news 28 Posted January 2, 2009 Just in time, with the beginning of 2009 we are proud to announce the release of Smuxi 0.6.3! This release is the 3rd bugfix release of the 0.6 series but also contains as usual new features for your joy of upgrading to the new version. Smuxi is available for download from: http://www.smuxi.org/page/Download d383fd0d1f1ff3028e39b7306926ed06 smuxi-0.6.3.tar.gz 68389fa654ae1ff6eefcfde5d366f422 smuxi-0.6.3-bin.tar.gz bb97a96aa2559b403b15c4d35cd1c464 smuxi-0.6.3-bin-win32.zip What is it? =========== Smuxi is an irssi-inspired, flexible, user-friendly and cross-platform IRC client for advanced users, targeting the GNOME desktop. The special feature of Smuxi is that it can be used like the typical irssi+screen combo. The IRC session can run on a server (using `smuxi-server') and a frontend (like `smuxi-frontend-gnome') then can connect to that. The frontend can then be detached and re-attached at some later point without losing any IRC connections or messages. The project website can be found at: http://www.smuxi.org/ What's New? =========== New features: * Full tray icon support. (trac#55 and trac#137) * Configurable line wrapping.
