O.P. [Request] Timezones script (or help with)
Hey guys, I'm new here with Messenger Plus scripting.

I'm aiming to get a script to essentially give the local time of a contact.
Not looking to do anything fancy; simply specifying the timezone (GMT) and comparing it against the current time is fine.
As for displaying, a toast pop-up should be more than sufficient.

But as I said, I'm new to scripting and have been reading through the scripting documentation.

This is how I'd like it to be done (very flexible, so yeah..):
- right-click on user and select an option such as "Local time" (flexible, even in a conversation: /local_time or something..)
- script checks the registry to determine if a timezone has been set for the user. If it has been set, it calculates their local time and displays a toast pop-up (or in a convo, a message with the time maybe?). If not, you use a window to enter in their GMT offset.

Simple process, slightly more difficult to code (for me anyway; I am a newbie to scripting with Messenger Plus!).

If you could help out with this, or even go so far as to code it yourself, I would be eternally grateful. ;)

Thanks. :)
