I'm getting some odd looks here at home. I have the cats soundpack
for Adium, and of course, any time I log in, I get a lot of cat
noises--so now I've taken to petting and scritching the invisible
kitties! It was funny when I found jmyself doing it the first time--
now I do it just for the heck of it.
On another note, I am absolutely loving the way I can configure my
contacts to have different voices. It's fun!
For those who are having trouble, do a command-i onthe contact, go to
the events tab, go to the table, and count down to 14. Then hit the
button to the right of that. When it shows you the edit box for
"speak specific text" you can put
%n user name
%a alias
%m message
%t time
You don't have to have all of those and you can put them in whatever
order you want.
I generally use
%a %m
(alias and message)
you put spaces between each set so it would be
%a space %m
or whatever.
I usually find too that I want to change the voice from the system
voice, and that's easy to fix. Then I usually want to adjust the
pitch, so I have to check the box for "use custom pitch" and I usually
slide mine way upwards.
Then I just clic on the OK button there, and then on the close button
to take me out of that dialog altogether.
