[gaim-migrate @ 852] HTML widget is faster, more stable :) oh my cs teacher would be so proud. here's a description of the old algorithm and my new improved one: old algorithm: print as much text as we can. then try printing the rest of it. with at 4000 character message, this usually leads to a stack about 200 functions deep. depending on the amound of memory you have, this may have lead to a segfault. new algorithm: if we can print it all, print it all. if we can't { if we've already printed stuff on this line then finish printing the line. print the first half of the stuff, then the second half. } this usually leads to a stack no deeper than about 20 functions. it also causes the widget to be much faster. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

	* Paned buddy chat window (Thanks Syd)
	* Buddy lists (and changes) are cached to ~/.gaim/<sn>.blist
	  where <sn> is your screen name. If for some reason, you log
          into the AOL server and the buddy list comes back empty, we
	  check for a cache file, and, if we find one, read it in. This
          essentially implements recovery from a server crash at AOL
	  (AOL does not back up machines that contain TOC-based buddy
	  lists, unfortunately).  (Thanks Syd)
