Yes, I get your point and will check that. I thought that a gaim plugin
will be the easiest to get going. Of course cross-platform will be a
very good thing(tm) to have, but I guess I'd be starting on linux as the
easiest (for me) arch.

Will try to get some more ideas and keep posting here if any progress is
made.
