Disp. Name Character Limit
Posted: Wed Apr 06, 2005 11:46 pm
the title really says it all. MSN has a limit of 129 characters for display names, after that it gets cut off. Adium currently allows you to type as much as you want in the display name field.
Since this feature is great for making fun of friends on my contact list I need to be sure that my display name isnt too long so that they may feel the full force of my sarcastic witticisms. It would be a pitty if a quality punchline is unknowingly cut short.
just wanted to ask to impliment a 129 character word limit on the display name field. since its so menial, perhaps someone could tell me which .nib or whatever it is I need to mess with to do this myself. That'd be spiffy, thanks.
while Im at it, does anyone have a simple way of clicking web links that contacts put in their display names? (I have alias' on so I only see links in tool tips, I currently have to turn off alias', click, then turn back on)
