Ok, so I had this idea AGGEESS ago, but it was more to get convos to look like an IRC chat (dont worry, was stupid idea), but now im back with an even zanier idea!
A IRC client for messenger.
I've been looking up activeX controls and stuff to give me some sort of telnet connection (but on port 6667) to an IRC server. Then after I looked at some IRC protocols (SENDMSG #msgplus test
) I thought maybe this wouldnt be to hard to do after all.
The way I thought of today of doing this, goes like this.
When the script starts its IRC functinality, it opens telnet window (one per server connected) then hides it both visably and in task bar. Then send commands to the window, and read commands from the window (then clearing them so they wont be read again). All this will be done with Interop calls and some User32 methods.
Sound possible?
Anyone got any better ways of how this could be done?
Something that will activate a function like OnTelnetMsgReceive(MsgReceived) so then I could parse the info and display it in the right chat window.
