OK, I am sorta new to this, so excuse any stupid/impossible things listed here.
I am a programmer (for myself and freinds) and after seeing these add-ons, I thought it would be cool to do one myself! Now, I’ve never programmed an add-on before, and was wondering if there was any tutorials anywhere…If you have ever seen one, please tell me.
There was one feature that I would really want to add to AIM (I’ll tell it later). It, however may not be something that an AIM addon would be able to do, and would require some other program (that i would have to write) like trillian. I was wondering if anyone knew how to load an AIM server into another window in:
Liberty Basic
OR
C++
or knew of a tut.
Thank you in advance and, as I said earlier, excuse stupidity and impossibility.
The feature I would like to add is:
INTERACTIVE AWAY MESSAGES!
It would work like this. The user creating the away message would type this in the box:
(COM: IF usersn=”sk8today”:)
(Message: Hey sk8today! I’ll be back ’round 5, feel free to keep talkin’ tho!)
(COM: IF message=”send me that file now!”)
(SendFile: “C:Program FilesTrillianTrillian.exe”)
(COM: IF sn=Teacher941)
(Message: Beleive me, I am doing my homework.)
(COM: IF sn=geek39 AND message=lol)
(Message: I don’t see what’s funny.)
(Noneabove: I’m away right now.)
Or the user could just enter a regular away message:
I’m away.
Wouldn’t that be cool!?
The first can be done by creating a new Away Message, with the text “Hey %n! I’ll be back ’round 5, feel free to keep talkin’ tho!”
The other could possible be programmed with a Bot.
Thanks for the bot site!
I knew about %n. I was demonstrating that I wanted to make it so if sk8today imed, they would not get the same message as the teacher, who should think that you are doing homework.
O…I see.
