12:10:45 EWarmenhoven: ok, the new method for chosing a font: it tries the requested font at the requested size. if it can't do that, it tries the requested font at any size. if it can't do that, it tries courier at any size, then helvetica at any size. if it can't do *that*, it tries the person's default outgoing font, if they have one. if it can't do that, it tries courier, helvetica, then times, all in their most boring form (no bold, italics, etc) at any size. if it *still* can't do that, then there's just no hope, and it segfaults. but at least there's a few more layers of protection and probability that you're going to get *something* right
12:11:43 EWarmenhoven: i don't even know that it'll segfault, but i'm pretty sure it will, since by the time you get down there, it returns NULL :-P

gaim ======================== Rob Flynn <rob@linuxpimps.com> IM: RobFlynn (currnet maintainer) Eric Warmenhoven <warmenhoven@yahoo.com> IM: EWarmenhoven (Gnome Boy :)) Syd Logan - Super Hacker and Resident Designated Driver Jim Duchek <jimduchek@ou.edu> IM: Zilding (former maintainer) Mark Spencer <markster@marko.net> Build: ./configure ; make for the stock version. ./configure --help to see what option you can get. You need GTK 1.2.3. I don't wanna hear about it, if you can't get it to work under a lower version. Run: type "./gaim" If you want to build as a GNOME applet: ./configure --enable-gnome ; make then su to root and run "make install". Afterwards panel->Add applet->Network->Gaim should be there. Notes: This should now compile under Solaris, Digital Unix, Irix, etc w/o a problem. This compiles without warnings on Linux-x86 2.2.10 glibc2.1, GTK 1.2.3 system. If you get warnings on something else, let me know and I'll check it out. If you get errors, upgrade to the latest GTK-1.2 before bothering me. The resulting executable is standalone, so you can put it in /usr/bin or whatever. The panel (if you made an applet) requires certain things to be in certain places, but the Makefile/configure script should figure things out for you. Make sure to enable GNOME sounds if you want gaim sounds for the applet. Send me bug reports. The web page is http://www.marko.net/gaim and the ftp site is ftp://ftp.marko.net/pub/gaim Keep your eyes out for updates, and I'll try to keep the program maintained. Other contributors and patches are welcomed. Please read the FAQ first.
