+Variables plugin for Miranda IM v0.2.2.0
+unregistered@users.sourceforge.net
+
+--- About ---
+
+This plugin doesn't add any functionality on itself. But other plugins
+can use it to format a string which contains variables. Since this
+plugin can  be quite complicated to use, please read this document
+carefully before reporting any problems.
+
+Many thanks to HeikoH and DeathDemon for their suggestions and help.
+
+--- Usage ---
+
+Variables requires Windows 2000 or higher, and the unicode version
+requires the unicode version of Miranda.
+
+The Variables plugin allows you to use special formatting of strings
+within plugins that process their strings using this plugin. Examples
+of such plugins are NewAwaySys, Tipper, SimpleAway and
+StartupStatus. Please refer to the documentation of the plugin whether
+or not Variables is supported. Usually, there is no special action
+needed to use a formatting string instead of a normal string.
+
+A formatting string consists of 'tokens', special keywords which are
+translated by the Variables plugin into some text. Popular use of
+Variables is to show the currently playing song in your away
+message. If your away message module (like NewAwaySys) supports the
+Variables plugin, you can enter a text like the following to show your
+current Winamp song in your away message: "Hi, I'm listening to
+%winampsong%.". In this example, the token '%winampsong%' will be
+translated by the Variables plugin into the current song. Please see
+the notes for more details.
+
+Such special keywords, or tokens, are there in two flavors. First,
+there are fields, the syntax for a field is %fieldname%, an example is
+the already shown %winampsong% field. A field takes no arguments. A
+but more advanced is the second flavor, functions. Functions are
+usually accessed by "?functionname(argument1,argument2,...)", a
+function can take zero or more arguments. An example of a function is
+"?add(1,1)", this function will, as you can guess, be replaced by the
+number "2".
+
+A complete list of tokens can be found by pressing "Help..." on the
+Plugins->Variables options screen.
+
+Next to the % and ? character, there are a few others which have a
+special meaning, these are:
+
+!function
+
+This will parse the function given the arguments, but the result will
+not be parsed again. Example: "Message waiting:
+!message(,first,rcvd,unread)". In case you use
+"?message(,first,rcvd,unread)" and the message would be "You should
+use the string %winampsong% to get the song.", the result could be
+"Message waiting: You should use the string DJ Mike Llama - Llama
+Whippin' Intro to get the song.".
+
+`string`
+This will not parse the given string, any function, field or special
+character in the string will shown in the result without being
+translated. Example: "Use `%mirandapath%` to show the installation
+path." It's usually a good idea to put any non-special keyword between
+` characters.
+
+#comment
+This will add a comment in the formatting string. Everything from the
+# character to the end of the line will be removed. Example:
+"%dbprofile% #this is a useless comment."
+
+The Variables plugin allows you to build much more complex formatting
+strings than the one shown above. Please refer to the "Additional
+Help" and "Notes" sections at the end of this document for more
+information.
+
+There are a few settings in the options dialog:
+
+[] Automatically strip "end of line" characters
+
+This will remove any CRLF or LF characters. You can insert them using
+the crlf function.
+
+[] Automatically strip white characters
+
+This will remove any white space. You can add white spaces by placing
+` characters around them (see above).
+
+[] Automatically strip all non-parsing characters
+
+This will remove any characters that don't have a special meaning
+(all characters except those shown above). Basically this means you
+have to put all text besides tokens and comments between ` characters
+(see above).
+
+[] Parse the following string at startup
+
+The input box below this option is not just for testing, you can
+choose to parse the string at startup to set your global variables
+using the put and puts functions (which aren't different in this
+case).  Also, you can created aliases using the alias function.
+
+[] Auto parse
+
+Normally the string is only parsed when you press the "Parse" button,
+check this to keep the parsed string updated every second.
+
+[Help...]
+
+Pressing this button shows up a list of available functions and
+fields.
+
+--- Additional Help ---
+
+As stated before, this plugin can be quite complicated to use, here
+follows some addition help for some of the complex functions.
