In keeping with this belief, we have a version for each of the three major OS’s. In fact, you are able to use Psi in your choice of eight different languages, with more on the way!Ĭross-platform compatibility is important to the Psi development team we believe that you should be able to use whichever operating system you wish. Unicode allows Psi to send and receive messages in other languages, even ones that aren’t based upon the English letterset. We’d rather it blend with your desktop like any other application. For this reason, Psi doesn’t use ‘skins’. It uses a graphical toolkit called Qt, which takes on the appearance of whichever operating system you run it on. Unlike other IM clients, Psi is small, fast and responsive. It’s even possible to use Internet Relay Chat!
You can keep in contact with your friends, regardless of whether they use AIM, ICQ, MSNM or YahooM. Perhaps you have been considering Jabber, but don’t want to abandon your friends? Jabber technologies are highly extensible, so Psi is able to interoperate with other, proprietory messaging systems such as AOL’s ICQ and Microsoft’s Messenger. We always want to hear what the users of Psi would like, and if a feature that the dev team wishes to implement does not have an accepted standard, or would diverge from an existing one, we can work together to see the standards changed to accomodate everyone. The dev team and community are power-users who look to Psi to keep up with the times. This does not mean that Psi will never have “cool new features”. Doing so ensures that Psi will be compatible, stable, and predictable, both from an end-user and developer standpoint.
This means that in most cases, Psi will not implement a feature unless there is an accepted standard for it in the Jabber community. The goal of the Psi project is to create a powerful, yet easy-to-use Jabber/XMPP client that tries to strictly adhere to the XMPP drafts and Jabber JEPs. Built upon an open protocol named Jabber, Psi is a fast and lightweight messaging client that utilises the best in open source technologies. Psi is the premiere Instant Messaging application designed for Microsoft Windows, Apple Mac OS X and GNU/Linux.
