3 # This file is called for every message received by libpurple clients (pidgin,finch,...)
4 # - You can try to rewrite this script in PERL or C for better performance (or different platform) - let me know
5 # - On M$ Windows answerscripts.exe from libpurple directory will be called instead of this script
7 # Maybe you will want to add more hooks for receiving messages, so i've made following script
8 # - It just executes all +x files in answerscripts.d directory so you should do your magic there
9 # - To disable some of those scripts simply use: chmod -x ./script
10 # - There is some basic structure, which means that all scripts should start their names with two-digit number
11 # - Files are executed in order specified by those numbers and some numbers have special meanings:
12 # - AB?!_ scripts without numbers are NOT executed!
13 # - 00 executed immediately, zero or single line output (parallel async processing)
14 # - 01-48 executed immediately, multiline output (serial processing)
15 # - 49 delay script (adds random delay to emulate human factor)
16 # - 50 executed after delay, zero or single line output (parallel async processing)
17 # - 51-79 executed after delay, multiline output (serial processing)
18 # - 80-99 reserved for future
20 #legacy support, please do NOT use PURPLE_* variables in new scripts,
21 #this will be removed in future releases:
22 export PURPLE_FROM
="$ANSW_FROM"
23 export PURPLE_MSG
="$ANSW_MSG"
25 #this may be modified to use run-parts from coreutils in future (can't get it to work):
27 dir
="$(dirname "$0")"; cd "$dir" #chdir to ~/.purple/ or similar
28 dir
="${dir}/answerscripts.d"
29 if test -d "$dir"; then
32 #sleep at 49 (this can be replaced by 49-delay.sh, but this should be faster)
34 sleep $
[ 2 + ($RANDOM % 8) ]; #2-9 seconds of sleep
