Gadu-Gadu client for UNIX systems. Gadu-Gadu is an instant
messaging program, very popular in Poland.

- sending and receiving files
- voice conversations
- launching shell commands on certain events
- reading input from pipe
- Python scripting support
- speech synthesis (using an external program)

interface. If you want to use the GTK+ graphical interface, install the
ekg-gtk package as well.
