Hi all,
First off, my compliments to everyone who has worked on Fire. Very useful
and excellent product.
Since I've been using Fire for a couple months now, I thought I'd dutifully
report some bugs that I've experienced and make some feature suggestions.
Here goes... (most of my friends and coworkers are on Yahoo, so a lot of
these will be pertinent to Yahoo Messenger)
Bugs:
1. URLs coming from a Yahoo Messenger client do not appear. I am guessing
this is related to the problem with colored text, as Yahoo Messenger does
change the color for URLs. Is this a fixable problem?
2. Most of the time when I first start Fire, not all of my Yahoo buddies
will be discovered to be online, even though they are. This seems to be a
problem I have with Proteus as well. On Fire at least, each buddy will
eventually show up (perhaps if they log off and then back in), or they will
all show up if I add a new buddy (or two).
3. (Not sure if this is a bug): I usually have Console running hidden, and
it seems that all messages received via Yahoo are output to console as well.
Seems there is an NSLog line that was never commented out. Here is the diff:
diff -r1.7 YahooCFunctions.m
135c135
< NSLog(@"Message = %s", pkt->msg);
---
> // NSLog(@"Message = %s", pkt->msg);
4. When getting a notification for new mail from Yahoo, there always seems
to be a second notification received immediately after I clear the
notification dialog. It doesn't matter if I click on "Read" or "Close."
Suggestions:
1. One nice thing about Yahoo Messenger is that you have the option of
turning off notification sounds for the active chat window. It'd be great if
this were put in as well. I put it in myself as a hack (I don't understand
objective-C very well, so I just made the most minimal changes I could
possibly make to get that functionality), but it'd be great if it were a
preference that I could set. Here's the diff for my hack:
diff -r1.103 ChatWindow.m
1338a1339,1341
> if ([window isKeyWindow] && [soundName isEqual:MSG_RECV]) {
> return;
> }
2. It seems that new chat windows (at least for buddies for which there is
no saved window information) always open up in the same spot. Any way to do
cascading for new windows (like how Internet Explorer always opens up new
windows a little lower and to the right of the previously opened window)?
3. How hard would it be to take ESC as a close window key (as opposed to
only Apple-W)?
Anyway, Fire's looking real good. Keep up the good work!
