Hello!

I've installed licq jabber plugin. But found it's not possible to add
several jabber accounts =(
Is it a "feature" or I should do some actions to add more than one
jabber accounts?

Hi,
Licq can currently only handle one account per protocol. It would be
great to support multiple accounts, but it would require a lot of
changes so I'm afraid it won't happen any time soon.

It's a pity =( Pidgin can handle more than one jabber account, but it's
not Licq =)))

Not a perfect solution, but if you don't mind having multiple Licq
instances running, you could run one per account. Just set a different
directory with -b (for example "licq -b ~/.licq2") and configure a
different account for each instance.

Ok, I see.
If there's some wishlist for Licq users, I'd like to add "multiple
jabber accounts" to it =)
Thanx for you solution.
