Have you ever been waiting for someone in MSN?
Have you ever played a game while you were connected?

When you wait you get bored, when you get bored you play a game, but if you play a game you don't realice when someone get's online(sound doesn't work properly).But what about the internal speaker?

Have you ever need someone's help but he was a playing a game and didnt' know that you were talking?

Don't really want this script...but sounds good

Thank you SonicSam.

I forgot to comment that an external wireless "beeping hardware" is under development, and that this version is Beta so it doesn't have all features like music editor (for internal speaker).

Would you be able to make an english translation??

I will try it.

The second beta version is out.

I'm sorry.The english version had a bug, now I've uploaded the correct version.

I will try to explain how it works.

Install the script.

HOWTO WAIT FOR SOMEONE

Go to butterfly icon and then go to The Beeper menu and click in configure contacts...

Now select a contact and click on "Notify me when...", check  "User signs in" and then close the windows. When the selected user sign in, your PC will start to emit a beep throught the iternal speaker. To stop it, go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and then click on "stop beep!".

HOWTO ENABLE BOT BEEP

When you are playing or watching a movie, you don't want to get disturb if it's not important.Beeper bot will attend your conversations and say to everyone who try to speak to you that they can warn you by writing the beep command.

Go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and click on "configure contacts...". Select a contact and click on  "Enable Beeper BOT", configure a message for this contact, typically "I'm busy, if it's important write !beep" or something similar, the confirmation message tell the user that !beep command has succesfully executed and the reconfirmation message warn the user if the PC is beeping. Repeat this step for every contact that you want to allow to use this service. Beeper will ignore unset contacts, so it will be like beeper it's not installed for this contacts.

Now you have to enable beeper in at least one status. Go to butterfly menu, beeper menu and then click on "Enable when...". Check Busy state. This will do that every time you go to busy status beeper will enable the bot, otherwise beeper will be like it's uninstalled. You can also check Away and Idle for example. Now go to one of the selected status tro activate the beeper bot, for example busy.

You will see "(under beeper)  " plus your old personal message in your personal message. This prefix message will be erased when you go to an status in which beeper is disabled. Sometimes this not happen you can delete it manually if this is the case. Beeper bot is enabled.

Play your favorite game, if some of the enabled commands speaks to you, beeper bot will reply with your message. If then they write !beep, your PC will start beeping. You can also change the beep characteristics in the butterfly menu,beeper menu "Configure beep sound...".

The Enable hardware button by now does not do anything,it's for a future version.

I hope you like it,

please leave feedback...

Hmmm, I like this alot...

In the contact configuration menu, to be abit more organised, wouldn't mind seeing what contacts i'm being notified for [yes/no] in "Notify me when..."

Just to let you know also, in the English translation, there are a few spelling errors

Thanks good script, bye
