annotate libpurple/purple-send @ 27674:e5fdfff98aa9

When GNU Libidn is available, use it for XMPP stringprep operations. I made configure fail if libidn is unavailable and force_deps is set because glib's UTF-8 strdown and casefold operations fail one of the tests I've updated (based on running the tests with libidn). Running without libidn will still work in almost every case because people use all-ASCII JabberIDs and I had to search a fair amount to find characters for which GLib failed. This shouldn't have a performance impact on top of Mark's optimizations for all-ASCII JIDs.

This program calls purple API functions using DBus and prints the return value.
If you are not interested in the return value, use purple-send-async.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 PurpleAccountsFindConnected string: string:prpl-jabber
   $0 PurpleAccountsGetAll
   $0 PurpleCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
