Kopete – the Software

For users who find themselves addicted to AIM, Kopete can be an interesting option especially when working on a different environment such as Linux. With a name that traces itself to the Chilean word – Copete, which refers to an alcoholic drink, Kopete proves itself a worthy alternative as a multi-protocol, free software instant messaging client. It was specifically designed to integrate with the KDE desktop environment although it can run in numerous environments.

Kopete supports all commonly used Instant Messaging protocols while providing templates for developers from which to base their new plug-ins. It also features tools to enhance instant messaging like message encryption, archiving and many others.
