Binary logs are no longer stored as a single message with a list of
strings and int64s ("body", "user_name", "user_id", "when"), but a
message with sub-messages (IM_MESSAGE_RECEIVED) verbatim saved.
This has the main benefit of preserving message formatting (coloring,
bold, italics, etc).
Chat messages can now be formatted with colors in addition to varying
faces with "color_start," "color_length," and "color" slots in
IM_MESSAGE_RECEIVED.
If the user disables an account, this saves it so that on any
subsequent start-ups, the account won't be connected until the user
explicitly re-enables it.
ProtocolSettings were reworked to allow for publicly loading/saving
settings from BMessages, rather than solely from BViews.
In addition, all program-side disabling, enabling, and toggling of
accounts has been consolidated into ProtocolManager. This makes life
easier for other parts of the program that have to do these things
anyway.
Ensures that an item in the chat list is always selected (as long as
there are items to be selected), and that an account's "buffer" (fake
conversation) is added immediately after connection, and removed
immediately after disconnection.
Now addons can format messages with new slots accepted by
IM_MESSAGE_RECEIVED: "face_start," "face_length," and "face".
The first two deal with the position of the face-change by character
offset in the string, and the last being the face flag affected.
Now, per each account, there is a read-only chat view associated with
it, accessible through its item in the conversations list. This can be
used to place system messages, MOTDs, insignificant errors, etc.
Protocols can send text to this buffer by specifying no "chat_id" in
an IM_MESSAGE_RECEIVED message.
