I read that post earlier and I just reread it now and is it just me or is there no mentoin of the API in Patchou's post?

Just the custom name changes and stuff... afaik O.o...

For now, nothign has ben changed in the API. Feel free to create a special thread to post your suggesations about what you'd like tosee in the API. However, I can already give you two answers:

The SetName() function will not mimick /nick2 as this command is not evensupposed to be there . Note that you can always return /nick2 as output of a command, it will work fine.

I've asked myself manytimes if I should allow plugin develoeprs to have complete access to messages sent and received and I still don't think it's a good idea, for security reasons.

Pretty please?

what exactly is /nick2?

/nick2 is the dark brother of /nick. It was born to create confusions and chaos by changing names without adding a Reset Format tag at the end, thus, allowing "says:" to be colored or hidden.

I'm letting him live but there's no way I'll acknowledge his presence by giving him access to the API.

cant you just implement it yourself?

plus has constants that have the colors in, use his SetName() to just set a predefined nick with the color constant on the end.

good idea, but i mean, maybe you should add restrictions in later versions if you can be bothered. it's not like it cant be done (after much much work). if people want it bad enough they'll work on it.


By the way Patchou, i have to ask something.

If i created a WndProc hook on MSN Messenger, then use the CallWindowProc with the address given when i set the hook, would this ByPass Plus's Hook. because i was mucking around with it abit so i could parse text recieved. but it seemed like Plus's Hook was being bypassed.

if this is the case, can i just Enumerate all the windows, search for Plus's handle and call your Window Procedure?.

thanks in advance.

Dosnt really work that well when you have eg white writing to hide it on your screen, but a black background visa versa
