Finch plugin - send "Please authorize me!" message automatically!

Hi there,


i'm writing a little perl script for finch. I want it to send the
"Please authorize me!" messages automatically. I add a buddy like
this:

$buddy = Purple::BuddyList::Buddy::new($account, $bud, $bud);
Purple::BuddyList::add_buddy($buddy, undef, $proto, $proto);
Purple::Account::add_buddy($account, $buddy);

On MSN, there is this "Please authorize me!" dialog popping up, which
I don't want. I want finch/the script to automatically send the
authorization message without first opening that dialog window at all.
I searched through the Perl API but couldn't find any appropriate
function that could catch that window, click "OK" and then close it. I
suppose i have to hack the .c source of finch instead. As I don't know
much C, it'd be awesome if someone could help me rewriting the source
so the autorization process becomes automatic.


Thanks alot in advance!
Mowsen

Assuming that dialog is done the normal way you want to listen for (and
respond to) the account-authorization-requested signal. See the
documentation for more specific information.

I'm pretty sure mowsen is referring to MSN's (recently-added, I think)
use of purple_request_input() in msn_add_buddy(). That is, when you try
to add a contact on MSN, the prpl throws up a dialog box in your face
that you have to hit "okay" on before it actually does anything (or hit
"cancel" if you decided against it).

account-authorization-requested is for incoming auth requests.
