I updated this plug-in yesterday. This version fixes the problem with AIM 6.5 where invisibility was not being set properly at first sign in. I also added a new about window that you can access from AIM 6.5’s Help menu. The about window has a way to send feedback.
Be sure you sign-out and exit from your IM client before installing this plug-in.
Let me know if you have any questions. I will post my answers in the comments.
Last night I released and update to my RX-Plugin. This new version has a number of fixes, new features, and an all new registration model. You can now download this plugin directly from the plugin’s main page. I have improved the activation mechanism to make it easier to automatically paste this data into the activation dialog. The installer will now direct you to the registration page if you have not activated a copy of this plugin before.
New in this release is the remote control feature that lets you specify any number of screen names that can control your client while you are online. The commands let the remote user send special IM messages to change your away (.rc away) and status (.rc status) messages. You can also let the remote screen name sign you out (.rc signout) of your IM client. These settings will apply to any screen name that is signed in from your Windows login session.
Another new feature, is the new set of /idle commands. You can toggle idle by sending “/idle” in an IM. You can also set yourself as having been idle for a specific number of minutes by adding a number to the end of the /idle command, e.g., “/idle 90″. I have been asked to provide a simple way to toggle the passive idle lock option, this can be done by sending “/idle passive”, or “/idle p” for short. To make it easy to access the idle lock settings, you can open the RX-Plugin settings window in the idle lock tab by sending “/idle settings” or “/idle s” for short. None of these messages will be sent to your buddy so you can enter them in any IM compose field.
The last seen feature has been extended to save the last 10 status messages and last 8 away messages set by all the buddies on your buddy list. Give it a try.
Finally, I have to mention that this plugin runs best on the latest AIM 6.5 Beta, especially the status message features.
Let me know what you think. I appreciate all feedback. Enjoy.
