    About

    KMess is a Linux chat client alternative to Live/MSN Messenger. It allows Linux users to chat with friends who use MSN Messenger or Live Messenger in Windows or Mac OS. The strength of KMess is its integration with the KDE Plasma workspaces, its focus on Messenger specific features and an easy-to-use interface.
