Here's a release of a small script I made to easily add contacts from a command, as requested in this thread. I am not planning to submit it to the real scripts database because it's really not much, and I don't want to spam up the database

How to Use
----------
In a conversation window, use the /addcontact command. You can add one contact, multiple contacts, or the current
contact(s) of the conversation window.

Add one contact:
/addcontact email@domain.com

Add multiple contacts:
/addcontact email@domain.com,email2@domain2.com

Add the current contact(s) of the Chat Window:
/addcontact
----------

Enjoy!

If it works well and does the job it is supposed to do, I think you should submit it Some users won't come on the boards to find scripts.

Oh thank you very much, because now it's a bit bored adding new contacts! Great stuff!

Congrats on your first script release!  And yeah, you should submit it to the official DB, it has a far larger audience and it's a good script.

awesome! that's really usefull!

(just to confirm - does it add all contacts in a multiple conversation?)

would be good to submit it in the official database for people who don't come to the forums here

As moderator of the script DB i'll say, pleasy do submit it (see http://www.msgpluslive.net/scripts/submit/ for instructions). Small scripts can also be very usefull. And since we're just starting almost every well done script is welcome now, once it starts to get hard to find things in the DB we'll see if we need to delete some less popular ones.

Done

Nice script, although I really don't understand the need for "Commands Class.js"... that seems very pointless to me.

Commands Class.js is a simpler way to add/remove/manage commands without tons and tons of lines of XML. The full documentation for it is not here yet, and I *think* thats a shortened version.

In this case its a bit pointless because its only one command, but I didn't want to remove my commands class. I like it.

The reason I said it's rather pointless is indeed just because this script only uses 1 command....

Including such a support script is good for those who know how to deal with such things. But it doesn't teach the newbie the proper way of programming such scripts. And such a small script as this would be perfect to teach people how to script.

As for "without tons and tons of lines of XML", that is seriously exaggerated. Even a script with a handfull fixed commands doesn't need many "XML lines". Not to mention, if the commands don't change you can even provide the commands in the scriptinfo.xml IIRC.
