Dean,
What a terrific thing to be doing! This will make a qualitative difference to the experience of using Squeak, particularly for those of us who spend a high percentage of our waking hours in a Squeak image.
I got your code, got a registered ICQ number from Mirabalis, and already had an AIM identity, so I fired up an image, filed in your code, and executed the precipitating do-it.
However, it was not successful. I got the "Messaging" window, but when I hit the "Connect" button, I quickly fell into a debugger, "primitive failed", in Socket.primSocket:connectTo:port:.
Do I perhaps need some custom plug-in, or some custom vm, in order to use this stuff successfully? Or could it be that the debug-notifier is the "normal" way of responding to a request to connect to a user who is presently offline?
I'm eager to start using this, but for the moment am stuck...

Some of you here wanted my instant messaging stuff, so here it is! Let me know how you like it. Better yet, send me an instant message how you like it! ICQ and AIM messaging are both supported. ICQ contact list is supported, but the AIM buddy list is not yet supported. You'll need a registered ICQ number from Mirabilis and a registered Screen Name from AOL to correctly use my client.
