developer.pidgin.im— Every bodies favorite open source free software multi-protocol instant messaging application just got a big update. It's first since 12/7/2007
Mar 1, 2008View in Crawl 4
Except it doesn't work. The input area shrinks by a few pixels whenver you use the backspace key, and re-expands when you type again, which is quite distracting.
Don't update, the build has an issue that prevents at least some messages Irc from getting delievered that contain characters that are different from a-z..A-Z...1-9
The devs from pidgin like to change small s**t just to piss people off.For example, in 2.4.0 - you can no longer resize the textarea of the IM window. The bar that separates the chat from where you type can no longer be moved. What the f**k for?You ask the people in IRC and they'll say, "it's supposed to be like that" - no, it's f**king not. Past versions did it just fine, and it's a basic UI thing. I prefer to have a large text area to type in. Now I have to use an older version because of this s**t.Other past changes include: ctrl+# no longer makes smiley as in all other IM clients (not a big deal, but why remove it?), and escape no longer closes the IM window (highly f**king annoying)
yes it can. logging is not enabled by default afaik.1. focus main window2. press control-P3. select logging4. check the checkboxes.5. chat6. Look in C:documents and settings\application data.purplelogs
