Well this is an idea that came to me because the new command line in MP!L 4.5... maybe we should do a list of all the commands available, their functions and maybe examples... in this way many people will be capable to use this hidden features of MP!L !!!

Note: I offer myself to do it... I just need a list of all the commands availables...

If you press / and just wait a few seconds all the commands come up so theres ur commands

lol... no my friend... I'm talking about command line used to execute messenger with some special features... no the MP!L local commads...

Well if i didn't know them, i doubt a general user would even want to know what they are, all they want is the tabs function, possibly scrips along with the new skinning feature, really deep functions i dont think would matter.

trust me skinners and developers (that aren't beta testers)... and people that share their computers with other people that don't like MP!L... will love to know this "secrets"...

Are you talking about the likes of Encrypting, decrypting etc. of Plus! chatlogs.  What other commands are there anyway?  It would be nice to have a list for reference in the future (some scipt developers might see some opportunities for instance).

I thought it had /? or /help....

i for one am interested in what warmth is saying and think that it could be a valuable addition/contribution to Plus!

Hint 1: Search these forums, a lot of the command line parameters (if not all - except for the very new ones which you can read about in the changelogs) are already explained somewhere in one way or the other....

Hint 2: Read changelogs here or here.

Hint 3: Use a tool which can read the contents of a file. In other words, even with notepad you could find out most (if not all) available command line parameters. This isn't so convenient though, but a tool like PE Explorer (used by people for resource hacking as an alternative to the tool ResHacker) can list you all the strings within an exe. In that way, it is only a matter of searching for stuff beginning with "/" or "-" (in case of Messenger Plus! even " /" in some cases (thus with a space in front)).



note: of course an official list like the registry settings list would be nice. But many of those command line parameters are actually of no use for the end-user anyways, or even not for the advanced user (refering for example to the explaination of the workings of the old /WinStart parameter)




From what I remember and from what I can quickly find in my old notes:

MsgPlus.exe (Plus!3):
/ExtractSponsor
/SndPack:
/Log:
/AutoStart
/WinStart
/Remove

LogViewer.exe (Plus!4 and up):
/help
-help
/ViewLog=
/Encrypt=
/Dycrypt=
/KeySize=
/Dest=
/Pwd=
/ChangePwd=
/NewPwd=
/Overwrite
/Partial
/RootDir=
/UserID=
/Hint=
/AllowDuplicate

MPTools.exe (Plus!4 and up):
/PlusSkin=
/RestartMessenger
/ImportScript=
/ImportPrefs=
/ImportSoundPack=
/ImportSkin=
/UIB=
/Def=
/Style=
/Dest=
/Src=

MsgPlus Setup (Plus!3):
/SilentInstall
/SilentInstallNosponsor
/NoAdmin
/ExtractSponsor
/ppath:

MsgPlus Setup (Plus!4 and up):
/help
-help
/Destination=
/Silent
/AutoUpdate

Messenger (Plus!4.5):
/PlusEnabled=
/PlusSkin=


Notes:
* Some links might be invalidated by now or might point to the beta testing forums and can only be accessed by beta testers.
* Some parameters might have been removed or only available for specific versions
* Because I quickly compiled this list I can't garantuee that this list is complete.
* Some parameters should be handled with great care! Remember that almost all parameters are meant to be used internally by Plus! and not by the user, except for a few.

that's what I'm talking about cookie I knew all the existence of all that info but I wanna do a summary to help people to fast find all that info... but you already did it !!! thanks... I hope this thread get sticked and well shaped...
