<0> hello.
<0> anyone here?
<1> hi
<0> i noticed when i run gaim twice, it opens 2 gaims. is there anyway to prevent this? besides using the system tray icon?
<2> Write a wrapper for gaim.
<0> i cant program
<2> It would be a four or five line shell script to not run a copy when one is already running.
<2> Or just look at your system tray/taskbar before running gaim again.
<1> I think one line.
<0> ok. thanks.
<0> is there a way to change the icon of the gaim system tray icon?
<2> You can either replace the image file itself, or mess with your gtk theme (I think).
<0> hmm, ok.
<0> ill look in the icons folder.
<3> is there any way to simulate a double click on gaim's system tray icon using a keybinding/keyboard shortcut?
<2> Not by default, though you can do so with a plugin, and at least one such exists. (***uming you mean to retrieve gaim once it has been closed into the notification area icon.)
<3> deryni: my main goal is to open new messages which are waiting there. Could you point me to that plugin?
<2> Ah, that's something slightly different but also probably doable from a plugin. It's called hotkeys I think.
<3> deryni: found it. thanks a lot.
<4> how do i find a list of available fonts to use for "urxvt -fn ..." ?
<5> you need to specify some non-default font?
<4> i am trying to. i got an example "urxvt -fn "9x15,xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono"", but it's a bit too big
<6> sadrul: are those not the same as from xfontsel?
<6> I guess not
<4> yeah, probably not
<7> definitely not
<5> its using Xft for its fonts
<6> I am guessing that 9x15 is the char dimensions... does that scale the fonts properly?
<4> reducing the size (eg. using 8x12) gives errors
<6> perhaps it is proportional?
<6> try 6x10?
<4> heh, too small :)
<6> but it worked?
<4> yeah!
<2> xlsfonts
<4> deryni: thanks!
<2> Yup.
<6> ah so 6x10 is just a font itself
<2> It's an alias technically I think.
<6> it does include the ugly X font strings
<8> Quick question...I'm still somewhat new to linux, so sorry if this sounds weird, but...
<8> When I'm typing in my p***word at the gaim prompt, it displays weird box characters instead of the usual asterisks. Is this normal?
<9> dunno
<9> i just get big black dots
<8> Huh
<7> your font doesn't have the glyph for the Unicode p***word field character
<8> That's what I suspected...
<8> Is the font that's used for the p***word prompt box defined in GTK, or gaim?
<7> in GTK+; gaim uses the default GTK+ font for everything unless explicitly told otherwise (such as by an incoming message or the .gtkrc-2.0)
<2> Your gtkrc theme controls the gaim interface font.
<10> is there a channel for the 2.0 betas?
<7> this is it, unless you're on windows
<10> rekkanoryo, fair enough. I just got confused with the topic.
<10> does anyone know if there is a way to get the icons back in the chat windows? Ie. send, warn, info, etc.?
<7> no, you can't
<10> ahh ok
<7> they were completely removed
<10> rekkanoryo, do you happen to know if there was a particular reason for it or no?
<7> there were several reasons, the only one of which i can recall now was to simplify the interface
<10> ahh ok. I was just trying to figure out how to explain to my computer illiterate mother how to send messages...she insists on clicking things heh
<7> ah, yes, another was that it was a common complaint that it was too easy to click one of those buttons by mistake. As I recall, there were a few people who asked to keep the send button, but the argument didn't carry much weight
<10> eh, it happens. People will adapt
<10> perhaps having it as a plugin would be a better option
<7> yes, that might be a good idea for those users who absolutely demand the buttons
<11> I know this should be easy to do, but I can't for the life of me figure hout how to make gaim sort by online/offline status
<12> Frazzydee, on 2.0 i have Buddies -> Sort buddies -> By status
<11> notsmack: I don't...maybe I should download 2.0 then ;)
<11> sorry, just realized I have an old version...thanks
<12> Frazzydee, it's a beta
<11> oh, I see...do you know if 1.5.0 supports that sort of thing?
