%time%

Post by tehJR »

Is there anyway to tell Adium to use a different time/date format other than the 'Medium' one in the International preference pane?

I have mine set like this:

So the date in the menu bar looks like this:

But now the message styles that show the time with %time% display this whole date, which takes up a lot of room:

I'd like to just have the time in the message window. Is this possible?

What format does it accept?

I tried %text{h:mm a}% but that doesn't work.
