in thread messenger filetransfer and tcl/ruby/php inline module out of date?

1. the module SCP and SFTP are no messengermodules. Also the other side of the Client doesnt have my Script. The OSCAR protocol (ICQ/AIM without the filetransfer), also jabber::lite/net:jabber

2. rubyish is a nice way but doesnt help to execute the ruby code completly in perl.
The "Ruby"-module is not the easiest way to use and only ruby 1.86 or 1.8.7 is possible but not 1.9x

3. yes, but its with the GUI (you need pidgin with GUI when using purple, gtk2). Iam in need to run it without a GUI for perl.

4. i have found many modules in perl for messengers without the (complete) filetransfer routines.

    Pidgin is the gui, Purple is the backend

      yes but purple is not work standalone (without gui pidgin) and finch (console edition from pidgin) is not work on win32.

        yes, purple will work without gui pidgin. It might require more effort on your part, but it will work
