads XMPP (Beta) Enhacenments There are massive XMPP enhancements.

As longingly awaited I am very happy to announce Smuxi 0.8.10 codenamed "Tracy". During the development 8 bug reports and 15 feature requests in 136 commits were worked on making this release a major feature and minor bugfix release. Notable ... [More] highlights in this release are: Integrated Spell Checking Everyone knows the "how do you spell that word again?" situation and either you don't care and send a possible typo or you go checking a dictionary which is kind of annoying. The good news is: with this release you no longer need to do that, as Smuxi includes automatic spell checking while you type messages. The bad news is that this feature is currently limited to Linux builds, and thus OSX and Windows build do not ship with it. The installers need to be extended and I haven't found pre-compiled OSX nor Windows binaries for the GTK+ spell checking library. Favicons for Server Tabs Distinguishing server tabs can be difficult, especially if you have plenty of them. All server tabs have the same icon so you need to search for the right name. I wondered why this issue doesn't happen so easily with a web browser which usually also has lots of tabs open. Besides the page name there is the favicon right in front. So why can't Smuxi make use of that simple but effective technology? Well, now it does! You connect to a known network, and Smuxi will download and show the favicon of the website. It just works and does everything in the background for you. Quick Join Bar One thing that makes IRC really difficult for new comers is the important IRC concept that channels are network specific. So what happens is people try to find / join the channel they are looking for but on the wrong network. They have to connect to the right server/network and then switch to the right tab, before they can join the channel (using the /join command or join dialog). The developers of Smuxi had a brainstorming session and came up with something that should be easy enough for anyone to use and finally solves the issue: the quick join bar. You know which channel you want to join and which network, you enter the channel name, select the network from the list and hit the "Join Chat" button and you are done. Now Smuxi will do just the right thing for you and connects to that network if needed, joins the channel if needed, or switches to the channel if you are already there! Click here for a screencast of the Quick Join Bar in action Indention of multi-line messages Messages on IRC and also Twitter are often longer than a single line in Smuxi can show, thus it has to be split into a second line or more. The issue here is that the continuation line looks cluttered because it doesn't align with the first line. Here you can see an example for this issue: Ewww, that looks ugly, doesn't it? I will make this one short, here is the cure with indented multi-line messages: Enhanced Text Frontend The text frontend which is still in alpha state has received the following enhancements: new /exit command, new /help command, regular and xterm window title, and, several fixed crashes. Enhanced Commands The /network command by default shows now all connected and also available networks: The /connect command now allows you to connect by network name like this: /connect freenode Updated Translations Portuguese (Pedro Ribeiro) Chinese Simp (Dean Lee) Danish (Joe Hansen) Swedish (Martin Bagge) Russian (Yuri Myasoedov) New Translations Croatian (Matias M) partially Polish (lukasznaw) Contributors Contributors to this release are the following people: Mirco Bauer (126 commits) Bianca Mix (translations) Dean Lee (translations) Joe Hansen (translations) Yuri Myasoedov (translations) Pedro Ribeiro (translations) Matias M (translations) Martin Bagge (translations) lukasznaw (translations) Thank you very much for your contributions to Smuxi! Already horny? Go here and get some! Update: Smuxi 0.8.10.1 About 2 months after the 0.8.10 release, Smuxi 0.8.10.1 with only important bugfixes and translation updates was released. This release includes the following 6 bugfixes: smuxi-server now honors the timezone of tweets, fixed a connection crash with InspIRCd-2.0 servers, quick join no longer opens another network tab, closing chats no longer crashes Smuxi sometimes, /connect irc.some-server.com works again and focusing the message area moves the focus back to the entry again.
