Some time ago, I posted the code to a p2p instant messaging program to this newsgroup. It was abandoned by me shortly after I posted (no reason, just wanted to work on other things). Anyways, I've worked on this program __a lot__ since I posted it here (including giving the program a name change). The program is now known as "nimsg -- the Network Instant MeSsenGer". So, I thought that I would give everybody here a link to the code: https://github.com/dryad-code/nimsg
Features: Multiple people can chat at the same time (there is no limit), People can pick nicknames to use, and You can post multiple times in a row. nimsg can be used as an alternative for IRC, for those times that you just want to have a small, local chat room. nimsg was written in Python 2.7.3, and does not require any non-standard libraries or modules.
