Description Iuri Fiedoruk 2006-07-21 21:33:55 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.3)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

In current 0.12.1 version of Kopete, you can set the away message without the need to change your status to away. Some protocols (as MSN for example) support this, showing away messages even when you aren't away.
My wish is that there is a way for setting throught dcop the away setting without changing the status to away.

This would be a welcome add for amarok scripts that could change the away message instead of the nickname.

Use

dcop kopete KopeteIface setAway "Foo" false

The last parameter specifies if you want to change to Away or not.