<12> i'm not sure, i thought it did
<11> yeah, it should...it does have an option for it, that option just doesn't work
<12> oh, interesting
<12> it works here
<11> it sorts it fine within the groups, but I want all the groups mixed together
<7> you can't do that
<12> ohh
<12> then mix all your groups together i guess
<7> you're stuck with the groups, unless you drag everyone into one group
<11> ugh, that stinks
<11> yeah, I guess I'll have to...I never used groups anyways
<11> thanks
<7> and before the question comes up, no you can't hide the display of the group
<11> actually, it hid itself automatically :P
<7> no, i mean the display of the group name
<11> oh, yeah whatever, that's fine :)
<7> you'd be surprised how many people complain about not being able to do that
<11> really...seems like a non-issue to me :P
<11> whiners... ;)
<12> yeah, i think i've complained about that at some point in the past
<13> is there a gaim binary for os-x?
<1> try Adium X
<13> I think I have adium installed, however it doesnt have IRC
<13> seanegan: I just checked itt, I do have it installed but it doesnt fo irc
<13> sefound manual to install and compile it....
<14> am i correct in ***uming the username is no longer required in plugin id's since register.php no longer exists and the source of every 2.0 plugin that i've looked at doesn't have it?
<15> what is the install directory for gaim
<16> it's installed under /usr
<15> im trying to install the xfire plugin and the install directions are awful
<16> spartan777, put it ~/.gaim/plugins/
<15> how do i find ~/.gaim/plugins/
<15> it isn't directly under /usr
<16> spartan777,
<16> in unix
<15> im in linux
<16> the tilde is your home directory
<15> hehe sry
<16> /home/yourusername/.gaim/plugins/
<15> i found it, but there is no ~/.gaim/plugins directory
<4> rylz: ?
<15> im in ubuntu, if that matters
<15> the only folders inside .gaim are 'icons' and 'smiley'
<17> hello folks
<15> hi
<17> uhmm... where are the options to change menus font settings ?
<17> both at the buddy list and conversation windows
<15> the default plugins are located in /usr/lib/gaim, but only ".so" files exist there.
<14> sadrul: from the doxygen docs in the source tree: http://24.182.200.224/plugin-ids.html
<4> rylz: oh
<4> rylz: no. it's not "necessary", but it's a good practice.
<15> so anyone know where i can find the gaim/plugins directory?
<14> ok, but why is register.php no longer on gaim.sf.net?
<4> rylz: it avoids the chances of "collisions", eg. you can use two "autoreply" (or any other) plugins by two different authors
<14> oh ok i see
<4> rylz: what did it use do?
<14> apparently you could somehow register for a unique username to use for plugin id's, since it's linked to from that page
<4> heh, i never knew it existed
<14> well i also found a reference to gaim 1.1 being current in those docs, so they can't be the most up-to-date docs in the world ;)
<12> rylz, you should probably find new docs.
<14> they're compiled from 2.0beta3, and i doubt cvs docs are much newer
<14> sadrul: should i change that page to just suggest using the sourceforge id and send in a patch?
<4> rylz: the docs are really outdated. so i think patches to update it will be quite welcome
<14> ok
<17> how can i change the font size of the buddy list ?
<15> anyone know how to install the xfire plugin???
<16> garimbo, tell csmanx about ext-prefs
<16> garimbo, extprefs?
<18> well, extprefs is http://gaim-extprefs.sf.net
<16> that plugin will do it
<16> it allows you to change among other things: font sizes
<19> Hi everybody!
<2> Howdy.
<20> Hello. :)
<19> I wonder if we should list Herman as a retired developer?
<19> I met warmenhoven a few days ago
<2> Nifty.
<19> I need to call up Christian, too
<19> Does anyone else cool live in the Bay Area?
<21> i wants me some sip/jingle up in my Gaim-izl, dawg.
<22> wow, what terible english :)
