Can this script be part of your identity (appearing with your name, like MSN's plug-in for iTunes), or is it something you manually enter in a conversation?

it should work fine in your name, away message, profile... anywhere you can use scripts. because of the way it connects to Whedonesque every time you use it, you may see some lag because the script will be running nearly constantly. if that happens it's probably a good idea to take it out again. if anyone would be willing to put together a list of all the quotes from that site, I'd be much obliged - the script would run much faster.

Sorry to be so thick, but i'm kinda new to the script running. do i just put %whedon into my identity, or what? how do i get it into my identity? I'm stoked about it - cool script.

you can just type it into any chat, or put it in your alias, away message, etc. if you use the script in your alias you will just see the script name (%whedon) but other people will see the result (I'm not exactly quaking in my stylish yet affordable boots).

I'm totally new to all this, so just exactly what to I type and where to use this? I am running OSX Jaguar.

just type %whedon in any chat, or anywhere you put text that others can see - like away messages, aliases and the like.

I only get this error: "grrr argh, curl requests to whedonsque.com have been baned, this plugin is overloading our server."

This is kind of... dissappointing. Maybe you just need a better database of quotes to pull from. This is slow to load, and I really wish the quotes had character attributions.

Doesn't work anymore
