TabSRMM covers all aspects of messaging: instant messaging (1:1 IM chats) and group chats (also known as MUC – multi-user chat, on IRC usually known as channels and on Jabber as rooms).
 
TabSRMM integrates all their functionality into a single plugin under a unified user interface. With TabSRMM, it is possible to mix normal- and group chats as tabs within the same window or split them into multiple windows.
 
TabSRMM also comes with a notification module, notification by using the system tray icon or popup (needs a popup plugin).

Detailed, but probably incomplete list of features:

* A switch bar at the left or right side – a widescreen friendly replacement for top or bottom tabs.
* Keyboard shortcuts for almost every important feature – many of them can be customized.
* Display of contact pictures (avatars) in the message window.
* Customizable message history format with custom templates and many font- and color setting for different kind of messages or events.
* Support for {{Plugin|IEView}} and {{Plugin|HistoryPP|History++}} to display the message history. IEView allows for HTML and CSS styled history display with almost endless ways to design the message display.
* Support for metacontacts with automatic subcontact detection.
* Notifications module to show popup windows on incoming events. Can be customized in many ways.
* Skinning for the message window UI and themes to import and export existing font- and color configurations with a few clicks.
* An unattended send mode for automatically sending messages later (when a contact comes online) or sending messages to multiple contacts. See here for more.
* Support for modern Aero features in the UI and – on Windows 7 only – for Aero Peek ("per tab" task bar thumbnails and live previews).

TabSRMM is the most advanced messaging plugin for Miranda.

TabSRMM covers all aspects of messaging: instant messaging (1:1 IM chats) and group chats (also known as MUC – multi-user chat, on IRC usually known as channels and on Jabber as rooms).

TabSRMM integrates all their functionality into a single plugin under a unified user interface. With TabSRMM, it is possible to mix normal- and group chats as tabs within the same window or split them into multiple windows.

TabSRMM also comes with a notification module, notification by using the system tray icon or popup (needs a popup plugin).


Features

Detailed, but probably incomplete list of features:

  • Tabbed user interface with multiple containers and different modes of tab assignment.
  • Rich user interface, including a menu bar, a customizable toolbar, an info panel, tabs on top or at the bottom and much more.
  • A switch bar at the left or right side – a widescreen friendly replacement for top or bottom tabs.
  • Keyboard shortcuts for almost every important feature – many of them can be customized.
  • Display of contact pictures (avatars) in the message window.
  • Customizable message history format with custom templates and many font- and color setting for different kind of messages or events.
  • Support for IEView and History++ to display the message history. IEView allows for HTML and CSS styled history display with almost endless ways to design the message display.
  • Support for metacontacts with automatic subcontact detection.
  • Notifications module to show popup windows on incoming events. Can be customized in many ways.
  • Skinning for the message window UI and themes to import and export existing font- and color configurations with a few clicks.
  • An unattended send mode for automatically sending messages later (when a contact comes online) or sending messages to multiple contacts. See here for more.
  • Support for modern Aero features in the UI and – on Windows 7 only – for Aero Peek ("per tab" task bar thumbnails and live previews).
  • Automatically split long messages which exceed the message length limit of the protocol.
  • Customizable UI – almost any UI element can be disabled or hidden for people who prefer a simple and clean UI.

Technical details

  • Written in C++ using the Win32 API – no additional toolkits.
  • Actively maintained and updated for any new Miranda version
  • Fairly complete documents available on this site. Though there are still large undocumented parts.
  • Open source, licensed under the GPL.
