Software News : SabreMSN 0.65 - avatar support improved

Display picture/avatar support has improved, but still needs work.

2010-01-27: Alpha 65
- When MSN clients try to establish a direct connection, Sabre will tell the other end
to transfer over the switchboard. Hopefully more avatars will display for people now.
It needs more work still though.
- Avatars are now downloaded automatically when people change them
- Multiline messages that dont end with an \n on each line (i.e. \r on Mac Messenger!)
are displayed correctly now
- Auto Un-Away is now optional/configurable.

To use the new notification system in AmigaOS4.1 Update #1, go into the Settings pulldown menu in SabreMSN, and tick "Display popups for online alerts and new messages". Save, then it will take effect immediately.

About notification; if your friend types a message with Turkish characters (windows-1254), these characters aren't displayed properly in small notification pop-up but the chars are correct in SabreMSN window. I tried passing Turkish chars to Ringhio with a small arexx script, it can display correctly. So Is SabreMSN passing wrong charset to Ringhio notification ? Is it possible for you to fix this ? Thanks in advance...
