Is it possible to have a script that will remember your last status so when WML restarts it will return to that status?

To answer your question. Yes, it is possible. I don't have time to make it unfortunately but all it would require is saving the last status used when the user is signing off to a file. Then when the script is loaded simply changing the status to that stored in the file.

Hmm, made a simple little thing. Stores the status in a txt file, and supports multiple emails.

Why use a txt file, and not just the registry?

EDIT: Like this:

code:

---

var sleutel = "Status";

function OnEvent_Signout(Email)
{
  var status = Messenger.MyStatus;
  WriteRegistry(sleutel + "\\" + Email, status);
}

function OnEvent_SigninReady(Email)
{
  try
  {
    var status = ReadRegistry(sleutel + "\\" + Email);
    Messenger.MyStatus = status;
  }
  catch(err)
  {
    WriteRegistry(sleutel + "\\" + Email, "0");
  }
}

function WriteRegistry(key, value)
{
  var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
  var ValRegPath = MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + key;
  Shell.RegWrite(ValRegPath, value);
}

function ReadRegistry(key)
{
  var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
  return value = Shell.RegRead(MsgPlus.ScriptRegPath + key);
}

EDIT: Added a plsc file for easy importing

EDIT2: Forgot that multiple users can use msn, will edit, for the time beiing, don't use it

EDIT3: Added multiple users support, also updated the plsc file for easy importing.

Very nice Ezra.  It doesn't remember the Personalised Status but it still works great!        Thanks.

Why storing it at all?

You do not need to store anything, not in the registry, not in an external file...
Simply set the default signin status of WLM each time your status changes....

This even prevents that WLM will sign in with another status first.

code:

---

function OnEvent_MyStatusChange(NewStatus) {
    var SignInState = new Array(6, 2, 10, 14, 18, 34, 50, 66);
    if (NewStatus >= 2) {
        var Shell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
        Shell.RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Microsoft\\MSNMessenger\\PerPassportSettings\\"
                                                                                + Messenger.MyUserId
                                                                            + "\\DefaultSignInState",
                       SignInState[NewStatus-2],
                       "REG_DWORD");
    }
}

Note: It is not possible to (re)store a personalised status as there is no way in retrieving all the settings of a temporary status. Such settings are only stored in the memory of Messenger Plus! and there are no objects in the script system to read them.

Good idea Cookie . I didn't even think about doing it that way.. or that it would have to switch statuses using my method. nw

I never would have thought of that, but thats an awesome idea. Thanks guys, I'm using it now.
