Product Description:

An application to dynamically update the status in iChat. The default script queries iTunes to see the currently playing song and puts that as the iChat status. Users could customize with scripts to take availability information from iCal or other sources.

What's new in this version:

  • If (#) starts a message (from a script), the status message is not changed. This can be used to leave the status alone, for example in the iTunes script when iTunes is turned off. Make the change yourself.
  • Suffixes and prefixes were not always appended/prepended to the string
  • Newlines were not stripped from the beginning and end of script output
  • Clarified that the minimum refresh interval is still 5 seconds and that the maximum is 5 minutes...
  • Modified the SETI@Home script to allow for better configuration and several CPU's
  • Added a script to show the number of junk mail in Mail
  • Remove folders from the list of selectable scripts. Selecting a folder resulted in the program hanging in 1.2.0

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.3
  • Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

iChatStatus ReviewGood, but needs work - Version: 1.2.1, 2/17/2005 09:45PM PST

This is a great app, but it takes too much work to go in and add custom messages or turn iChatStatus on/off. My biggest complaint is that it cuts off my status message after 15 characters or so. I changed the script myself to put the song title first, but most of the time the artist name is cut off. This seems like a really dumb problem to have in a "1.2" product. SO fix that and you'll have a killer app on your hands.
