I think you're talking about Pidgin. The problem is that it depends on active server listeners - it handles things via socks communication. My mod doesn't do that.

But according the development docs I could possibly write a perl script as a plugin for Pidgin (this is just a cursory glance at the docs)... But first, I really want to get the mod working in the first place before discussing addons.

I really don't even want to do many addons to this thing because I don't think I'd use it myself (and it's hard for me to get excited about programming something I wouldn't use).
