It seems that beagle does not index old-style Gaim logs properly and hits return from them as being "today". An "old-style" log is a single log per "budy" which lives in ~/.gaim/logs/<buddy-id>.log. It is an HTML format such as the following:
<HTML><HEAD><TITLE>IM Sessions with [EMAIL PROTECTED]</TITLE></HEAD><BODY BGCOLOR="ffffff"> <HR><BR><H3 Align=Center> ---- New Conversation @ Tue May 5 13:27:12 2003 ----</H3><BR> <FONT COLOR="#0000ff"><FONT SIZE="2">(18:47:35) </FONT><B>Bob:</B></FONT> Good morning.<BR> <FONT COLOR="#ff0000"><FONT SIZE="2">(18:47:47) </FONT><B>Alice:</B></FONT> <FONT FACE="Comic Sans MS"><B><FONT COLOR="#0000ff">Hi</FONT></FONT></B><BR> <FONT COLOR="#0000ff"><FONT SIZE="2">(18:47:59) </FONT><B>Bob:</B></FONT> Did you watch that movie last night?<BR> <FONT COLOR="#ff0000"><FONT SIZE="2">(18:48:32) </FONT><B>Bob:</B></FONT> <FONT FACE="Comic Sans MS"><B><FONT COLOR="#0000ff">It was funny!</FONT></FONT></B><BR> <FONT COLOR="#0000ff"><FONT SIZE="2">(18:48:39) </FONT><B>Alice:</B></FONT> No, I missed it.<BR> <FONT SIZE="2">(13:47:13) </FONT><B>Bob logged out.</B><BR> <HR><BR><H3 Align=Center> ---- New Conversation @ Tue May 6 22:33:48 2003 ----</H3><BR> ... <HR><BR><H3 Align=Center> ---- New Conversation @ Mon May 12 23:47:18 2003 ----</H3><BR> And then it seems the log changed format at some point to not be in HTML: ---- New Conversation @ Thu Oct 19 13:22:21 2003 ---- (18:22:57) Alice: Hi (18:23:06) Bob: Hello (18:23:12) Alice: OK. Bye. (18:23:23) Bob: Yeah, bye. ---- New Conversation @ Mon Nov 20 17:32:42 2003 ---- ... Any chance of modifying the backend for Gaim to properly parse these older-style formats? Any chance that it will find already (wrongly) indexed old-style log files and re-index them? b. -- My other computer is your Microsoft Windows server. Brian J. Murrell
