O.P. Help: Sending File
Is there any function that is called when the user sends a file? I tried OnEvent_ChatWndSendMessage but nothing happens when a file is sent.

RE: Help: Sending File
There are no events atm no, there originally was a SENTFILE item in the MessageKind Enum, but it was removed.

The only ways of detecting a file transfer is using Active Accesability or Protocol Sniffing.
SoundPacks   -   Scripts   -   Skins

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

you could use when Messagekind == 0 which is unknown.  The only problem with this is that it will do anything that isn't a specific message kind.  I'm not sure how else you could do it.  Or there is also the possibility that you can monitor the received files folder (you can get it's directory from a registry setting).

I tried that, no file transfers come up at all.

How would you do that in JS?

Active accesability may be possible to use an event hook and AccessibleObjectFromWindow as you can from C++, but not sure.

For protocol sniffing, you should be able to use [Release] Xniff (ActiveX Packet Sniffer) - Examples inside
