I’ve just made available a new version of away++, a python plugin for XChat2 IRC Client i wrote.

New Features:

• /awayall [away message]
  This command sets your status as away in all servers you are connected to. The away message is optional.
• /backall [nickname password]
  This command removes your away status in all servers you are connected to. It also identifies your nickname, if you pass your nickname password as an argument.

You can download the latest tarball through http://earruda.eti.br/files/away++_latest.tar.gz . Or accessing the development page: http://earruda.eti.br/blog/development/

For some time i tried to highlight the “@all” string in XChat2[0], an IRC client, but when the XChat2 highlight feature reads the “all” word, it highlights all messages, in all channels.

Fortunately, i found a python script that highlights defined strings, and it works great for me. The script name is hilight-phrase, you can find it at ctrl+d blog[1].

I’ve created a page named Development, where i’ll put some tools, scripts and softwares made by me, or in which i had a hand on.

To start that page, i put a plugin for XChat2, named Away++. It changes your nick to an away-nick when you set your status to away and changes your nick back and identifies it when you set your status to back.
