# HG changeset patch # User Luke Schierer # Date 1176995214 0 # Node ID 4aedcb70cc07ee9e87b43a3b3c62f91e0ffe20db # Parent fde43bac6f235efc7b7de20fb27a62df956458ee remove some of the outdated todo stuff. most of the TODO file was handled as we worked on 2.0.0. Much of the .todo files was badly out of date, some of it completed, some of it no longer applies though not exactly completed, and other parts of it really rather debatable. For msn in particular I assume that the new msn code will addres much of it. for zephyr in particular, the bigger question than its .todo file is having a prpl distributed that we do not have a maintainer for. I left the jabber, oscar, and win32 .todo files. I am unsure which parts of them ought to be transfered to trac. references #157 diff -r fde43bac6f23 -r 4aedcb70cc07 .todo --- a/.todo Tue Apr 17 21:46:28 2007 +0000 +++ b/.todo Thu Apr 19 15:06:54 2007 +0000 @@ -2,173 +2,7 @@ Gaim TODO List - - UI stuff - - need to be able to copy/paste smilies - - done some time ago - - - - resizing text entry area below default doesn't work well. - - wysiwyg and changes from that time period fixed this - - - some people report being unable to shrink it at all - - - - copy grabs html as well as text. - - wysiwyg solved this - - - - kicking someone in #name-extension causes a kick to display in #name as well and vice-versa - - - SEARCH FUNCTION FOR LOG FILES - - current function only highlights every other entry (sf bug 980075) - - - - fix crash when someone writes just as you close the chat window. - - - Save buddy icon option does not work, it saves a screenname.icon file which is not openable. - - - status report w/out being on own list - - - option not to raise windows on event while away - - - make entry widget height preference a relative size, that is it doesn't change the overall height of the window. - - - buddy pounce stuff - - drop down list of buddies - - I think tab complete for the field solves this - - - - - blist does not resize correctly on some platforms. this does not seem to be an issue on linux. - - - better gtk2-ified icons: maybe a send icon? review the ones we're using now. do they make sense? - - - do not automatically resize windows that have been manually resized. - - is this fixed? - - - when a new tab is created - - I think this is solved now that tabs always display - - - - when a buddy icon is received - - - when an im image is received - - - - block buddy option from right click menu in blist - - - blist short cuts apparently not working - - - display status overlay for buddies on the blist that have been blocked - - - option to have input box scroll instead of line wrap. input box only. - - - Transparency for GtkIMHtml - - - - Prefs stuff - - make sure prefs save - - - move plugins out of prefs to their own dialog - - - preference to set logfile path.

Since it only applies to ICQ and Jabber (and actually, currently only Jabber, since icqlib doesn't handle away messages yet), there should be some way of indicating that it can do both without breaking the others. My suggestion is to put "/" at the end of the "state", and when that's there, have it be a menu with all of the custom messages, e.g. in Jabber it'd return "Away/" as one of the states, and you'd see "Away" with a menu of all the away messages you have. - - - - - - - - - - + WinGaim specific stuff @@ -187,142 +21,5 @@ Write a seperate program that implements multiple-users.
