|  Simple messaging client and server, allowing you to send messages
|  from computer running xtell client to computer running xtelld server.
|  Can be used as replacement for write(1).
`----

,----[ ~/bin/pkgdesc xipmsg ]
| Package: xipmsg
| Description: A pop up style message communication software
|  IP Messenger is a pop up style message communication software
|  for multi platforms. It is based on TCP/IP(UDP).
|  Xipmsg is the X11 version of IP Messenger. It can communicate
|  with IP Messengers for Windows/MacOS.
