Bitlbee Gtalk Howto
There's a lot of bad information out on the Internet about how to add a google talk account. It's actually very simple!
15:28 <@you> acc add jabber you@gmail.com 15:28 <@root> Account successfully added with tag gtalk 15:28 <@root> You can now use the /OPER command to enter the password 15:28 <@root> Alternatively, enable OAuth if the account supports it: account gtalk set oauth on 15:29 <@you> acc gtalk set oauth true 15:29 <@root> oauth = `true' 15:29 <@you> acc gtalk on 15:29 <@root> gtalk - Logging in: Starting OAuth authentication
A private message will pop up:
15:29 <jabber_oauth> Open this URL in your browser to authenticate: https://... 15:29 <jabber_oauth> Respond to this message with the returned authorization token.
The URL will open a page saying "BitlBee is requesting permission to:". Click "Allow access" and paste the OAuth code back into the private window. Your account will then come online, and your contacts will appear.
You're done!
If you have a Google+ account, your G+ contacts will also appear with odd names. To fix this, acc gtalk set nick_format %full_name or similar: see help nick_format for details.
