allright, this is a very simple idea and only a small function but I, along with a few friends to whom I talked about it really would like to see this implemented.

Basically, as there are the functions such as /away, /signout, I would like to hav e a "/quit" to log out and close the program (even from the tray). I would find it very usefull because very ofen I just have the temptation to do so, or I type /signout but then I still have to rightclick and exit.

I hope you consider this,
thanks patchou

I suppose this could be useful...but for the effort of right-click and close it's probably not worth it. The command would probably be /exit

"quit" is faster and slightly easier to type, but thanks anyway

I don't see how I just measured how long it took me to type /exit and it was about 0.3 seconds...same as /quit...so I don't see that being a problem
Unless there's a demand for a feature Patchou wont add it in the next update (in a few months)...If more people want it Patchou will add it, I suggest you encourage as many of your friends who want this feature to sign up and post their encouragement for the idea in this thread...

I think it be useful. Wouldnt use it much though, since i just leave msn mesenger on all the time.

hmm, i don't see how typing "quit" is any faster than typing "exit" either. ok, the buttons on the keyboard for "quit" are all on the same row, so they're closer together. (but the difference's probably somewhere in the milliseconds )

anyway, i too think such a command, be it "quit", "exit" or "shut down the currently running instance of msn messenger 6" (anyone who can think of a longer one? ) would be useful

someone could easyly make a plugin using this...

ill do it if u give me more commands, one isnt enough. ill start on it after i finish my hwk..... crappy maths. pm me some more commands
or something along those lines

so theres
- signout

Yeah but it wouldn't be /exit it would be /xexit...unless you made it /xit

Patchou did include a /signout command in Plus!, so right-click > Sign Out is more effort?

I like the idea very much, and really hope Patcou will add this feature

And as for /exit or /quit they both good imo. If it is /exit, and someone wants it to be /quit, he can alsways make a quicktext /exit with alias quit, so everyone will be happy
Same for plugins commands
