How often do you intend to keep updating this script? I ask simply because meebo seems to be pretty active in the add-annoying-crap department lately, most of it centering around that damn tray icon dealy that doesn't work well.

I can understand it being a lot of busy work. Just curious on how invested you are into keeping it updated.

I've been testing my newest version of the script. I'm uploading it now, please let me know if anything isn't working right!

Since I use Meebo everyday, I immediately update the script but it's a little buggy. So it takes a couple weeks to work out all the bugs. I'm also planning on making this available as a Firefox extension in a couple months.

Let me know if you'd like to see any new features.

Sweet.

And hell, features? I dunno. What kind of thing is up your alley? Do you already have anything planned outside of current functionality?

So all of these will eventually be implemented (the users' opinion will determine the order).

1. Create menu for making changes (without editing the code) to enable/disable different options.
2. Notify user when they are using an outdated version.
3. Auto re sign in when user gets disconnected.
4. Convert to Firefox extension.
5. Allow users to export chat history to text file.
6. Enable users to customize Meebo (beyond what's allowed). Like, custom backgrounds, custom code, custom auto-reply to select users (kinda like an auto away).

Currently the order is 1,2,3,4,5,6 if no one comments. :)

Can you do custom colors for chat text boxes? I'd like white on black rather than the current black on white.

I'll try to come up with more. Busy week. Work's playin' with our schedules. Got myself 16 hours of OT though.

Btw, meebo currently signs you back in on disconnect.

Oo, almost forgot. Something to block user icons, if possible.
