Available messages are supported to aim 6 and higher, if you have classic, or 5, you can only see available messages in the away message area.

You'd need to edit the script and remove the symbol prefixes. You might be better off using the built-in iTunes scripts (look under Edit -> Insert Script).

Hope this helps!

Yes, by editing the script.

Did you quit and relaunch Adium?

No, it doesn't filter, and I don't feel that it's worth adding to the released version. However, here are the changes to add it to your copy.

Navigate to Home -> Library -> Application Support -> Adium 2.0 -> Scripts. Control-click on Now Playing In Adium.AdiumScripts and choose Show Package Contents. Enter Contents and then Resources and double-click on Now Playing.scpt to open it in Script Editor.

Scroll to the bottom and add the following two functions:

-----------------------------

on doFilter(theText)
set theText to my replace(theText, "poop", "p**p")
set theText to my replace(theText, "dog", "cat")
return theText
end doFilter

on replace(theText, oldString, newString)
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldString
set tempList to every text item of theText
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to newString
set theText to the tempList as string
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to ""
return theText
end replace

--------------------

In the doFilter function, you'll need to edit the line:
set theText to my replace(theText, "poop", "p**p")
to do the actual filtering you want done. Duplicate the line as many times as you need to create all your filters. Keep in mind that this is a lazy-ass filter and it is case sensitive, so poop and Poop must each have their own filter line. (Yeah, there are probably more efficient ways to do this, but like I said, lazy. :-)

Finally, scroll back toward the top and right above the line that says:

-- comment out the next line to skip truncate feature

add

set nom to my doFilter(nom)

If you want to filter artist name as well, add:

set art to my doFilter(art)

Quit and restart Adium and you should have a filter. Hope this helps!

duuuhhhh! editing the plist would do the trick. thanks anyways.

add yourself to your buddy list?

I need to know the same answer please

NEW SCRIPT
--------------------------------------------------------
-- comment out the next line to skip truncate feature
tell me to truncate(nom, art)
end if
else
set myMessage to not_listening_message
end if
end try
end tell

else
-- If iTunes isn't running, then display this message.

set myMessage to not_listening_message
end if

return (message_prefix as Unicode text) & myMessage

end substitute
-------------------------------------------------

3.Save and run it.

Never mind, got it working myself. Thanks for the script though!

PS. is there any way of writing a script that you can type into a message to force %_nowplaying to run? So that when a track changes you can make it change faster?

♫ is supposed to be displayed as the music note icon by the way.

Actually, nevermind. I'll just use Jabber instead. Atleast I can get the whole personal message and song playing to work on there.

Since nobody answered i tried to do it myself.

Here it is for anyone who needs it (i've never used applescript):

1- Search for set myMessage to (art & " - " & nom) (the "truncate" one)
2- Add [ & " (%_album) (%_year)"] between "nom" and ")". Should look like this -> set myMessage to (art & " - " & nom & " (%_album) (%_year)")

Result will be something like:
NOFX - You're Wrong (Never Trust A Hippie) (2006)



I could also simply put "%_artist - %_track (%_album) (%_year)" in my status, but it would look weird if iTunes was closed " - () ()". So my point was to use all this functions and also use the "QUIET" feature of the original script.

BTW the "game" variable is something I have in mine, so discard that.

Also, I didn't know the indents would not show up. :(

Try and read my above additions.
