Hi,

I'm introducing to you: PlusRemote.
A script which mission is to provide the basic functions of Windows Live Messenger for anyone who is logged in.
With it you can 'link' a chatwindow to yours, so that everything is said is copied to the window it's linked to. You can set the name, the Personal Message, the display picture from file or from user, send files, send messages, retrieve all open windows, retrieve linked windows, retrieve all contacts, retrieve contacts with certain statusses, open windows, terminate windows, get information on contacts, get a contacts display picture, and block and unblock contacts.

It works with 1 central password, which can be changed with a command, by both the server (you, if you're running PlusRemote), and the user (a contact who is logged in).
For safety it's got a backdoor built in, the magic word. It will provide the ability for you to regain control at any time and cannot be changed with a command for safety reasons.
When the password is changed, everyone will be logged off, and if you want people to be able to log in again you need to inform the contacts yourself.

UPDATE v2.0a:
* Completely rewritten code.
* Much faster.
* Command recognition through Regular Expressions (much more advanced).
* Login by name (Custom name, perhaps).
* Completely revised !contact command.

If there are any suggestions, I'll be the first to hear, right?

Currently it has the (working) features:

Will update commandlist soon...

I still need an interface, for that I need someone else to write... It could be you, who's name will be in the about...

I have not tested it yet, but seems cool!

Maybe adding a

!listcommands

Which will list all the commands like you explained in a message to me (the user controlling the account from a friends)

it has a !help command already, forgot to add, now added

Oh, great

Will test next time I go to a friends

I'm not sure if I'm doing this right..

I type !login then my password, but it says I have no contacts?

First of all, you can't login if you are on the server that runs PlusRemote.
Second, to find out who typed it it searches through all contacts in your list and checks if they have the same name as the Origin (who typed it), so Chat-Only-Names don't work.
Third, the one running PlusRemote may not have custom names, to make sure a contact doesn't have a custom name, select the contact, press F2, backspace and enter.

Hopefully this helps you out

Hmm interesting script, a few things could be changed bus so far so good . It would be a good idea maby to list parcipitants in a linked conversayion in the screename of the server, helps to know who is in the conversation. I do not know how this could be implimented though...

Well, remember that you can't have conversationspecific nicknames.
If all participants are listed in the nickname, everybody would be able to see it.

Well maby just have it in the message or somthing like that... Just some way to see who is in the conversation.

if you say !list convos, you get all conversations, with participants...

UPDATE: "!list convos" is now "!list window all", and with "!list window linked" you get all linked windows, with participants.