+
+---
+if(x,y,z)
+---
+The Variables has several functions based on logics. The if function
+will show string y in case x evaluates to true, and z otherwise. The
+return values of the several logic functions can be found in the help
+dialog. Also, a string x is false in case an error occurs while
+parsing it.
+
+Example:
+!if(%winampsong%,`winamp is running`,`winamp is not running`)
+
+---
+cinfo(x,y)
+---
+x specifies the contact (see notes).
+
+y specifies the info you want to retrieve, the following values are
+possible:
+
+first, last, nick, cnick, email, city, state, country, phone,
+homepage, about, gender, age, firstlast, id, display, protocol,
+status, intip, extip, protoid
+
+From Miranda IM v0.4.3.0 Test Build #55, the following are also
+available:
+
+fax, cellular, timezone, mynotes, bday, bmonth, byear, street, zip,
+lang1, lang2, lang3, coname, codept, copos, costreet, cocity, costate,
+cozip, cocountry, cohomepage
+
+Example:
+!cinfo(<ICQ:12345678>,nick)
+
+---
+lsdate(x,y)
+lstime(x,y)
+lsstatus(x)
+---
+These functions require LastSeen or ContactsEx to be installed.
+
+---
+lsdate(x,y)
+cdate(x)
+---
+The format argument can be formatted using the following:
+
+d	Day of month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit
+        days.
+
+dd 	Day of month as digits with leading zero for single-digit
+        days.
+
+ddd 	Day of week as a three-letter abbreviation.
+
+dddd 	Day of week as its full name.
+
+M 	Month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit months.
+
+MM 	Month as digits with leading zero for single-digit months.
+
+MMM 	Month as a three-letter abbreviation.
+
+MMMM 	Month as its full name.
+
+y 	Year as last two digits, but with no leading zero for years
+        less than 10.
+
+yy 	Year as last two digits, but with leading zero for years less
+        than 10.
+
+yyyy 	Year represented by full four digits.
+
+gg 	Period/era string. This element is ignored if the date to be
+        formatted does not have an associated era or period string.
+
+---
+lstime(x,y)
+ctime(x)
+---
+The format parameter can be formatted using the following:
+
+h 	Hours with no leading zero for single-digit hours; 12-hour
+        clock.
+
+hh 	Hours with leading zero for single-digit hours; 12-hour
+        clock.
+
+H 	Hours with no leading zero for single-digit hours; 24-hour
+        clock.
+
+HH 	Hours with leading zero for single-digit hours; 24-hour
+        clock.
+
+m 	Minutes with no leading zero for single-digit minutes.
+
+mm 	Minutes with leading zero for single-digit minutes.
+
+s 	Seconds with no leading zero for single-digit seconds.
+
+ss 	Seconds with leading zero for single-digit seconds.
+
+t 	One character time-marker string, such as A or P.
+
+tt 	Multicharacter time-marker string, such as AM or PM.
+
+---
+subject
+---
+This field returns a string in the format <PROTOCOL:UNQIUEID>, the
+contact associated with this token depends on the plugin which uses it.
+
+---
+extratext
+---
+This field returns a string depending on the plugin which uses it.
+
+---
+get(x)
+put(x,y)
+puts(x,y)
+---
+Put and puts will store string y under name x. Puts will return
+nothing, while put returns the string stored. Get will retrieve the
+value stored earlier with put or puts.
+
+NOTE: The stored string is first parsed, this means calling for
+example !puts(time,!ctime()) and later !get(time) will always return
+the time at which puts was called. Use !alias(x,y) to store 'unparsed
+strings'.
+
+NOTE2: Strings stored using put and puts can always be accessed (they
+are shared amongst instances). So beware you don't modify a variable
+in two places (unless you want that to happen).
+
+---
+alias(x,y)
+---
+Stores an alias named x with the value y. The alias x can be used as a
+regular token. You can also override existing tokens using the alias
+function.
