[gaim-migrate @ 17779] I'm committing this to get it out of my tree... As mentioned on gaim-devel, this normalizes some stuff. Mark wants to standardize on "username" instead. For recognition purposes, I'd prefer that, but using "screen name" is potentially useful in that users might not enter their OS username. In any case, it's not a huge deal to me either way. I believe the consensus before was for "screen name", and barring a consensus to change, "screen name" is the status quo anyway, so I'm making things consistent. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

This program calls gaim API functions using DBus and prints the return value.
If you are not interested in the return value, use gaim-send-async.

Usage:

   $0 method-name type1:parameter1 type2:parameter2 ...

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   $0 GaimAccountsFindConnected string: string:prpl-jabber
   $0 GaimAccountsGetAll
   $0 GaimCoreQuit

Use dbus-viewer to get the list of supported functions and their parameters.
