The latest version of the plugin will always be on the awn-plugins svn repository. The awn-plugins project page should also be up-to-date most of the time, but I can't make sure this page will always be...

For those of you that are like me and don't want the gaim systray icon I'm making a plugin that should obsolete the use for the systray in gaim. The latest and greatest supports icon changing according to status and blinking when messages have been received.

This plugin isn't actively developed anymore, because of the change from gaim to pidgin. See the pidgin plugin page for the new plugin.

maybe it's time to design a new set of icons for this plugin, with different status appeared in the speech balloon beside the purple bird.

Anyone knows how to get a high-res icon of Pidgin?

malwkgad icon error 3 May 7 2007, 9:47 PM EDT by annafil

Hello, I use gaim 2 beta 5 (fc6 build) and I have installed the compiled version and activated it in the gaim pref panel.
Once in a while awn crashes, but I guess this is awn bug, but what I see as a bug is that when I start the app the icon is the normal one, but if a window pops up (for example automated message from the irc server) a new icon is created in awn and it takes the privileges to change upon change of the status/new messages. I consider this a bug because the main gaim icon is supposed to be changed on events.
I still don't find the plugin usable enough for everyday use, maybe a small-letter notice on the icon with the screenname of the buddy that has undread messages plus this status changing fnctionality will be better (like in adium). Anyway its just an idea:)
Great idea to expand the functionality of awn, I do not use the notification area plugin anyway and I really would love to see a stable functionality in the awn provided for gaim. Keep with the good work and thanks:)
