Hi, There are two features I've been missing / would like to have in ICQ, but I havn't found any implementation with either... So I thought I bring this up, maybe somebody knows one, or gets an idea for implementing one :)
1. The Windows client allow for a pseudo chat like view of the messages exchanged with somebody and if your counterpary sends several messages in short (or long) time they will automatically appear on the top half of the window. In all (working) Linux client I've seen you need to press the next message button if a new message arives. This is a bit inconvenient as I don't always notice them at first and may be replying to only part of the message :( 2. I have only relatively few friends on my contact list, so it would be very nice if it could somehow be completely integrated into the Gnome panel. Maybe similar to the taskview applet or something like that... That way there would be no need to open up the separate ICQ window to see the status of a couple of peole at a glane and to be able to quickly start conversations with them or send files etc... For me a panel applet woulf be an ideal place for it. Unfortunatelly allthough some clients (GnomeICU etc.) have a panel applet they only display a very small summary number and don't allow much directly beside changing my status quickly... Does anybody think that the above features would be usefull? Or maybe even know a version that supports something like that? Many thanks for your help in advance! best regards, Balazs
