I think errdesc was meant to be used here, not errmsg. errmsg isn't initialized and errdesc is, and errdesc makes the happy little error box show up at the bottom of the buddy list. Fixes a crash when attempting to register for a new account (and failing because my phone number is invalid--maybe I have to be in South Africa?)

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.
