I'm a bit green when it comes to applescript, so please bear with me. I checked all of the scripts on adiumxtras.com and I couldn't really find anything that dealt with dis/connecting accounts in Adium to use as an example.

I used the "open dictionary" feature in the script editor to see what methods adium supports.

I see: connect account : an account
and: disconnect account : an account (if no account is specified, all disconnect)

So I tried:

Code: Select all

tell application "Adium"
	activate
	disconnect
end tell

But nothing happened. Likewise, telling it to "connect account fahrvergnuugen" after I manually disconnected did nothing.

What am I doing wrong?

Applescript is pretty buggered in Adium right now. If you post it on trac, the devs will fix it when the get a chance.

Okay, will do as soon as the trac comes back online (currently 500'd).

I found another entry in the trac complaining about applescript connect / disconnect syntax

This works:

Code: Select all

tell application "Adium"
	connect account 1
end tell

that will connect the first account in the list.

You're not identifying an account by name by just putting a name after the word account.

connect (first account whose UID is "fahrvergnuugen")
