Dear, I want to contribute a patch and and a small module.
The patch (tooltip.patch) is against pidgin 2.5.5 shipped with Fedora 10. It basically re-enables old code to disable tooltips in the main window. It is configured with pidgin -> blist -> tooltip_delay in ~/.purple/prefs.xml The module (loc.c) is actually a minimalist implementation of functionality in the Sametime client. At IBM, we usually put our location in the status message (location being building, floor, telephone extension, mobile phone number, etc). The module updates the status message depending on the ip address the client uses. It uses a configuration file ~/.purple/loc.xml that looks like this: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?> <locations version='1.0'> <loc network='9.36.152.0' netmask='255.255.255.0' status='IBM Brussels' /> <loc network='9.36.153.0' netmask='255.255.255.0' status='IBM Brussels' /> <loc network='9.36.113.0' netmask='255.255.255.128' status='IBM Ghent' /> <loc network='192.168.42.0' netmask='255.255.255.0' status='Home' /> </locations> The network and netmask fields do not need any explanation. The status field should be the title of a saved status. The module probably needs some polishing and could benefit from a GUI. But it scratches my itch anyway ;-) Greetings from Belgium, And thanks for the excellent product. -- Luc Met vriendelijke groeten, Cordialement, Kind regards, Luc Ducazu Server Systems Operations, AIX System Engineer GTS, Integrated Technology Delivery (ITD) BeNeLux Office +32 2 225 2070 IBM Belgium Mobile +32 475 305660 Bourgetlaan 42 E-mail [email protected] BLS AZ504 W3ki SSO BeNeLux B - 1130 Brussels This e-mail may contain proprietary or confidential information.
