Cookie, there wasn't really any need to jump on him like that. I know you're against such scripts/add-ons/plugins/magical fairies, but lighten up dude :P The guy knows it'll be inaccurate. TBH, this whole thread is mostly fluff, as all that was needed at the start was a note along the lines of:
'Ensure you include a warning about the inaccuracy of the script'.

nx01rules: I think it's great you're into the whole scripting thing, and I wish you luck with this one. As a public script, it may not be ideal, but for cutting your teeth on scripting, it's really very good.
And don't worry about Cookie: like anyone, sometimes he gets a bit passionate ;)

Maybe your next script could be more adventurous?

Nice one on the thread title... should have less hostility involved now :)

On-Topic: Any luck on notifying the window yet nx01rules?

Edit: Cookie's post removed, so I removed the relavant bits.

1) I didn't jumped on him in the first post, it gradually builded up by the ignorance of some people.

2) As you can READ in one of the posts I am not against such scripts.

3) Cut the crappy "lighten up dude" reply, that only makes things worse.

The guy knows it, and I know he knows it. BUT THAT IS NOT THE POINT!

Again, look at the much wider picture and the consequences it will bring once this is released as an "window notifier".... How can people be so blind for that?

yeah right, tbh, that wouldn't have helped one bit at all (without given explanation for others to read). Maybe I can remind you of all the previous threads about this issue? Including that last "16 page bible" thread about this...

Second, if you reread the post you'll notice that I actually DO state this in 1 line, the rest is explaning WHY I suggest it.

and how does it help when 671465415641 threads about the same subject exist? Nothing, absolutely nothing has been said here which is new or which deserves a new thread (the script is NOT released yet).

And to remind you, and that wouldn't be that hard now the threads are merged, even in the previous thread there was talk about how to create something like this.

Edit: @Cookie: Yeah you are right... Having lots of threads doesn't help and my responce was a bit strong. I just thought that by being in this thread it wouldn't get the recognition it deserves as, most people ignore this topic ;)

RE: The open/closed window notifier feature
Well short of injection or hooking the messenger window, i'm out of ideas. It would be possible to overlay a message over the window however, in much the same way as it's done with the iTunes+ script. Not an ideal solution though...

Thank you so much nx01rules for putting in the effort to create one. Just a suggestion if you do put in the disclaimer about it not being accurate, can you make it only pop up once ever so it doesn't become annoying.
