| 1 | QIP decoder for Pidgin\r |
| 2 | ----------------------\r |
| 3 | \r |
| 4 | Installation and configuration\r |
| 5 | ==============================\r |
| 6 | Copy qip-decoder.dll or qip-decoder.so to pidgin plugins directory on Windows,\r |
| 7 | or to /usr/lib/purple-2 directory on Linux.\r |
| 8 | In plugin settings Tools/Plugins (Ctrl+U) enable the QIP Decoder plugin.\r |
| 9 | \r |
| 10 | Version 1.3 allows to set codepage independently for each one contact.\r |
| 11 | For this to work, you must create file qips.xml in\r |
| 12 | C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application data\.purple directory on Windows,\r |
| 13 | or in ~/.purple on Linux.\r |
| 14 | \r |
| 15 | Example: Most of your contacts have QIP and use codepage # 1250. Howewer, your\r |
| 16 | contact 111222333 has QIP and is using codepage # 1252. Next contact 222333444\r |
| 17 | has Pidgin and writes in Russian (it corresponds to the codepage # 1251).\r |
| 18 | This contact requires disabling the QIP Decoder, which would corrupt cyrillic by\r |
| 19 | its operation.\r |
| 20 | \r |
| 21 | <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>\r |
| 22 | <qips>\r |

| 25 | <qip uin='222333444' enabled='0' />\r |
