Hi,

A quick request for a (theoretically) simple plugin, that will send a message based on a message just recieved. e.g.

If you wanted to spiffy it up a bit, you could add variables:

%trigger% - Triggering message
%friend% - Other person's user name
%self% Your user name

---

Etc.

Thanks,

This is requested many times before (so in future, you might wanna search the forums first before posting)...

Anyways, this is not possible to do with a plugin because Messenger Plus! does not parse every text send by your contacts to the plugin API (only Plus! commands are parsed).

The Messenger addon MessengerDiscoveryX has a feature like that though.

For that you can make a bot/autoresponder. Have a look at Bot Developers Kit available!.

Edit: you do need programming experience for this

How does the Word Filtering work then?

Sorry about the searching, it just seemed a little too vague to be able to do a decent search for.

Well, I know PHP...
What do I need? C? C#.NET? Maybe this will give me the motivation to get my arse into gear and learn something remotely useful...

EDIT: Never mind, I just read a little more of the linked thread. Thanks!

C/C++ is best Or you can try VB.NET.

i tried this once before- none of the feature of this worked
so i wouldnt really recommend it, maybe it was just something i didnt do

I think I'll learn VB first... one step at a time, I think...

Word filtering isn't part of the plugin architecture, it is directly programmed within Plus!. Text send to you are not parsed to the plugins.
