Silky is an easy-to-use graphical SILC client. Key features follow: * Easy to use. The user experience is similar as in some popular IRC * clients. * Works in Windows, Linux, OS X, NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and possibly in some other systems. * Uses Gtk+ 2. Doesn't require full Gnome2 to be installed. * Uses the SILC Toolkit. * Written in C. * Supports binary MIME-messages. * Open source, GPL licence. * Translated already to 7 languages, including Italian, Finnish, German and Russian. The aim of this project is to create a simple and easy to use graphical, os-independent SILC client. Silky contains, or will eventually contain, all necessary features of a SILC client. The user interface will be kept as simple and clean as possible.
