01:41:45 <pa_5740> How do I stop Pidgin from connecting with all the entries on my buddy list?
01:44:36 <pa_5740> Gizmokid2005: Hello?
01:44:50 <Gizmokid2005> pa_5740: you mean all the accounts?
01:45:05 <pa_5740> Yes.
01:45:10 <Gizmokid2005> you can disable them one at a time in the account manager
01:45:28 <Gizmokid2005> or you can specify the "-n" flag on launch to startup with all accounts offline
01:46:00 <pa_5740> I should have said previously, "How do I stop Pidgin from connecting with all the entries on my buddy list at startup?" Sorry.
01:49:09 <pa_5740> Gizmokid2005: When you mean "to startup with all accounts offline", do you mean my status is set to offline?
01:49:44 <Gizmokid2005> your question doesn't make sense
01:50:02 <Gizmokid2005> Yes, that's what I mean, it'll take all the current active accounts and set their status as offline
01:50:06 <Gizmokid2005> as in not connected
01:50:49 <pa_5740> Let me put it this way, I'd like to have it start up with all of the accounts offline and then I just start up the ones I want to.
01:51:16 <pa_5740> Is that what you mean? Sorry for the confusion.
01:51:20 <Gizmokid2005> then you want to manually disable all the accounts and only enable the accounts you want that session
01:52:02 <pa_5740> Okay. Is there anything else I should know?
01:52:05 <Gizmokid2005> pa_5740: at the same time, you can set your "Status at startup" preference to be "offline"
01:52:24 <Gizmokid2005> and then use the "Mystatusbox" plugin to enable the accounts you want
01:52:31 <Gizmokid2005> that may be the easier way to do it.
01:53:13 <pa_5740> Alright, I'll have to look into that. Thanks for your help with this!
01:53:17 <Gizmokid2005> no problem

11:38:32 <ChrisMorgan> Somewhat. At the moment, only fixing bugs and cleaning up code.
11:38:42 <shanet> OK. Thanks
11:39:04 <shanet> and it's all open source?
11:39:34 <shanet> (like most thgings on PA)
11:40:18 <ChrisMorgan> Of course.
11:40:41 <shanet> Ok. Thanks. It's just that I have found something which has made me wonder.
11:40:59 <shanet> Something about make sure you have the un-modified installer?
11:41:12 <shanet> I think it was in the NSIS scripting?
11:42:37 <shanet> Also, I was looking at the PAL manual. I found somewhere that wildcards are not supported.
11:42:53 <shanet> Are you going to include support for wildcards any time soon?
11:43:27 <shanet> Or is it something that is extremely hard to achieve
11:44:46 <ChrisMorgan> It's something that just waits till I get round to working out how it's best to implement it.

11:45:16 <Zibbulon> hi
11:45:47 <Zibbulon> can u tell me where i can propose an open source's application for Portable Apps ?
11:45:53 <shanet> OK thanks. I'm just waiting up thats all. Hope it didnt read bad :P
11:45:57 <ChrisMorgan> Zibbulon: in the Request Apps forum.
11:46:09 <Zibbulon> thanks u man !!! have a good day
11:46:14 <ChrisMorgan> Also, search before posting, as it may have been discussed already, or there may even be a test version around.
11:46:57 * Zibbulon would like to help portable apps :)
11:47:27 *** Zibbulon has quit (Client Quit)
11:49:40 <shanet> ChrisMorgan: Do you know NSIS?
11:49:45 <ChrisMorgan> Absolutely.
11:50:45 <shanet> Cool. I have found a .chm file in my UnicodeNSISPortable program directory. Is this where you learned it?
11:51:27 <ChrisMorgan> That's the user manual, which is a good way of learning.
11:52:11 <shanet> OK. Just wondering how you learned. I'm looking into it and want to know where I can learn it?
11:53:43 *** Usbtastic has parted #portableapps (None)
11:58:55 <ChrisMorgan> I learned a lot from just using it. The user manual is good for filling in details of precisely what commands do, but actual code tends to be a more useful way of learning a language after you've got the basic syntax, I find.
12:16:09 <shanet> ChrisMorgan: Do you know any other languages?
12:16:36 <ChrisMorgan> PHP and Python. And AutoHotkey too.
12:17:00 <ChrisMorgan> S'pose you should also count Javascript (and HTML/CSS?). And some Java too.
12:17:07 <ChrisMorgan> But no C/C++.
12:17:33 <shanet> I'm learning C++ at the moment
12:17:54 <shanet> and will be learning PHP at the end of the year
12:18:12 <shanet> is PHP easy to pick up? (like HTML)?
12:18:18 <shanet> i know HTML as well
12:19:12 <ChrisMorgan> Learn Python instead! It's /ever/ so much better than PHP. What's more, for web development, then you get Django.
12:21:17 <shanet> I have no choice in the matter. I have to learn it as part of a computer science course in school
12:24:26 <shanet> \away
12:24:35 <shanet> oops... sorry

20:25:38 <pa_5740> When all the irc channels on my Buddies list connect, I just get this "(3:20:17 PM) frigg: Received CTCP 'VERSION' (to example from frigg)" in a tab called frigg. Anyone know why? Just to clarify, it's when I change the status for a account that the chat is linked from "Offline" to "Available" that this happens. When I connect to it the way I usually do it, everything's fine.

20:39:37 <pa_5740> Gizmokid2005: Are you there?
20:42:08 <SergentSiler> frig is one of freenode's bots, the 'CTCP VERSION' was an automatic probe by the network to see if you were a client, clone of a client, or bot
20:44:56 <pa_5740> SergentSiler: Okay, but how do I stop it from connecting to that every time I set my status to Available? Not that it's wrecking my world or anything like that, but I wouldn't mind not having to to close all of the tabs that show up when it does that.

20:46:12 <SergentSiler> unfortunately every time a user connects, the user is probed, there is no way to disable it. and i assume when you set your status to away it disconnects you so it reconnects when you set it to available
20:50:28 <pa_5740> SergentSiler: Yes, that is the case, although I set my status to "Offline", not "Away". I guess I'll just have to keep closing the tabs every time it does that, unless you have an idea on how I can remedy that.
20:50:52 <SergentSiler> unfortunately i do not, sorry
20:51:18 <pa_5740> SergentSiler: Okay, thanks for your help!
