Yeah, I forgot to say, though it's stated in the README:
im-ja is (0.1 means something right?) alpha software, if it embarrasses you
in front of your friends, don't blame me. Send me the patch ;)

shift-[left|right]arrow. I figured these are the most commonly used ones
insted of ctrl-f and such.
Also I have plans for a gtk gui interface that can be used to configure the
thing properly, saving settings in an rc file such as key bindings , server
port,  status widget location, etc. Any takers ?  ;)
