O.P. [REQ.] Replacing default, ugly emoticons with custom ones
I really wonder if someone would like to make a script like that, since we users have been forced for ages to use default emoticons in conversations for common expressions like smiling, laughing, feeling sorry, etc.., and, you know, those emoticons REALLY suck. ;)

Well, I'd like to do that on my own but I don't have any knowledge nor I have time to sit down and study how to do the whole thing, so I hope someone takes my suggestion and gives it shape somehow. :D

Wouldn't the person you're talking to need to have it too so they would ee the new emoticons? Why not just add custom ones and use those instead of trying to replace the old ones?

It's easy: I can't associate custom emoticons to the keyb combinations for default emoticons, such as :] and :[ (I wrote square parenthesis here, but I clearly intended round ones), since these combinations are already in use by the default emoticons themselves.

I remember stuffplug had the feature to assign custom emoticons even if they are being used by internal shortcuts... I don't know if it will be included in new one though...

That feature is nowhere to be found in the official exclusive preview published some time ago, though. I don't really know why it has been dropped by TheBlasphemer, StuffPlug3's developer.

It can be only do with your sended message. :s


Take this :
code:
function OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage(ChatWnd,Message){
     Message = replace(Message, ":)", "*smile*");
     Message = replace(Message, ":$", "*feeling sorry*");

     return Message;
}

function replace(txt, a, b){
    if(a.indexOf(b)==-1){while(txt.indexOf(a)!=-1)txt=txt.replace(a, b);}
    return txt;
}


There's a bad replace function because i don't know to use "replace(/gnagna/, "");" sorry.

It can defineitely be done... It was in stuffplug ng. It can't be done without advanced hooking though.

It may be in stuffplug, it might not. You could request it in the stuffplug forums....

When your contact send you a message, there's X char. And if you replace ':)' to '*smile*', the end of the text can't be write. You can replace with only the same length.

code:
function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(ChatWnd, Origin, Message, MessageKind){
   Message = replace(Message, ":)", "xx");

   return Message;
}

To cloudhunter: Already requested but noone answered. If noone releases it as a single script, well, let's hope TheBlasphemer adds it as a last minute option in his SP3 at least (but, judging from the preview I linked above, we can't rely on that).
