[ Suggestion ] Add Contact by Ellimist on 04-30-2005 at 09:27 AM

Hey, I think a great feature to add would be an "Add Contact" command from the chat window (/add contact or summat).

I like the idea and when your in a convo with loads of people and you want their e-mail address you can add them really quickly with no fuss :P


RE: [ Suggestion ] Add Contact by Stigmata on 04-30-2005 at 09:35 AM

in the conversation window.

goto actions, add contact..

if in a large convo, it will give a list of all the people, so you may decide.

or it just adds the contact in the convo.

He means to add them to their contact list. And yes, I agree a command that adds contacts to your contact list is a good idea!

A good idea yes, but if you were in a multi convo, how would you specify who you wish to add?

Sorry, should have read that more carefully, I thought you were showing him how to add to the convo.
However I wouldn't mind seeing a command like
/add address@here.com
It would be a nice small feature to add, it could be done very easily with a plugin, however I would prefer it to be put directly into Plus since it's just a very small feature of convenience.

I wouldn't mind a feature like /add, which in group convos instead of having to type in an address it opens up the window Stigmata is reffering to :)

Although I don't see myself going to use this. I'm a bit conservative, always clicking the button in my contact list ;)
I do think a command like this belongs in Messenger Plus!


RE: [ Suggestion ] Add Contact by Stigmata on 04-30-2005 at 06:00 PM

code:
Public Function ParseCommand(ByVal sCommand As String, ByVal sCommandArg As String, ByVal oConversationWnd As Object, ByRef sResult As String) As Boolean


  If (StrComp(LCase(sCommand), "/xadd", vbTextCompare) = 0) Then
 
Dim IMHwnd As Long
IMHwnd = FindWindow("IMWindowClass", vbNullString)
Call SendMessage(IMHwnd, WM_COMMAND, 0, 40263)
MPPluginConst.DisplayToast "Choose A Contact To Add", "Add Contact Plugin", "", True
  sResult = ""
        ParseCommand = True
        Exit Function
       
    End If
   
    'Give other plugins a chance to parse this command
    ParseCommand = False
End Function


;)

Well, that's nice, but i'd prefer it added to Msgplus :| But, as i said before, it's just a suggestion ;)
