O.P. [Update (July 10 2007)] ReadThis 2.07
Hello all,

This script displays a toast message when you close a conversation too fast after receiving a message.
You can control the settings of the script through the settings window found in the ReadThis entry in the Plus! menu in your contact list.
The script supports the following commands:
  • /rtAbout - opens the about window
  • /rtOff - disables ReadThis toasts
  • /rtOn - enables ReadThis toasts
  • /rtSettings - opens the settings window

Please let me know if you find anything unusual so I can fix it.

Thanks in advance,
Jesus

Changes in version (2.0):
-All message types in OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage are now supported and can be individually turned on and off

-Sometimes a toast shows your own last message. (Confirmed, but I can't reproduce)Fixed? let me know please!!

Great script, great idea. It's great to see a simple script come together so professionally, hence I don't have any suggestions for it :).

well, thanks for the compliments :)

There still are no known bugs, so unless anyone finds one, this will be the version that will be shipped with the special MP!L release.

Great script!
I can't find any bugs, so enjoy your work :).
You could make this work with Nudges, Action Text etc (if it does already, just ingore :P), if you'll need something new.

Hey vikke,
thanks for your suggestion, nudges and action texts are indeed not yet supported. I'll look into that tonight, but it shouldn't be that big a problem.

O.P. RE: [Update] [Re-release] ReadThis 1.5
Just posted an update, not that much has changed this time, but more is on it's way.

The action messages and nudges are a bit more complicated than I thought at first. The problem is that xniff doesn't "know" which window is receiving the action message/nudge. I could fix it the dirty (and possibly easiest) way by just assuming that all the convo's containing a contact with the specified email receive the message. But first I want to take a look at the negative side-effects of that method and compare it to other ways of working around this problem.
Suggestions are welcome, ofcourse ;)

You can add Wink, Voice Clip, Search, and Search Results, by the OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage event at least. (h)
