[edit] Status

Psi has the possibility to change status automatically, when the computer is idle. This feature platform dependant and it might not work because of various platform-related reasons.

Windows

* the idle detection on Windows 9x,Me is embedded in the idleui.dll library, coming with Psi.exe in the same folder

* some anti-virus software might detect by error the library as dangerous object, even removing it from the system - the library does not have any malicious behaviour embedded (we have been notified that this happens with some versions of McAffe Antivirus)

MacOS

* nobody reported missing functionality on this plaform

Linux

* you need the XScreenSaver extension

* most distributions have this, but you might not have it or have it disabled

Due to the increasing demand of new features, the developers have planned a rewrite for the Status System. The design document with the new vision can be found here.

[edit] Emoticons

Location: Psi Button > Options > Appearance > Emoticons

This is the page where you can the emoticons used by Psi in chats and messages.

• to enable emoticons, make sure you check 'Enable Emoticons' - this also enables Text Formatting.
• The list displayed here allows you to see the emoticons which will be used by Psi, by priority. What does that mean? Assuming you have 2 emoticon-sets mapping ":)" to 2 different images, when ":)" needs to be shown on the screen Psi will use the image in the top-most emoticon-set. If the first emoticon set does not have ":D" image for example, it will be looked in the following emoticon-sets and the first one found is displayed.
