>Summary: Mistaken insertion of smiley in history log

Initial Comment:
When recent conversation logs are shown upon starting a
new IM window, some timestamps have smileys at the end
of them.

I believe this is because the timestamp is formatted so
that the time is surrounded by parentheses, and when a
timestamp ends in an 8, the last two characters of the
timestamp, 8), are replaced by the "sunglasses" smiley.

What was the problem removing the <font sml=""> tags solved?

I thought the <!-- --> comment tags were a crude hack for
turning timestamps on and off, not surpressing smileys. I'd
have to check, but I'm thinking smileys are surpressed by a
flag to the append command.

gtkimhtml uses <!-- ... --> to suppress smilies,  
right? In gtkconv.c, we're wrapping the timestamps  
with comment delimiters. Could we instead have  
<font sml=""> denote no smilies? In that case, we  
could write that into the log files. I'd prefer that  
over enclosing the timestamps in comment  
markers in the log files, because then you'd still  
be able to see the timestamps if you opened the  
logs in a regular browser.  
 
Granted, I submitted a patch a while back to 
remove the <font sml=""> tags from logs, but that 
was to solve a different problem. The idea I'm 
describing here wouldn't lead to a regression 
with respect to that problem.

Oh, you want us to break our smiley support to be
incompatabile with the rest of the world to work around a
bug elsewhere?

I also "vote" for this bug to be fixed. It's a long time annoyance
presented in 
Gaim. The smileys should be only displayed if there's at least one
white-space 
character before them (space, tab, newline character, ...)
btw, it's not only win32 category ;)

This subject covers the topic best... but several bugs
relate to this:
1189447, 1084916, 1020236, 1008313...

I'd like to go further than what these bugs raise and say
that smileys should only appear when they are space-delimited.

It's not reasonable to expect people to take care not to
accidently type something that contains a smiley. Good
examples are timestamps, links and other protocol and file
specifications.

I would prefer to see the occasional smiley be displayed as
text rather than see smileys in the middle of pathnames, etc...

In many of my conversations when I type something like a
CVSROOT path which in my case includes :p gaim inserts a
simley.  Maybe simley's should only be used when there is at
least one character of whitespace on each side of the simley.
Or is there preceedence for inserting smileys in text like

:ext:picasso
