Patchou, what about a command that changes the custom name of a contact from the conversation window?

For example:

/customname <Name>

yeah, thats a pretty good idea. maybe more parameters in case you're in a multiple convo, like /custom <email of contact> <new name> or something.

Its a good idea, it could be done in a plugin though, rather than Patchou doing it, if Patchou wants to add it, then it'll be great...

Yeah, or a small windows appears:



please don't add me for no reason. if you want to add me, send me a private message.

ooo... even better idea! i suppose it would be better to have a plugin for this.

Nah, I'd just disable it for multiple convos... No need to do that in multiple convos, it's easier in that case to open the preferences panel and change it there

as many of my contacts know i rename them by their real name (or forum name)

eg

Bob smith
[Cky] - bob
[Msgplus] - Bob

so i would love to just type

/customname Bob Smith



Great Idea

Great , I'm glad you all like the idea. Now it's up to Patchou to decide if he'll make this command .
