Pidgin - Perl extension for the Pidgin instant messenger.

SYNOPSIS

    use Pidgin;

ABSTRACT

    This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins in
    Pidgin, with access to the Pidgin Gtk interface functions.

DESCRIPTION

This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins in Pidgin, with access to the Pidgin Gtk interface functions. With this, developers can write perl scripts that can be loaded in Pidgin as plugins. The script can interact with IMs, chats, accounts, the buddy list, pidgin signals, and more.

The API for the perl interface is very similar to that of the Pidgin C API, which can be viewed at http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/ or in the header files in the Pidgin source tree.
