Simple Chat

In my boredom I wrote a simple network chat daemon and program. Basically, a server accepts connections and "hosts" chat rooms that users can use to chat in. Users chat with other users through a client program called Simple Chat. So far there aren't any cool features but I think I will write a PHP client to use the chatting facilities through a web application.

The simple chat client was my first GTK2 application and I think GTK sucks! The library is not consistent in some areas and makes you work hard to achieve mundane things.
