Okay, I managed to bring ERC + BitlBee up and running. While it's
much better than mICQ or Licq (from within Emacs), there are still
some annoying things, in particular:
* There is no permanent list of all "buddies" and their status.
* When a new message arrives, the notification (i.e. the "[#]" on
the command line) is too subtle. The IRC window is not in the
front, there is not even a bell.
* All boring system messages like "buddy XY is now offline" trigger
the notification, too.
Has anybody tried the alternatives? Are Circe or rcirc better
suited for BitlBee?
Tschö,
Torsten.
