IPMSG For Linux
By Angsuman Chakraborty, Gaea News NetworkFriday, April 13, 2007
I talked about xmemo as possible ipmsg alternative for Linux. Unfortunately I found it very much inferior to ipmsg. IPMSG is a messaging client for Windows which also is able to do super-fast file and directory transfer. Once you have got used to ipmsg, it is hard to live without. Fortunately I found a good alternative to ipmsg for Linux.
The answer is ipmsg itself, run using wine! You get identical look-and-feel as windows, with the same capability. You do need to refresh after launching the window but that’s about it. I am very happy about getting ipmsg back.
Do you know any better alternatives?
BTW: Did I mention that I am using tomboy, a mono application, for note taking and I think it is a much better alternative than Microsoft Outlook’s Notes.

Much better solution: install the OpenFire Jabber server in your LAN and use Jabber clients. |
