<Bleeter> hmmm, whoever removed PROGRAMMING_NOTES might wanna update Makefile.am as well <rekkanoryo> that would be rlaager :) <Bleeter> (for 'make dist' doesn't) <Bleeter> rekkanoryo: I shoulda guessed. If it's not sadrul's fault, it must be rlaager's

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.
