Instantbird 0.1.3.1

Instantbird 0.1.3.1 offers you a professional multi-protocol Instant Messaging client which can connect to all your different IM accounts.

It uses the Mozilla rendering engine to display IMs, and the Pidgin libpurple to connect to the different networks.

Instantbird is a free and open source software. This means that you are allowed to use, distribute and modify it.

Major Features:

1. Proxy support: you can now use HTTP or Socks proxies.
2. Typing notifications: you can see when the person you are talking to is typing.
3. Automatic Reconnection: when a non fatal connection error occurs (e.g. network failure), the account is automatically reconnected after a few seconds.
4. Idleness: servers are notified when you are idle so that your status can be changed.
5. Better handling of chat rooms: the topic of the room is displayed, the list of participants is displayed, IRC commands work.
6. Findbar: It is now easy to search in a conversation, with a findbar similar to the Firefox one. A notable difference is that it searches backwards by default, so that the most recent matching messages are found first.
7. Universal build: The mac binary now also works on PPC Macs.

Enhancements:

• Connection issue with ICQ fixed: the protocol plugin has been upgraded.
• Better stability: a few crashes fixed.
