This may work with the unstable version of debtags, but that hasn't reached me yet, so I'd have to use grep on the datafile. Remember that some chat clients (eg kopete) do IM *and* IRC. Not that I've ever really understood why IRC doesn't count as IM. > What do you think? Notice that we also have separate tags for, let's see, protocol::aol-messenger protocol::icq protocol::jabber protocol::msn-messenger protocol::yahoo-messenger (what no ::gadu-gadu?) To me this has always seemed a bit poorly-organised. Couldn't we have a general protocol::im tag, with sub-tags for ::im:aol, ::im:icq etc? -- JBR Ankh kak!
