About the /all I'll be making that sometime.. have put it on my to-do list... but I can't promise anything yet... I also wanted this feature some time ago.. But didn't really want to code that since I don't think it has much use since it's already in MSG Plus!.. but maybe i'll do it anyway this way I can also use it together with the Remote Support, so you can chat to people and use a number for each open convo instead of typing the email of the contact you want to send text to... so.. I'll properly be doing this...
The Lock Command, I'll have to talk with Patchou about something for this.. I have to know if there is a API call or something that you can send to MSG Plus! to activate this, or if there is another way.. or else I have to know the algorithm he uses to encode the Shortcut combinations, and i'll just have to decode these and make the plugin send these Shortcut keys, this is properly how it is going to be done, but this then requieres that the Command Lock feature will have to have a Shortcut Key set in MSG Plus! Options.. else I can't do this... If I get this working, then things like Boss Protection 1, 2, 3 and other various stuff will be possible, including the Custom Statuses, but they will also requiere a Shortcut Key for it to work, unless I find another way...

plus its not that hard, if you want to add it ill tell you how on msn. if not thats still ok, good plugin _b
Okay, might add this feature.. But I would rather not, since this goes beyond the Idea of the plugin, to control MSN Messenger and MSG Plus! with Icons/shortcuts, not everything else, if I add this feature, I would also have to add 100's of other features that all "would be usefull" but this would then destroy the main objective in this plugin... I'll think about it, and might add it, since it's very easy but... We'll see...
Edit:
BTW, how is the best option to contact Patchou? Shall I just PM him?, will I get an answer? Or does anybody else know about the Shortcut Values he uses in the registry? How to decode this value to know what the shortcut is?... Or somebody knows about some API Calls you can send to MSG Plus! to activate some of it features?.. or shall I try wait for the next release of MSG Plus! and API to see if we get more options?
