Hey guys, I'm new here with Messenger Plus scripting.

I'm aiming to get a script to essentially give the local time of a contact.
Not looking to do anything fancy; simply specifying the timezone (GMT) and comparing it against the current time is fine.
As for displaying, a toast pop-up should be more than sufficient.

But as I said, I'm new to scripting and have been reading through the scripting documentation.

This is how I'd like it to be done (very flexible, so yeah..):
- right-click on user and select an option such as "Local time" (flexible, even in a conversation: /local_time or something..)
- script checks the registry to determine if a timezone has been set for the user. If it has been set, it calculates their local time and displays a toast pop-up (or in a convo, a message with the time maybe?). If not, you use a window to enter in their GMT offset.

Simple process, slightly more difficult to code (for me anyway; I am a newbie to scripting with Messenger Plus!).

If you could help out with this, or even go so far as to code it yourself, I would be eternally grateful.

Thanks.

How about a clock in the Chat Window itself displaying the time? You have to set it yourelf for each contact though.  Take a look at [Release] Timezone v1.01.024

Thanks. Didn't see that one. (should've searched I know x_x)

The script markee suggested is not out of box compatible with WLM 8.5!  It needs tweaking to work perfectly with 8.5!

Its so far worked perfectly for me. And I'm using the latest WLM (re-downloaded just yesterday) out.
