Plus.py - Little patch to get flat color on shaded nicks instead of code [c=..]..[/c=..]

[anonymous]

Hi I changed Plus.py in a way that shaded nicks gets colored with the first color (the one in the opening code [c=xx]) instead of having the code displayed without any colorization.

The patch is simple, I just edited the regex at the end of each of this line adding a ".*" to make the regex catch any character in closing code between "and ""

colorCodesHex = re.compile('[[cC]=#([0-9A-Fa-f]{6})](.*?)[/[cC].*]')
colorCodesCode = re.compile('[[cC]=([0-9]{1,2})](.*?)[/[cC].*]')

Same should be done for [a=X]../a=X

Yes you are right.. but background codes don't work for me, I don't know why.. i just see [a=x]... so I didn't write that two lines in my patch

strange... well I don't know much about MSN Plus.. I'd love to know how the gradients in MSN look like...

I found this screenshot on google so you can see here ;) Look at "hely commentate il mio blog"...

or did you mean background gradients?

anyway it's not a real gradient, every character is rendered in a flat different color... if you have a gradient from red to black of a nick with just 3 characters, you will see the first character in red, the last in black, and the middle in a dark-red color. And the same happens with background gradients.

I already knew about that pseudo-gradients... Would be cool to get that working in plus.py :]

alencool got gradients working in LABELS (where you write your nick, personal status... hidden option) while alen is busy if someone can extend the same code in the whole userlist it won't be bad.. :)
