[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 <tailor@pidgin.im>

--- STUFF FOR 0.10.1 RELEASE ---
	Execute Command on Buddy Pounce
	Redesign the Foreground/Background color options under preferences.
	Add ability to conversaton window to allow changing of foreground/
		background colours per conversation window. This is done,
		there just needs to be some way to actually change the
		values.
	Have a page in the prefs for the Applet
	The about window is very ugly.  I think this shall be fixed.  
		You know, I really like the gnome look to some apps
		but I dont want to tie gnome into gaim.  oh life sucks
		sometimes hehe.

	Syd is cool and gave all of these ideas:
		Have multiple tickers in the same window, one for buddies
			like it is now, one for who just came online/offline
			(scrolled faster possibly because that doesn't
			happen very often), etc.
		Have tooltips on the passing buddies on the ticker
		Have a stock ticker (a plugin could easily make use of
			GtkTicker)
		Have Alt access the menu in the buddy list, and ctl-char
			access items in those menus


	Maybe someday in the future gaim will be able to support multiple
		connections, so you can log on as 2+ names at once. Maybe.
