Our amazingly responsive Ayttm developer, Siddhesh Poyarekar, has

If my experience is any indication, you may have what you need
very soon.
GeoW | Thanks for the update.

Béèm,
Siddhesh reports that yahoo file transfer now works and he will look
at MSN next.
Note: he says send and receive work with Kopete, but Ayttm cannot
receive files sent by Pidgin because Pidgin has a bug in sending.

Yo Béèm,
Have you downloaded the latest source and set it up?
Wolf Pup has just updated his .pet so you could download that.

Geow | I installed the _74 and saw that a couple of minutes later a _75 is uploaded now.
Speedy Gonzales at work?
Will try the _75

Béèm,
Version 0.5.0-75 is the one with the file transfer fix.
Yes, Sid fixes things very quickly and Wolf Pup makes them downloadable almost as soon as they are available.
Good Luck! Please let us know your results.

So installed the _075
My yahoo correspondent came online.
I can sent him a file. He gets the windows to accept the file.
(I think he was in pidgin)
And the file is received correctly.
Then I asked him to sent me a file.
He can see he has the request for accepting the file.
But I don't get a window to accept the file.
So file xfer to me don't work.

Sorry GeoW
Forgot about that restriction.
Will ask my correspondent to use another IM program.
Don't know which other one has.

Could have thought about that before
Made a second userid in yahoo, so I can test with myself, having two PC's.
So the linux machines runs the _75, The XP PC Pidgin and Miranda.
Both have the same behavior, I can sent to the XP PC, but can't sent to the Linux PC.
And now the cherry on the cake.
In XP I use qemu for testing of linux distros.
So I have a Dingo 407 and installed the _75
I can sent from the virtual Dingo 407 perfectly.
When I sent from the linux PC to the virtual Dingo 407, I get the permission for receiving panel, then the selection panel for the save location, but there I get a freeze.
Maybe this isn't linked to the ayttm _75 sw.
So conclusion, Pidgin isn't the only one where sent doesnt work.

Yo Béèm,
I passed your comments to Sid and he has replied already:
Well it's a little more complicated than that actually. Pidgin is
capable of two methods of file sending -- version 15 compatible (the
latest protocol) as well as the old one. The latest protocol support
works fine but the old one is broken. The fix is actually just a byte
long I had posted the bug report and fix on Pidgin as soon as I had
done our commit.
We're still on the old protocol in Ayttm, so we're not able to receive
with Pidgin. Using the new protocol only for file transfer also
doesn't seem to work. Unfortunately, this also means that with
messengers that use the new protocol by default, we won't be able to
exchange files.
Siddhesh
I am afraid I must drop out - this is all beyond me - so I can only
carry messages. I will do that until it gets me shot.

Well it's pretty clear.
There are two protocols for file xfer. An old one an a new one.
Ayttm uses the old one and can't therefor communicate with IM programs using the new one.
Per default Pidgin uses the new one.
I don't know, but it might that Miranda uses the new one also.
So in that case Miranda fails to communicate with ayttm as well;
And by bad luck, the old one of Pidgin is broken.
Sid has advised the Pidgin people.
As I saw a new version of Pidgin is available, I'll download and try in case the bug in the old protocol is repaired.
Remains the question, how about Pidgin in Puppy.
Altho Ayttm is lighter, it seems to be behind at the file xfer protocol, so I wonder if it is finally a good choice to have Ayttm.
Maye Sid will add the new protocol as well.
So wait and see then.
Thanks for your intervention.

Béèm,
You are welcome.
I will pass your latest comments to Sid as soon as I finish writing this.
I actually signed up on Yahoo in hopes that I could help. I think I was
successful, but I cannot get a list of chatrooms. So, Ayttm will sign me
on to Yahoo, but I have no idea where to go from there.
