SF Patch #1366481 from Michael Carlson
"The function gtk_smiley_tree_insert() in gtkimhtml.c is
using up (on my system) the most CPU of all the
functions in gaim whenever the preferences box is
opened (tested by opening the preferences box 50 times
and measuring with oprofile).
The function is called some 297 times each time the
prefs box is opened, and each time we call strlen() on
a (usually 3 or 4) character string to see if the
string is empty or not.
I've eliminated the unnecessary call to strlen by
checking the first element, and I've changed the while
{} loop to a do {} while loop, because since we return
if the string is empty at the beginning of the
function, the same check on the first iteration of the
loop is unnecessary.
I believe it's faster for every case, even if only by a
little bit."
I don't know how necessary this is, but it doesn't hurt and it doesn't negatively impact the readability of the code.
I also fixed an existing piece of code for which the compiler issued a warning.

This file describes how to compile and run gaim with dbus support. Hopefully, most of the steps from point 3 will soon be automated. 1. Make sure you have the latest version (0.34) of the dbus library installed, including glib bindings. http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/dbus 2. Compile gaim ./configure --enable-dbus make make install 3. Configure your dbus instalation for gaim A. Find your dbus session configuration file, usually /etc/dbus-1/session.conf B. In that file, find the <servicedir> section. This section contains the directory that stores files describing services, usually /usr/share/dbus-1/services C. Copy src/dbus-gaim.service to that directory D. Edit the dbus-gaim.service file you've just copied, and replace the path in the "Exec=" line with the path to your gaim executable. 4. Start Session DBUS if you haven't done it already eval `dbus-launch --session` export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID These commands will set the two above shell variables. These variables must be set before running any dbus-aware programs. Start gaim as usual. To communicate with it, use "gaim-send". When you execute gaim-send, the dbus system will automatically start a gaim process if one is not running already.
