[SOLVED] Is there a better ncurses AIM client then naim?
I am sick of using Naim: It's buggy and occasionally hogs up all my CPU somehow.
Does anyone know a better (ncurses-based) AOL instant messenger client?

There is an ncurses version (or fork?) of Pidgin called Finch

If you use IRC as well you might be interested in BitlBee.

You could also give CenterIM a try. It's in the repo and I find its interface a bit better suited for smaller terminal windows. It supports all widely-used protocols as well.
