Nimc was a program that I wrote to experiment with TCP/IP programming in python. It provides a client and a server, so it's not compatible with any other IM protocols out (AIM, jabber, msn). This was really just a learning experience for me that I would like to share and keep for myself to look back at ten years from now.
If (for some odd reason) you have code to improve nimc, send a patch to me.
This project's SourceForge.net Subversion repository can be checked out through SVN with the following instruction set:
svn co https://nimc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/nimc nimc
