Does it run on OS4? Do you plan a native version?

Thanks.

Well ;) You wouldn't be asking that question if you saw what it's coded in, hehe..

I'm primitive in my knowledge of programming languages ;)

Well.. I can do screenshots if it's necessary.. Remember micq? Like that..

Console client..

Unless you're running it in IRCd mode, well then the IRC client is the GUI.

@MickJT

I just downloaded the package, and it looks alright. Now it just needs a cool looking GUI :-) The docs are a bit incomplete though; I had to download 3 additional archives in order to get it running, but that's minor problems.

Filetransfer seems to work, but I can't get files through, but I'm 99% sure that it is because of a badly configed router.

Keep up the good work, I hope there will be updates for your cool proggy.

Uh, the docs are incomplete!?

The requirements section at the bottom of the .readme should tell you everything you need to have.

Let me know if i've missed anything.. As for receiving files.. Yes, bad router, blame it on the router, lol ;)

For file transfers, you connect to the sender.

Normally routers wouldn't affect outbound connections?

[Edit] Make sure the *sender* doesn't have any firewall turned on.

@Gerbinist

Thank you.. I was half expecting to be flamed for it being written in arexx, and no GUI, etc.. etc..

I assume you got file transfer going ok both ways?

Gonna check that in a sec. Was first testing stuff like add user into specific groups etc. That was acting a bit funny last time i used it. Also the DETAILS command works good again here.

I'll let you know about the filetransfer.

Hey MickJT!!! Good to hear you are still working on AmiMSN, i was using it for a long time.
I hope you remember me from RXDraughts betatesting time ;-)

Why don't you create a website (very basic is ok, i just want your stuff there) and put up all your tools to there? ;-)

Also another question: why don't you try RXMui by Alfonso Rainieri @ http://alfie.altervista.org ? It still would be Rexx and would have a beautiful looking GUI!

And AmiMSN is done in Rexx so it's ALREADY OS4 compatible! :-D

AWNPipe and RXMui is like learning a new language.. I tried mucking around with RexxMUI some years back and had trouble.. but perhaps now I could figure it out.

I think RexxMUI has asynchronous functions too.. Which of course is NEEDED.

I started AmiMSN thinking I could do it with AWNPipe, but then found out that it's not asynchronous and had to turn it into a console client with an IRCd mode ;)

As for the website.. I had none until 2 hours ago ;) It'll get better..

[Edit: CaptainHIT doesn't ring a bell.. Any other names?]
[Edit2: Hang on I was thinking of MUIRexx not RXMUI. I'll have a look at it]

Doh, doesn't ring a bell? :-(
Maybe because you don't join Amiga Overmind IRC channel anymore. :-)

As for RxMUI, i hope it'll help you doing stuff much better and nicely. ;-)

I've tried AmiMSN just now, i get the same problems as with the older version. It looses connection to the server just after i log in. :-(

Here's the output:

Connecting to messenger.hotmail.com on port 1863, please wait..
Connected, logging in..

Received transfer request..
Closed current connection.

Connecting to 207.46.106.137 on port 1863, please wait..
Connected, logging in..

Authorizing at loginnet.passport.com, please wait..
Ticket obtained, doing final stage of login..

You successfully logged in at 13/12/2004 19:23:54 GMT
Your IP is *.*.*.*
Lost connection with 207.46.106.137

Any hints?
