<br>
<h3>installation</h3>
<p>get the module <kbd>emacs-jabber</kbd> from <a href="http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=88346">Sourceforge CVS</a>.
additionally, if you don't have Gnus 5.10 (<kbd>M-x gnus-version</kbd> will tell), you will need <kbd>hex-util.el</kbd>
and <kbd>sha1-el.el</kbd> from <a href="http://quimby.gnus.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gnus/lisp/">Gnus CVS</a>.
copy these to a directory in your emacs load path.</p>
<p>in your .emacs file add the call <kbd>(require 'jabber)</kbd>. you can also use auto-load.</p>
<p>set your account details with <kbd>M-x jabber-customize</kbd>.  then, type <kbd>M-x jabber-connect</kbd> to connect,
and <kbd>M-x jabber-send-presence</kbd> to send initial presence.</p>
<p>please note that the current version is dependant on gnu-emacs-21 - it depends on xml.el (which you can download separately) and on some newer functions.</p>
<h3>howto</h3>
<p>as jabber.el is still very young, you'll have to be rather emacs-savvy to use it (or at least have the willingness to learn a little).<br></p>
<p>to connect to the server, call <i>(<b>jabber-connect</b>)</i>.<br>
call it from the pull-down menu or call interactively : [M-x jabber-connect RET] and enter the parameters from the minibuffer.</p>
<p>after a successful connection, a new buffer should appear, named <b>*-jabber-*</b>. this buffer is your roster view. click any user with the mouse to start a 1-on-1 chat.</p>
<p>alternatively, you can also call <i>(<b>jabber-chat-with</b> jid)</i>.<br>
for example : (jabber-chat-with "ob...@ma...")<br>
or [M-x jabber-chat-with RET]. in that case you will be asked for a jid. use the TAB key to complete a partial jid from the roster. (nice, eh?)</p>
<p>to send a message, call <i>(<b>jabber-send-message</b> to body subject type)</i><br>
for example : (jabber-send-message "ob...@ma..." "hi there" "" "") will appear as an instant message.<br>
(jabber-send-message "ob...@ma..." "tom, you are the best" "the truth, nothing but the truth" "normal") too.<br>
(jabber-send-message "ob...@ma..." "hya" "" "chat") will appear as a 1-on-1 chat<br>
of course, this too can be called interactively : [M-x jabber-send-message RET] (with jid completion, like anywhere else).</p>
<p>to change your status, call <i>(<b>jabber-send-presence</b> show status)</i>.<br>
for example : (jabber-send-presence "" "Online") to appear online, or (jabber-send-presence "dnd" "copulating") to appear lucky.<br>
needless to say, this can be called from the minibuffer too. do [M-x jabber-send-presence RET] and enjoy TAB completion from "", "away", "xa", "dnd" or "chat" for the first parameter (show).</p>
<p>when a new chat message arrives, it is sent to the chat buffer ("*jabber-chat-:-user*"). if such a buffer does not exist it is created. in this buffer, all straight keystrokes are being captured for starting the reply command. to send a line, simply start typing...</p>
<p>all messages are converted to 1-on-1 chats (simply because i find that more convinient).</p>
