GoogleChat & Trillian.

Does anyone know how to make GoogleChat (or talk.google.com, or Gchat, or whatever the fuck it's called) work with TrillianPro? I would really like to have Google chat capabilities in Trillian so I can have one, & only one, IM window running.

Edit: Ha, I finally figured it out. I had downloaded an out-of-date plugin.

Nope. I two-client chat. :-/

I downloaded the trial version of TrillianPro, which allowed me to install the Jabber plugin. Then there was a Google webpage which purported to give directions on how to make Talk.Google work with Trillian. But I can't figure it out for the life of me.

I'm having a look at the moment at Trillian's settings but you may wish to try MIRANDA which is free though does not have the "bells and whistles" of Trillian Pro

or use Meebo...

Oh man, I just finished a marathon session of learning Trillian & NOW you want me to learn something else? If I have to think that hard, why don't I just do my work or something?

Just kidding, I'll look at it.
