Some may already have noticed it. There was some teamwork recently to utilize the well known History++ plugin as a message history viewer inside the message window - tabSRMM in that case.

For a short while, History++ was faking the IEVIew API so that it was able to replace IEView as a message history viewer. But now, it has got its own API, so tabSRMM can finally implement a method to select one of 3 possible ways to display the message history:

• Default message log (richedit based, all the known features like templates and such)
• IEView (no need to say more, most people know it as it is one of the most popular plugins in the world of Miranda)
• History++ - the great history viewing plugin for Miranda has now become modular enough to be used outside the history window.

Following the tradition to make everything in tabSRMM as flexible as possible, these settings can be selected both globally and per contact. The global option is on the "Message Log" options page and is now a combo box allowing you to select one of the 3 options. Please note, that this combo box will only list plugins which are installed to avoid confusion. So the History++option is only available when History++ is installed and running. Read more...

Ghazan commited a big patch to tabsrmm. Basically, it is the same stuff which went into chat.dll, making most of the group chat API unicode safe.

This is a huge patch, and bugs are very likely to exist as of now. We are aware of it and will work them out over time. So, before installing a new tabSRMM build from SVN or a new nightly, you should backup your old DLL. Reports like "chat broken, doesn't work" will be silently ignored, detailed reports are always welcome, of course.

This only affects the unicode build of tabSRMM

These changes are effecive beginning with October, 4th 2006 (version number was increased to 1.1.0.10).
