it can't be cool because it is so easy to use that kids can learn it in couple of hours.

ircII is much better

The incredible power of SSH, screen and irssi lets me continue my IRC sessions even on my S60 phone.

That was my screenshot. I was sshed from the n900 into my 24x7 server that has a screen session with the irssi IRC client in it. The status bar along the bottom is a custom thing set up for screen that has little text widgets to tell me, things like whether I have new email and, when someone talks to me in IRC.

I think even if irssi were ported to the n900 I'd still connect to the same remote session like I do with all of my other computers.

how do you do the widgetting for email and IRC? I didn't get that working ever....
btw my statuslines all look something like this but colours are different on each server
Code:
hardstatus alwayslastline "%{ck}%?%-w%?[%n*%f %t]%?%+Lw%?%=| %{..W}[%l] %{..G}%2`@%H %{..Y} %D %d/%m/%Y %c"
Code:
$bash   | $load $user@$host  $DOW $date $time

Code:
$bash   | $load $user@$host  $DOW $date $time

Here's my hardstatus string:

Code:
hardstatus string '%{= w}%Y-%m-%d %c:%s%{= w}|%= |%{+b r}%101`%{-}|%{+b g}%103`%{-}|%{+b b}%105`%{-}|%{= y}%107`%{= w}'
The %101`, %102`, etc. correspond to the "backtick" parameter in the screenrc. You can basically plug in a script that executes and its output will be put in place of those operators. For instance, the mail script is referenced in screenrc like so:

Code:
backtick 105 60 60 /path/to/custom/fetchmail.pl
That fetchmail.pl is a short script I wrote that runs fetchmail -c, parses it, and outputs folders with new mail. It's short enough I'll paste it here:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl

open FETCHMAIL, "/usr/bin/fetchmail -t 10 -c 2>/dev/null |" or die "Can't run fetchmail: $!\n";

while(<FETCHMAIL>){
   if(/^(\d+) messages \((\d+) seen.*?folder (.*?)\)/){
      $m+=$1; $s+=$2; $f=$3;
      $f =~ s/INBOX\.//;  #my IMAP server adds INBOX in front of each folder
   }
   if($1 > $2){
      $fs{$f} = $1 - $2;
   }
}
close FETCHMAIL;
$t = $m - $s;

if($t > 0){
   foreach $folder (sort { $fs{$a}<=>$fs{$b} } keys %fs){
      push @folders, "$folder:$fs{$folder}";
   }
}
print join " ", @folders;

thanks, I am not into perl that much but this does download the folders local and looks up if the count of msgs changed to a higher number as it been before?

The -c argument to fetchmail tells it to just show you your folder status but it doesn't download anything. You, of course, need to have fetchmail already configured to connect to your remote IMAP server.

never used fetchmail, was just looking into man pages how does the irssi highlight light up your statusbar (thats even more interesting, would write plugins if I learn perl some time...)

You can probably run a local version of irssi on your N900 with Easy Debian. I'm not going to bother trying, however...
shouldnt be a problem to port irssi to maemo5 as there is a earlier port and also debian is available for arm...
