Some of you may know and may not, the nexed http://msgplus.net/">Messenger PLus will be for and called Messenger Plus Live! for Messenger Live!. For anyone who has read the http://msgplus.net/">plus site. They may know that the old plugin system ahs been dropped and a new exiting scripting system, based on javascript has been built in. This i think is very impressive and cool as it allows anyone to customize (MOD) their Messenger Live! to their liking. It allows you to build bots and automate tasks.

   

   The documentation for the scripting has been released and can be downloaded http://mess.be/pafiledb/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=673">here.

   

   I read through it quickly and it's v.well documented. Well done!. It will be a valuble asset to Messenger Live. The most moddable chat programme just got a boost!

   

   here is an example from the doc's

   

   

   function OnEvent_Signin(Email)
   {
      var Message = "Hello Master " + Messenger.MyName + "!";
      Message = MsgPlus.RemoveFormatCodes(Message);
      MsgPlus.DisplayToast("", Message);
   }
   
   

   

   

   Save the script, sign out from Messenger and sign back in. You'll see a "toast" (a popup window displayed in the corner of your screen) welcoming you personally to Messenger (if Messenger itself displayed a toast after you signed in, you may have to close it to see the one displayed by the script).

   

   

   

   Messenger Live isnt out yet, i tried an early beta and it dindnt eeem much different. The later betas were different from the first betas. When its out (after they intergrate yahoo support), im personaly not going to be "upgrading" until i see the MSN Plus as i think this is a great tool, i used it mainly for quick tasks, like '/away NOT HERE'. Now with the script it is even more powerfull. Mess patch is already available :D
