Chax 2.2 adds message history, camera snapshots, and multi-touch to the iChat IM application.

It’s been a long time in coming, but Chax 2.2 is finally available. There are two new features since the beta: an option to confirm before closing active AV chats, and a way to quickly send a snapshot from a iSight or other connected camera as an inline image or file transfer (Send Camera Snapshot… in the Buddies menu).

Changes from Chax 2.1.2:
(New) Message history shows messages from the previous conversation in new chat windows
(New) Send Camera Snapshot in the Buddies menu allows you to instantly send a picture from your camera as an inline image
(New) Added option to confirm before ending AV chats
(New) Added multitouch swipe gesture to switch tabs in message window
(New) Hidden default SaveWindowFrames saves per-contact window positions
(New) Hidden default ShowSenderAccount shows the active account in each conversation
(Bug) Fixed parsing logs with some languages
(Bug) New chat windows no longer steal focus when using auto-accept
(Bug) Fixed unlocalized UI elements appearing in some languages
