Subject: [Skypeenglish] Skctl 1.2.4 released,supporting call
joins and transfers and other things
I have posted version 1.2.4 of Skctl, the Skype Controller,
adding the
following features since my last announcement here:
- A Join (or jo) command for joining an incoming call to the
current call to create a conference.
- A Transfer (or tr) command for transferring a call to another
person.
- Better information in the Calls table, including info on
transferred calls and identification of conferences.
- Way fewer tracebacks and crashes.
- Fewer "command timeout" messages when you type Skctl commands.
- The ability to use a period (".") in place of a Skype ID to use
the Skype ID of the currently selected contact in Skype itself.
This works for aa, call, message, and lo commands at this time.
WARNING: This uses the selected contact, not necessarily the
focused contact. See the online documentation for details.
- A fixed Resume command, for anyone who got an old 1.2.2
release.
I have also created a read-only Skype chat where I post more
frequent
update announcements for Skctl. Anyone who wants to see those
updates
should email me their Skype ID for me to add to the list. Note
that users
will not be allowed to post messages to this chat; it is a
one-way
broadcast chat only. Users will be able to see who else is on
the
list of chat members though.
General information on Skctl follows.
Skctl is a command-line Skype interface of sorts, with some added
features, most notably the ability to set up auto-answers for
specific
users, rather than turning autoAnswer on for everyone at once in
your
contact list. Other things you can do with Skctl include making
and managing calls, listing active file transfers with KBPS and
percent complete, playing voicemails, toggling microphone mute
with a
single-letter command, and getting a user's last-online time,
which the
Skype graphical interfaces currently don't provide accessibly.
Installation of the program on Windows requires first installing
ActivePython, the most widely used Windows Python distribution as
far
as I can tell. The program should work without extra work on
MacOS.
Installation instructions, system requirements, and a complete
reference on Skctl commands can be found at the following link:
http://www.dlee.org/skype/skctl/man.php
The main link for Skctl, which also leads to the documentation
page
just mentioned, is
http://www.dlee.org/skype/skctl/
From there, you can reach the documentation and get the current
release, version 1.2.4.
Since this is a very powerful interface, I strongly recommend
that users
first examine the documentation just mentioned before playing
with
Skctl commands. There is built-in help, accessible by typing
"help"
or "?" and pressing Enter at Skctl's "Skype>" prompt; but the
online
documentation is much more complete.
Happy playing.
