The Yahoo Messenger scripts don't offer much functionality with the current
Yahoo Messenger client.  I could barely get around in it and couldn't keep
up with the conversation; it was difficult to move about in the window and
according to the keyboard file of the scripts, several of the keys didn't
work.  YM is probably OK for voice use, but otherwise there are better
alternatives.
