[mICQ] How to use the micq-script?

Yes & yes

I'm afraid that micq always displays the incomming message, and then
calls your script. So the best you could have is to see encrypted
message and then output of your script.

I'm not avare of this.

My micqrc contains:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
[Connection]
type remote auto
version 0
server remote-control

event icq_event.pl
[...]
----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Connection bit creates fifo queue

$ ls -l  ~/.micq/remote-control
prw------- 1 neuron neuron 0 2007-04-16 09:25 /home/neuron/.micq/remote-control

The "event" clausule specifies script which is to be called for each
event hapeening.


My icq_event.pl is simple:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl

open F, '>/home/neuron/log/icq.txt';
for (@ARGV) {
   print F "->$_\n";
}
close F;

if ($ARGV[4] eq 'msg') {
   system 'aplay /home/neuron/.micq/sound.wav &> /dev/null &';
}
----------------------------------------------------------------------

First part just dupms all arguments to a file, so that I can see what
was passed in. Basically debug code.
Second part sounds a 'ding' if someone sends me message.

Now part of my .procmailrc:

:0 ch
| ~/bin/oznam_mail.pl &> /dev/null

Calls script for every mail I get.

The script basically does:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
$PIPE="$ENV{'HOME'}/.micq/remote-control";

open F, ">$PIPE" or die "Can't open '$PIPE': $!\n";
print F "!echo -ne 'Incomming Mail:\\n";
print F "$subj\\n";
print F "$from\\n'";
print F "\n";
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm attaching the whole scritp, it decodes encoded mail headers so it's
a bit too long for pasting here.

Combining this two things you could get encrypted messages IMO.


Hope this helps
