Screenshots: (It's a pre-beta version!)
We login our MSNCP client (yes, some in Spanish yet; the complete
client will have multilanguage support):
We changed the status (an easy ESC opens the popup menu, it allows command
line params like "/status online" too):
We oppened a chat with a friend (we have complete -and friendly- edition
tools in the message line):
A friend has opened a chat (note the * to mark an active chat) and
he talks to us (note the highlighted) (oops... watching the screenshot
I've found a bug :)):
With a simple and intuitive tab, arrow keys and enter we focused the
chat window to read the message (still are a connection):
The impatient friend is bored and closed the window (yes, in Spanish too...
understand, it's a pre-beta screenshot :)):
Just be patient, the beta release is comming soon...
