O.P. add custom emoticons?
how can i add custom emoticons from a script?

edit: ok so i've found where they're stored but it seems i need to decrypt map.dat, edit it, then recrypt it. doesn't seem possible.
is there anything i can do to have messenger add them? (vbscript the api or something)

There's the Content Installer API, that should be useable from JScript. I believe it's TypeLib 7 in both Messenger 7.5 and WLM.

If you want me to post the contents of the typelib, just say.

O.P. RE: add custom emoticons?
i want to be able to type "/emot blah" and it would add a custom emoticon (of an image predefined in the script) whose shortcut code is blah.

basically it's for when my friend's using a mocker, i talk in custom emoticons so the messsage for me is in custom emots but he just says the shortcuts.

i can do all the splitting blah into five seven-character things per message myself.

so no, i don't think backup extreme would be appropriate.

content installer i'd have to pack it into cabs on-the-fly. i'll look into whether that's possible.

p.s. my english fails sometimes when i can't properly explain myself. sorry. i hope you understood.
