Various perl warning fixes as well as real fixes to gconstpointer functions SvPV, et al. take a char*, whereas the cipher and base16/64 encoding functions return unsigned char*s, so cast away warnings about those distinctions. get_image_extension and get_image_filename take a (char *, len) as arguments, but the generated glue code wasn't interepreting the data as a giant array. I think purple_imgstore_get_data is also broken, but is not fixed.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go

"Related Pages" section.