+
+Example:
+!alias(song(pl,st,pa,nr),!switch(?if(!and(%winampstate%,%winampsong%),%winampstate%,`Not Running`),`Playing`,pl,`Paused`,pa,`Stopped`,st,`Not Running`,nr))
+This line above will add a token "song" which takes 4 arguments. The
+first one is the string when Winamp is playing a song, the second when
+stopped, the third when paused and the fourth argument specifies the
+string when Winamp is not running. You can use it like this:
+
+?song(%winampsong%` is playing`,`just stopped listening to `%winampsong%,%winampsong%` <- paused`,`Winamp is not running`)
+
+---
+message(x,y,z,w)
+---
+Retrieves a message for contact x according to y,z and w.
+
+y = either "first" to retrieve the first message or "last" (default)
+to get the last one.
+
+z = either "sent" to retrieve a sent message or "rcvd" to get a
+received one.
+
+w = either "read" to get a message you already read, or "unread" to
+get one from the message queue. Only used when z = "rcvd".
+
+If an argument is not given, this function will retrieve the message
+according to the rest of the arguments. Some examples:
+
+!message(,`first`,`rcvd`,`unread`)
+  This is 'normal' operation, to get the first message in the message queue.
+
+!message(%subject%,`last`,`rcvd`,`unread`)
+  Get the last message you received from the contact %subject%, which
+  is in the message queue.
+
+!message(%subject%,`last`,,)
+  Get the last message from contact %subject%. This one could be sent,
+  received, read or unread.
+
+!message(,,,)
+  Get the last message Miranda processed.
+
+---
+for(w,x,y,z)
+---
+
+Generates a for-loop; w will be initialized, x specifies the condition
+on which y will be executed and z will be shown.
+
+Example:
+!for(!puts(i,0),!not(!strcmp(!get(i),3)),!puts(i,!add(!get(i),1)),i=!get(i)!crlf())
+
+--- Notes ---
+
+1)
+Whenever a functions requires a contact as an argument, you can
+specify it in two ways:
+
+-  Using a unique id (UIN for ICQ, email for MSN) or, a protocol id
+   followed by a unique id in the form <PROTOID:UNIQUEID>, for example
+   <MSN:miranda@hotmail.com> or <ICQ:123456789>.
+
+-  Using the contact function:
+---
+contact(x,y)
+---
+A contact will be searched which will have value x for its property y,
+y can be one of the following:
+
+first, last, nick, email, id, display
+
+Example:
+?contact(miranda@hotmail.com,email) or
+?contact(Miranda,nick).
+
+Contact will return either a unique contact according to the arguments
+or nothing if none or multiple contacts exists with the given
+property.  If a property holds for multiple contacts, you can select
+one of those  contacts by adding an extra argument z. This indicates
+which contact to use. The ?ccount function can be used to find out how
+many contacts  hold for a certain property. The following formatting
+string  demonstrates the use of ccount and contact with three
+arguments.
+
+Example:
+# get the number of contacts with the display name "Marley"
+!puts(count,!ccount(`Marley`,display))
+# loop through these contacts, for each of them, show the e-mail address
+!for(!puts(n,0),!not(!strcmp(!get(n),!get(count))),!puts(n,!add(!get(n),1)),!cinfo(!contact(`Marley`,`display`,!add(!get(n),1)),email))
+
+In case the z argument is used, y can be any property of the cinfo
+function. Z can be 'r' to get a random contact.
+
+2)
+The %winampsong% field will only retrieve a song for Winamp, for
+Foobar2000, I recommend using foo_text
+(http://members.lycos.co.uk/musicf/) and the txtfile function.
+
+3)
+The variables regexp_check and regexp_substr are only available if you
+have pcre.dll or pcre3.dll in your miranda directory (or system32).
+PCRE is available from the "external" folder in this package and/or
+from http://www.pcre.org/
+
+4)
+The variables amipvar and amipformat are only available if you have
+ac.dll in your miranda directory (or system32). ac.dll is available
+from the "external" folder in this package and/or from
+http://amip.tools-for.net/ (part of amip_sdk). You'll also need to
+install one of the AMIP servers from http://amip.tools-for.net/
+
+5)
+Variables v0.2.0.0 syntax is inspired by the TAGZ system used in
+Foobar2000, http://www.foobar2000.org/.
