How about we just remove flashing altogether? As a user aptly said to me the other day, <blink> is so 1990s. Rather than getting rid of it altogether, how about making it more of a pulse than a blink? You know, with nifty Quartz-ish fading. It'll still get your attention, but with a little more sty...

1) Hold down option while in the File menu. Voila! Speaking of which, has anyone noticed a (minor) glitch with this? If my mouse is already over the "Remove Away Message" menu item when I press option, the new submenu appears farther down than it should. http://hosting.assortedgeekery.com...

ctrl + click on the toolbar, and select "Customize Toolbar…" and there, there should be a "Insert Script" button to add. That much I could've figured out on my own ;) If there isn't, then this user is using the SVN Hm, figured as much. Thanks :) Here's my desktop, by the way: ht...

Questions About Scripting Support

Why in Adium scripts is it necessary to check if the "other" application is running before targeting it? Rather than doing this in every script, why not have Adium itself handle errors? I don't intend this as a criticism, I'm genuinely curious. Also, is there any way to get the result of a...
