## Historique du projet et usages

CenterIM 5 is a text-mode instant messaging client for Unix-like systems that uses libpurple as its communication backend.

### Historique du projet

The official repository describes CenterIM 5 as a terminal IM client for Linux, BSD, Solaris, and other Unices. Its repository preserves a traditional Unix command-line client shape, with a README, manpage, NEWS file, and source tree rather than a hosted documentation site.

### Historique d'adoption

CenterIM 5 is a niche package-manager item: Homebrew packages the centerim5 executable for users who still want a terminal multi-protocol IM client, while the GitHub repository shows a small public footprint.

### Modes d'utilisation

The documented command is centerim5. The official manpage documents options including ASCII UI drawing, alternate base directory selection, and starting accounts offline.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

CenterIM 5 is useful to package nerds as a preservation-style Unix terminal client: it keeps a libpurple-backed multi-protocol messaging workflow available outside graphical Pidgin-style front ends.

### Chronologie

- 2016: centerim5 manpage dated July 11, 2016.
- 2018: Public petrpavlu/centerim5 GitHub repository and release history visible on GitHub.

### Related projects
