Hey Ted! Thanks again, almost there... I think there are only a couple of doubts left.

Okay, those two responses got me a little confused... is libindicate made for communicating only with the messaging menu or any specific indicator? Come to think of it, I did peek at libindicate-doc (whose existence I only realized recently), and there were some MessageMenu-specific sentences there... > Sure, I'm not defending the hardcoding or saying it's perfect.

And I was almost forgetting... are there any plans for Mono bindings to libindicate?
