there is a sample configuration for using powwow as a telnet-based
client application for psyc in the config directory. unfortunately
the default powwow configuration comes with a very stupid setting
for command continuation, the ';' -- which makes it very hard to
wink in a conversation, unless you #quote on which means all of
your #alias'es will no longer work. the solution is to apply this
little patch before you compile or emerge powwow. maybe one day
someone will make it a setting, then this patch will become useless
but in the year 2005 this is still not the case.	-lynX
