SNIMMER is software that serves as a mediator and relay for instant messaging on a single network.
SNIMMER is a software that aims to solve the problem of non-interoperability between different instant messaging networks. With SNIMMER, you can easily send and receive instant messages from any IM network. This software is designed specifically to help webmasters chat with visitors to their website using any instant messenger.
To use SNIMMER, you will need a few things. First, you need an internet connection and an IM account that you always use. Then, you will need to create a set of IM accounts for all the networks that you want to receive visitors from (AOL, ICQ, Yahoo, MSN). It is essential that these accounts are brand new and not used for personal chat, otherwise, SNIMMER will clash with you online. Additionally, you will need a web server where you can run a CGI script, Python installed on your web server, and the python-xmpp library installed as well.
Deploying SNIMMER requires some knowledge of how to add CGI scripts to pages and how to display results. The software supports various jabber servers and transports, and you can deploy your own or use publicly available ones. The server for your jabber transport can be found on this page.
To install SNIMMER on your system, go to the website and download and unpack the software. Next, open credentials.py in a text editor and edit it according to your preferences. This file includes the login information for your IM accounts, and you can uncomment the sections for the networks you want to use. Finally, you need to specify a spool directory and a blocked IP address file.
Overall, SNIMMER is a great software for anyone who wants to interconnect different instant messaging networks. With its easy installation and configuration, you will be able to use it in no time.
