pidgin logs are stored as hidden directories on the home folder under .purple. The logs are stored in text/html format so GDS can easily index them.
But the problem is GDS does not index inside hiddeb directories. One solution was to make a copy of the logs somewhere outside the hidden directory for GDS to access and index. But how does one do a regular periodic process something like a cron job. Any idea?
