no... :p


Didn't have time before.... But it won't be made because Patchou doesn't have nearly enough time to code it for one reason... then the only other reason i can think off the top of my head is that there isn't nearly enough demand for it to be worth all the hastle of coding it.

Patchou won't create a messenger plus! for mac, neither for other operating systems than Windows

Will there be a Mac/Linux version of Messenger Plus! ?

No, there will never be a Macintosh version or a Linux version of Messenger Plus! Live due to several reasons, including the fact that I have absolutely no time to put in such kind of project.

You're asking for much... There are some IMs for Mac.

I think it was said that Mac OS doesn't have the required APIs to support a plugin like Plus!

Patchou is not from microsoft... although he was invited to redmond and was invited to work there but he refused...

He won't program for mac, becuase:

Mac is a very different platform from windows, and a lot of what messenger plus does is very windows-specific... it would be quite hard to simply port, it would need to be a whole new program -- and that's time consuming.

right now??
that means that eventually (mabe a ouples of years =P) there would be one??

the really thing that annoys in messenger:mac is the nicknames of all my friends with numbersand #, just a colour nick plugin (and maybe the sounds too) would be really appreciated by the mac community

and if u want yo could add more features [Image: tongue.gif].. just kidding


personally what i would appreacciate and be thankful of would be a colornick and a sound plugin
the others IMs are a little too crappy

thx
