Here is a litle "Preview" of what I've got until now... ... it works great...
Ther is lots of bugs, that needs to be fixed and lots of improvements, so I don't wanna hear about bugs and stuff.. I want to hear from you guys what features you would like, ideas, and other comments, bug save bugs adn glitches for now... I know all about them!!!... If you can't run then your out of luck... this is only a quick tease, so you just have to wait...
This is not a plugin, bu a stand-alone exe file, it will be as a plugin later... so just hold on...

You open up as many msn's as you want with polygamy patchs or stuff plug or whatever... and when they have been open (they don't need to loged in) just run the exe file and you are ready to go... .. It have the menu with... and it works.. the login in screen and top menu works (stated before that it wouldn't but it DOES)...
Tabbing new instances of MSN is not yet supported, will be later...
Resizing of the Tabbed MSN doesn't resize the contact list.. this will hopefully be added later...
If you close (with the close in the right corner, the program wille xit, and everything will be back to normal)... there is no hiding to tray yet...
there is some bugs occuring if you use the msn tray icon to show the msn window again, and also if you close the contact list by using the menu or clicking on the small arrows and then use the close button.. this will be fixed later.. as stated before this is only a quick tease to show you what I've done until now...

You are welcome yo give some nice ideas, but please don't put general(obvouis ideas) such as "Minimize to tray", "Don't close program on close button" etc. those are obvious things that will be made... ...
And for good sake, don't post bugs or if you are having trouvbles running it!!!!!.. I don't wanna listen to that!!!!... then you will just have to wait...

Ok, enough with the babling here is the file!
Enjoy... ...

im confused on what it actually does, can you post some screenshots?

I'm pretty sure that its a program where you have 2 instances of msn running at once, and they're tabbed ... sounds great to me .

Here is a screenshot of the shit in action!! ..

Here's an image I made, of the idea I had that I told you about.



What do you think?

P.s. If you need any graphics work in any of your plugins then I'd be glad to help CD.

It's very good It saves time and space. Buggy!

I'd use it. I don't use many instances of MSNM because of this very reason, it's a mess to be changing windows and stuff.

Pretty cool but I don't have much use for it.

SWEET, thats what i was talking about and i got told it couldnt work i think . KOOL!!!!!! *DOWNLOADS*

it crashes msn every time i move the window at all but its gonna be good when its all fixed up

Thanks for the response everybody... ...
Rigth now i'm just working on putting it into a plugin, hopefully remove most bugs, atm i'mhaving some problems with resizing, that if you resize the tabbed thingy it should aslo resize the contact list, this will hopefully get fixed... and also i'm working on a system that will add each opened msn to the tab, without the user of a time, and maybe this way it wold even be possible to untab 1 instance or more... ...

Jag... looks nice, but this way i wouln't be able to get the menu with... .. that wouldn't be so good... but something like that is ok... ...

BTW: Have anybody tried it wht MSN 6.xx?.. It shouldn't be compatible, but I just wanted to check...if it isn't then I will just release another one that should be both 6.xx and 7.xx compatible... and see if that works... Since I can't check it on msn 6.xx myself...

I tried it with 6 and it says it can't find any instances of msn

MSN 6 and 7 use different class names if thats how you're detecting MSN instances

Ok..  here is the updated version that should be MSN 6.xx compatible.. please try it out for me...

Hmmm...

Nice use of many menu apis, set parent api, window apis and subclassing apis?

Anyway, if you want, I can help you, since I was developing something similar ... but it was for conversations

See: Looking for a 'container' or tabbed conversation plugin

Just PM me if you need any help or you need my msn address. I removed my msn address because there were some random people adding me...

Yeah I remember your container thingy, I was ibn the thread to.. .. I was really looking ofrward to some more of that.. but now I might do it in this plugin when I get it running alright.. then i'll do Tabbed MSN, Tabbed Conversation and a sort of cantainer like trillian... .. I will implement all these things into 1 plugin.. ... Yeah ok, we can talk, but I don't know if I need much help on this maybe, but maybe thou.. I'll just pm you my MSN add... ..

By the way, the 4 people that did download the new version? Does it work with msn 6 or not? please tell me as soon as possible...

How about giving the tabs the first part of the email address instead of numbers?

not working in msn 6.2

try "MSNMSBLClass"

edit: the menu's work though

edit2: could also be "pluginhostclass"

wow that is sooo cool, it works great

I used the new one


edit: this asm code lets me use msn 6.2 or 7.0

code:

---

Classnme62            db 'MSNMSBLClass',0
Classnme70            db 'MSBLWindowClass',0

---

code:

---

    invoke    FindWindow,offset Classnme62,0
    cmp    eax,0
    jnz    found
    invoke    FindWindow,offset Classnme70,0
    cmp    eax,0
    jnz    found
    jmp    no_run

* crank sits back and waits...
sounds like another amazing plugin is in the making...

[offtopic]
I still want to make you an installer if you need one though i guess you can do it yourself...
[/offtopic]

(CyBeRDuDe), any chance you can list some of the main APIs you use to do this? I wanna look them up

Use the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System. It allows you to do everything you explained using its built-in scripting language.

* crank has NSIS and Inno Setup
i can't do shit with NSIS, i don't like it... inno's easier and it's dutch
btw you can do most of those things using inno 2

Well I already use NSIS for my Shortcut Plugin, but I don't think that these to options can be scripted in NSIS?
- Shutting Down MSN Messenger (Normally, and Taskkill if normal shutdown fails, altso support for closing Tabbed Conversation when closing normally to prevent loss of log if Taskkill needs to be executed)
- Starting MSN Messenger

Can theý? IS it possible to add your own code like this? AFAIK no!.. You are still limited to what NSIS is capable of.. right?...

---

I am kinda disappointed....


I requested this months ago and people said that it would take to much effort and stuff....

NSIS can do both of those things because it can call Windows API functions.

Even if it couldn't use the Windows API, it's not limited at all. You can write your own DLL and it will include the code of the procedure you choose in the installer, and you can call it at run-time, allowing you to do anything.

hey, can someone post a screenshot of what it finally looks like beacuse this thread has some concepts and its bloody confusing.

lol cheers.

Here is what it looks like for me. It does'nt need installation but you have to resize your contact list to make it fit in but in furture it will be great:

Thanks! i think i'll wait for a future release

like that ?

About the installer:
Hmm.. You are welcome to make me a decent installer.. But it needs to fullfill some criterias..
- I need to be able to add my own files to it
- Extrating files
- Registrying files
- Add other various registry values
- Shutting Down MSN Messenger (Normally, and Taskkill if normal shutdown fails, altso support for closing Tabbed Conversation when closing normally to prevent loss of log if Taskkill needs to be executed)
- Starting MSN Messenger
- Uninstaller
- GUI, Interface, Pictures, texts, etc...
- A Homemade installer would be best, not some NSIS or Inno because they cannot do these tasks

If you can fullfill all these criteria then I would be more than happy to use a installer you make for me (and of course give you all the Credit you want).. .. I can do all this my self, I just don't have time on my hands..
