Export directory
The path your messages will be exported to.
You can write a complete path or you can use %dbpath% which is the
ProfileDir= from your mirandaboot.ini.
You can also use all the variables ( %..% ) from Default File.
The "Default File" or the file from "User list" will be joined together
with the "Export directory" to form the complete file path.
Default: %dbpath%\MsgExport\
Browse
This will open a "Browse for a folder" where you can select the
Export directory.
see Export directory for details.
Default File
This sets the default file name which will be used if you do not
specify another on in the User list.
You can use
%nick% Nick you are received from or sending to.
%UIN% UIN you are received from or sending to.
%group% The group you have put the user in.
%e-mail% The users E-mail address.
%protocol% The protocol which the user is using.
%identifier% This is a protocol specific variable.
If it is an ICQ user it will be UIN.
If it is a MSN user it will be e-mail.
If it is a Jabber user Jabber ID is used.
When %UIN% or %e-mail% can nor be found %nick% is used.
The following variables do not cause the file name change notification
%year% The current year as a 4 digit number
%month% The current month as a 2 digit number
%day% The current day as a 2 digit number
%hour% The current day as a 2 digit number
Default: %nick%.txt
Max column width
This is the maximum line width that will be written to the file.
If you receive a message which has a longer line the line will
be broken up in 2 or more lines.
Default: 80
Time format
Here you can set the format of the time column in the export file.
The time column is the one after the user.
You can use:
t Time without seconds, e.g. hh:mm
s Time with seconds, e.g. hh:mm:ss
m Time without minutes, e.g. hh
d Short date, e.g. dd/mm/yyyy
D Long date, e.g. d mmmm yyyy
If you write any other characters they will simply be copied over.
So you may use "d t :" if you like to add a ":" before the message.
Default: "d s"
Replace miranda history
This option allows you to make the msg_export File Viewer you default
miranda history viewer. If you do not set this option msg_export will
create a new menu item to view the exported text file.
Default: Not checked
Use internal viewer
If you set this option msg_export will use its own File Viewer to
open the history file's. If you do not set it it will use the program
you have associated with *.txt files
Default: Checked
External file viewer
Here you can set the program you which to use to view your history files
If you set the path to en empty string the explorer default will be
used, this is just like double clicking the file in your explorer.
The program that you choose will be lunched with the file as the first
parameter.
Default:
Use UTF8 in new files
This option allows you to select the file format you wish message export
to use. When this option is enabled new files created will use Unicode
Transformation Format 8. When used with the Unicode version of Miranda
you can store Unicode in the text files.
When the option is not enabled files are stored in ANSI format.
UTF8 file format allows you to move the file to a PC with a different
code page and the text will still be displayed right.
Message export always read what format a file is before exporting and
will use the same format again. To convert an existing file to use UTF8
you can open it in Notepad and save it as UTF8.
Append extra new line
If this option is checked every message exported will have en extra new
line between them.
Default: Checked
Use << and >>
If this option is checked << and >> will be used instead of "your nick"
and "receiver nick" in the exported format.
Default: Not checked
User list
This is a list of your users.
Here you can set which file you would like to export to.
If you do not set any file the default <Nick>.txt will be used.
If you remove the check in the checkbox no export will be made.
Auto filename
This will try to find accounts in your user list which is the same
person.
Some people have multiply accounts on different networks or one at
work (nick@work) and one at home (nick).
Normally these two accounts would become 2 different files.
If you set the (nick@work) to use the (nick) file, events from both
accounts will be written to the same file, creating a single file with
all your message history from that person.
It will not replace any filenames that is already set!
Clear all
This will clear all the file's you have entered in the User list.
Export all history
This will export all your history from the database.
You will only need to activate this function after you have installed
this plugin or if you change the export directory or format.
Note that all events will simply be added to the current files even if
the event is already in the file.
Important !
Exported events will be sorted according to the time you received them,
therefore the order may NOT be the same as when you look in the
history in Miranda.
The history in Miranda may be in incorrect order if the original
messages come from the AOL's ICQ. This is my experience.
When filename changes
This sets the action that msg_export will take when it detects that a
file has been renamed. You can choose between
-Prompt for action: This will show a dialog every time
-Rename file: This will automatically rename the file every time
-Do nothing: This will ignore the event, resulting in multiply files
Default: Prompt for action
When user is deleted
This sets the action that msg_export will take when it detects that a
user has been deleted and that no other user is using the file the
deleted user was writing to. You can choose between
-Prompt for action: This will show a dialog every time.
-Delete file: This will automatically delete the file.
-Do nothing: This will ignore the event, resulting in an unused file.
Default: Prompt for action
Export Protocols
This is a list of your protocols.
If you remove the check in the checkbox no export will be made for that
protocol.
