Rightful question, as the dialog title confuses things. The ID is your own ID, and it's supposed to come in the format username@domain, that identifies both your username and the XMPP server to connect to. The Connect, Disconnect, and Availability Combo Box are used to control the chat and your own presence, so they are not actually related to buddies. I probably have to rename the dialog from "LyX Buddies" to "LyX Chat" or pls advise on a proper name. It's very inspired to the Skype main window. And perhaps adding a framebox around the actual buddies widgetlist, with a title like buddies or friends. > And if I try to connect, which password to use? in ID, you'd use "lyxtestu...@jabber.ccc.de", in password you'd use "secret". > That of the buddy I hardly can know, so it should be mine, but how does lyx > know > my id? LyX doesn't know that, you tell LyX your own ID, then LyX stores it into .lyxrc as "\user_chat_id lyxtestu...@jabber.ccc.de", and next time you use the chat it will fill automatically the ID for you. > I am confused. Hope the above clarifies, thx for the feedback. T.
