Uhm yes I changed  a bit of code in the BMsnSBHandler class (and the 
MSNChatter class)...I changed to also parse the EF command and wrap the 
command part (I=italic, B=bold, U=underscore, S = Strikeout, and 
combinations of it) into the MSN_SEND_MESSAGE...hope that isn't a problem, 
I'll attach the new code... maybe it's also a better idea to change the 
insertIM(const char *fname, const char *im, rgb_color rgb, const char* 
effect) in MSNChatter to insertIM(BMessage *message) or isn't that possible, 
because of weird message things? In that we way don't have to pass all the 
parameters in the BMessage separately...

I know now that Bold and/or Italic work, the font is properly 
changed...major thanx to a friend of mine, who helped me testing this...he 
also offered to be a beta tester...as I said the other two (underscore and 
strikeout) aren't implemented by be...we can provide a work around for that, 
but that may be difficult to realise...we'll see about that...I'm also 
thinking of installing some windows fonts in beOS to implement the font 
handling code(if the font isn't found, change back to a beOS font)...btw 
there is also a lot of info in the msn messages about what kind of font 
class (times new roman like, arial like) the message uses, maybe we can use 
that as well...to select an appropriate font, when the font itself isn't 
selected....

Yesterday I also continued my work on parsing the icon prefs file...I'm 
making a StringTokenizer for that, and that piece of code, has some problems 
with it, hope I'll figure it out today though...

That would rock indeed!  Well then I suggest using the sourceforge 
webspace...have to learn some php then, so it can take some time before I 
have something decent...can send you the mockup of the page I flinged 
together last week...if you want (Simon already saw it)...then if we agree 
we can use that...

regards,

Tim
