O.P. Change Display Name in main window?
I'm sure this has been asked before but I couldn't find it when I did a search anyways what I want to do is be able to edit my Display Name directly from the main contact window without going to the options just like you can do with the Personal Message. I know before a long time ago I was able to do this with plus or something else but I don't remeber what. Anyways if someone has the answer would be appreciated :P btw I'm using the latest version of WLM 9 with plus and it works great

StuffPlug allows you to change your display name straight from the contact list window (up to 8.5), but as Stuffplug has not yet been updated to support the new interface format in messenger 9 it is more or less impossible for now.

Maybe a script. Skins can't do that =)

Yeh maybe I was reading the stuff plug guy use to do stuff for plus and he wanted to again maybe he can help integrate all the features not all ready in plus now into it. If someone else can some how enable this feature a different way that would be great.
