Script released, screenshots coming up!

Slight bug taken care of! First post updated accordingly. Screenshot added.

Very nice.  I was going to do this kind of thing for my Script in the comp.  But instead I was lazy and just played around with things and stuck them together and released.

Anyway a suggestion would be if when you list the files also add a number next to them so they can request a file number.

For exampled there is 3 files shared with really stupidly long names, you would just type "!getfile 3" instead of "!getfile stupidlylongnameoffilethatn0-onew0ulspell.logejs"

So the program would output

File ID                   FileName
1                           Movie.txt
2                           Jokes are cool.mov
3                           Hello Man.html

I hope that makes sence....

Well, that is the actual behaviour You get a file using the request tag followed by a space and the ID of the file you want.

Ahh, fair enough.  I take the above back....
(at work so just guessing the behaviour)

really looks nice.. would u mind if I used certain pieces of ur code for my own plugin ?
I'm trying to create a search plugin (kinda like your list command) but
since I just started programming 2 day's ago, I could use any help I can get.

thx in advance... and nice scripting !!!

Sure, but wait until the next week if possible, my code is a real mess actually (was written in a rush )

Hello!!! Good Work!!!
Nice script... Realy like it...

1) (Maybe Crazy) Suggestion:

How about adding a folder (specified by the user) and the description is automaticly the name of the file... so when a file is putted on the folder, the script auto-add on the list... So the user only Enables it...

1) Bugs:

1) De opition to Edit on the "Manage Files" window isn't enabled (can't click on it) and, can't edit the "files"... Sorry, didn't read this: "Edit: Used to edit a file from the files list (to be added very shortly)"
2) When a file is deleted, the "IDs ( the "#s") of the files didn't refresh too...
Example:
#1 File     
#2 File2
#3 File 3
Now, If #2 is removed, the list results in:
#1 File
#3 File 3
Now, If I add another file, the new list results in:
#1 File
#3 File 3
#4 File_added_later
So, the place #2 isn't replaced
Also, when a contact writes, "!files", the list will be the same as the list on the "Manage Files" Window (following the example, without a "#2")...
So I think, this last "bug" will be solved with the EDIT Buton too...

ok, I'll wait ...
and thx again

Well, since each ID is unique to a file you don't want them to "refresh" each time a change occured in your files list. Imagine for example that someone is used to get a specific file, he can just come in and request the file with the id right away, if that ID changes all the time, that may confuse your users.

Something that would be interesting though is to offer the user to refresh all the IDs (without doing it automatically).
