A nice script would be that once activated once all (or one) files transfers are done the script:

- Shutdown messenger
- Signs out
- Changes status to x
- Shutdown PC

A friend was sending me a song and its taking ages and I want to sleep.

Plus! Scripts can't interact with the file transfers directly, but from what I've heard of the Who Sent It script, it could be possible. Dempsey and Eljay (the script creators) are (or were?) working on a way to detect file transfers and interact with them, so if they finish the script (if they're still working on it of course), it might be possible you can do that. But, therefore we need to know the progress of the Who Sent It script...

Yes but the script could detect that if messenger puts the message: "The file recived ... has completed " then it does x..

Plus! scripting can't detect "action messages" like these, only messages sedn between one user and another

I could make a script to do this using the File Transfer Lib Eljay and I coded for Who Sent It, but tbh it's not very reliable atm.

Well try it out. I think its worth it.

Well if it can't pick up action messages, then just make it pick up the phrase of "The file received ... has completed". I doubt someone is gonna put THAT exact phrase.

I'm sure they won't be using such a dodgy way of doing it. This would be one of the worst ways to do that. Such messages can be interpreted using StuffPlus's action messenger sender function. I believe that Dempsey was detecting this using received packets.

Even if it is the worse way, it seems to be the easiest yet sloppiest way to do for now.

You don't need any script or any (very) dodgy way to do it....

PS: detecting "the file recieved... has completed" isn't possible with scripts either...


Just enter shutdown.exe -s -f -c as the virus detection program in Messenger's options:

Tools > Options > File Transfer > Scan files for virusses with > shutdown.exe -s -f -c
