The script has no way of determining the nickname of a contact as it is not a property assigned by Messenger or Plus!
Plus! has no way of determining the nicknames of your contacts so a manually defined list is the easiest option. I've noticed some people using it without setting nicknames, meaning the script shows the start of their email address instead. However, I advise against doing this as it kin of advertises your contacts email to people that may use it for immoral purposes.
EDIT: I am going to build in an option to the next version to backup selected information as several times the registry information has been deleted and I have had to assign nicknames again from scratch which is highly annoying. (This isn't really a bug in the script, but I have to test it a lot and new versions aren't always "compatible" with older versions as the may use extra/renamed files as well as using different registry keys. For example, I changed the registry address from the users email address to their user ID, meaning all settings were lost unless transfered using RegEdit)
SCRIPT UPDATE: Currently adding languages, having slight error loading preferences window (Child windows working fine now
). Next version CAN'T be released until the language problem has been fixed as the incomplete code will still activate causing errors. Version 3.7.71 will be released shortly and uploaded to the script database as soon as possible.
WEBSITE UPDATE: I finally uploaded a website for PSM+! You can visit it at
http://psm-plus.co.nr... It's as yet "incomplete" but I want to spread the news early, so that the word can be spread
