RE: PSM change by script still not working properly
I just realized MP!L is "typing" the message in the status field? It opens WLM main window and then literally types stuff in, but if something else is opened and focused, like browser window or text editor, it types in that window instead. How f.ed up is that?

We'd better off doing some AutoIt script that would work better then this...

Something changed in the previous version where they couldn't directly set the PSM so instead their solution was to force open the contact list and set the PSM in the window.

Isn't that what V@no is describing?

Yes I am simply explaining that it was because of an internal change in the previous version that forced them to go that route.

Yeah, but in terms of programming, it's frowned upon. I suspected it was something like this when it was fixed and why foaly was having trouble with skins (Element is not in the same place)

I could possible live with wlm popping up and maybe even if it steals focus, but not when I type something in text editor, wlm popping up and I see text showed up in text editor that I haven't typed - that's not acceptable.

P.S.
Just curious, what previous version you are referring to? WLM or MP!L?
