Do you wish your Campfire chats were contained in a dedicated application? Would you like to see the number of unread messages on the Dock icon? Would you like the Dock icon to bounce when new messages appear? Pyro does all that.

Do you wish your Campfire chats were contained in a dedicated application? Would you like to see the number of unread messages on the Dock icon? Would you like the Dock icon to bounce when new messages appear?

Pyro does all that. What’s more, Pyro keeps a connection open to all the rooms you are in, making switching between rooms instantaneus. Finally, why clutter your screen with a browser’s tab bar full of Campfire rooms when Campfire itself has a perfectly good tab bar of its own?

What's New:
If Growl is installed, Pyro will use it for notifications instead of bouncing the Dock icon.
The update checks have been reworked to use the Sparkle framework.
Various bug fixes.
Thanks for all the feedback — keep it coming!

Requirements:
Campfire account.
