[gaim-migrate @ 4133] Ok, big commit with little functionality change. Most of it is me shuffling crap around because I'm one of them neat freaks. Lots of general code cleanup too. I'm trying to move to that whole "one-family-per-file" thing. The details... I added libfaim support for aim's new search family, 0x000f. I only tested this briefly, so if anyone uses it for anything, be aware that it could be buggy. I'll add oscar support sometime. Advantages of this family are... when you search for someone, you get the directory info for that person. So like, first name, middle name, last name, maiden name, city, state, country, zip, address, interests, nickname, and maybe some other stuff. Basically all the info that they've set in their directory info thing. Info. Oh, and I'm calling it "new search" because seach was already taken, and cookie monster ate my right brain. The reason I didn't add support to oscar.c... the new search family requires making a connection to another server. While moving stuff around I realized that I didn't really like how new connections are made. It's kind of sloppy. I'm thinking it would be nice to have an outgoing queue for each type of connection, and then let the client queue messages as much as they want. Then, if libfaim sees that there is a message for a certain type of connection, and there is no open connection of that type, it will connect, and then flush the queue when the connection is made. This seems a lot cleaner, but it also seems like a pain in the ass. I should do ssi for icq first, anyway :-) Also, I think it would be neat if there was an ICBM file that handled channels 1 through 4. Then im.c and chat.c could pass the ICBM part to the icbm stuff and it could get parsed there. im.c is really huge right now. I applied a patch from Graham Booker that paves the way for unicode in direct IMs. Thanks Graham. Now we just need Paco-Paco to git a little free time and write a patch for this. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=633589&group_id=235&atid=300235 I applied 2 patches from Will Mahan dealing with file transfer/oft/rendezous/whatever. Here's some info on them, from The Man himself: Patch 1 "Currently the Rendezvous code is rather messy; this patch attempts to bring it up to speed with the rest of the Oscar prpl. Its changes include: * Rewrite several ft.c functions to use bstreams. Apparently the code in question was written before bstreams were implemented. * Handle incoming Rendezvous packets through the rxqueue like FLAP packets, rather than handling them as a special case as soon as they are received. This takes advantage of the bstream cleanup to unify some code and simplify the aim_frame_t struct. * Change some names used to try to clarify the distinction between OFT, which refers specifically to file transfer, and Rendezvous, which encompasses OFT as well as other types of client-to-client connections." Patch 2 "* Add some comments I inadvertently left out of my last patch. * Fix a double-free that occurs when connections time out. * Correct a bug causing filenames to be truncated by 4 characters on some clients. * Preserve directory structure when sending multiple files. * Handle (throw away) resource forks sent by Mac clients." I also changed all indents to tabs in ft.c. And split all the bstream stuff from rxqueue.c and put it in bstream.c. It really is a separate thing. Especially since it can be used for outgoing connections. Also, I was going to look over the whole patch tonight to make sure it's all good, but it's like 6000 lines, so, uh, I'll do it later. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

Anyone else want to be in here?
