[Script] Answer Phone by rob_botch on 06-29-2006 at 10:29 AM

This simple script checks all of the messages that you receive when you are not online and not appearing offline. It displays them all in one window so all messages can be easily viewed (for example, one useful suggestion was whilst playing a full-screen game on one monitor, you can monitor all messages on another). The answer phone can be turned on and off by clicking the toast that appears either when you set your status to anything other than online of appearing offline, or by typing "!answer" (all lower case) in a chat window. The answer phone only acts when the user is not online and not appearing offline.

Hope you like it,

Ummm.... its good but maybe you should close message window as soon as a message is recieved so that there rnt two windows :).

Edit : also if clicking message could open the chat window with the contact itll be great.

Thank you!

I did think about that, but then I decided that it was better how it is, so it is quicker and easier to reply to messages. Also, things like sounds and winks that won't play in the AnswerPhone can be played in the messenger window.

Thank you once again,

Well, I did try to integrate an "Open Chat" button, but I had difficulty in obtaining the email address of the person sending the message. It would not be reliable enough to look through the entire contact list to find a contact with the same nickname.

Thank you for your feedback,
