[gaim-migrate @ 13418] sf patch #1235519, from Sadrul Habib Chowdhury This is a pretty big patch that makes Gaim correctly save and restore the current status (away/available, away message, available message, invisible, etc). The GaimGtkStatusBoxWidget thing I think defaults to "Available" every time its created, which overrides the setting that was saved to the XML file. So that still needs to be fixed before this will really work. Anyway, mad props to Sadrul for putting up with my requests on this patch committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

# A little shell script for communicating with gaim using dbus

METHOD_NAME=$1

if test -z "$METHOD_NAME" 
then
    cat <<EOF 
This program uses dbus to talk to gaim.  If the gaim is not running and
the dbus engine is set up correctly, a new instance of gaim will be started.

   Syntax: gaim-send method-name parameter1 parameter2 ..."

This shell script just invokes dbus-send, see man dbus-send for how 
to specify the parameters.  

Examples:

   gaim-send Ping 
   gaim-send Quit
   gaim-send GetBuddyList
   gaim-send GetBuddyProperty int32:5 string:alias
   gaim-send StartIMConversation int32:5

See src/dbus-services.xml for the list of supported operations.
