Hi.
I'm from Denmark and my english isn't good.

I have made my own Messenger Plus! Live script and wants to make it to a .plsc file (So the users can import the script), but how do i make my script to a .plsc file?

- Simon

Make sure you have a scriptinfo.xml file then zip the contents of the folder(not the folder itself) and rename .zip to .plsc

Hi.
That doesn't work.

I can't find any programs to "plsc the script"

Hi.
I haven't got winzip, but winrar, can i use winrar?

In the folder der isn't any file called "scriptinfo.xml", actually there isn't any .xml file.
What shell the scriptinfo contain?

Yes you can use winrar, just make sure you move the radio button to zip file isntead of rar file.

Example ScriptInfo.xml

code:

---

<ScriptInfo>   
    <Information>
        <Name>Answering Machine Plus</Name>
        <Description>Autoreplies to user specified messages.</Description>
        <AboutUrl>http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=64534</AboutUrl>
    </Information>
</ScriptInfo>

That's because you have to create this file yourself. This is the xml interface page for the little popup when the script is imported. You have to put this in the .zip file with your .js and any other files before changing the file type

You can use Script Packager

Hi.
I can't get it work.
When i have maked the plsc file and try to open the fil it says that it isn't a valid Messenger Plus! Live file

Make sure the xml is unicode. If it still doesn't work post it up here and I'll check whats wrong.

SnuZZer,

ermmm.. please read the scripting documentation regarding script packs carefully.

Everything said in this thread is only a small part of what you must do and is majorly confusing if you're not that computer literate (not to mention certain things said in this thread are not totally correct).

Either do that or use a script pack tool like Demsey linked to.


A scriptpack includes:
* the JS files, these can be saved in Unicode (little endian) or ANSI.
* an mandatory scriptinfo.xml file. This file must be, in general, saved as Unicode (little endian) (Although you can save it as Ansi too, but in that case you need to define this in the XML header). Don't forget to include an xml header. The proper contents of the file can be found in the scripting documentation. The file is something you need to create manually.
* other files. for more on these, read the scripting documentation.

Everything must be saved under the root in the scriptpack, thus not in a subdirectory.

A scriptpack is actually a normal ZIP file, but with its extension renamed to plsc.

All this and in more detail can be read in the scripting documentation. Read it very very carefully.

@others: try to explain stuff 100% correctly. Very good that you try to help, but almost all posts in this thread so far are not much of a help at all and will in fact make it even more confusing since they don't mention the details and not all facts are given. sorry....

Majorly confusing. And what has FrontPage todo with all this?

You forget to mention that the file must be saved in either unicode or ansi depending on what its contents are (xml encoding).

You forget the important xml header.

That in general is true, but only when you don't have a xml header (which is actually good practice to include it) or if the header says it is UTF-16 encoded. If the header says it is UTF-8 encoded then it should be ansi.
