comparison libfaim/README.gaim @ 707:668b4d544afe

[gaim-migrate @ 717] la la la. libfaim changes, this time all of it was me. removed the permit/deny stuff, it was waaaaaay too buggy. also made it so aim_conn_kill closed the connection too. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

706:a9758452f3c4

included with the libfaim source on sourceforge) with the Gaim GTK front-end.
So far the changes to libfaim that I've made are:
- remove mkbuildinfo.sh and put the #defines it creates into Makefile.am
- fix a typo in aim.h - "aim_directim_initiate", not "aim_directim_intiate"
- add #if HAVE_GETADDRINFO in aim_ft.c for Solaris people

And finally, a word of warning. Gaim/Faim is VERY buggy. Please, don't use this
for anything other than laughs right now. Hopefully we'll get it working better
soon (please help!).

Telling the server who's on your permit/deny lists
Chat:
 - joining rooms

CURRENTLY UNSUPPORTED FEATURES
==============================
Warning users/getting warned
Chat:
 - whispering (this will never happen)
Getting/setting dir info
Changing your password

KNOWN ISSUES
============
- Oscar doesn't do whispering in chat rooms any more (and hasn't for quite a
while, evidently). So if you want to "whisper" to someone, just IM them.

- The permit/deny list stuff is really warped. I'm probably going to comment it
out soon and try to figure out what's going on.

- "Allow anyone" and "Deny some" serve the same function. That's not a bug. But
"Allow anyone" works all the time (?) and "Deny some" doesn't work some of the
time. That's a bug.

- aim_conn_kill wasn't close()'ing connections, so I added that

- The permit/deny list stuff is really warped. I've commented it out; the code
in libfaim is untested and it's causing way too many problems.
