A new script cron.py is now available. It can schedule jobs or message like system commands cron and at.

Two commands are provided by this script:

• /cron: schedule job like system command 'cron'
• /at: schedule job for only one execution, in near future, like system command 'at'.

You can get more help with /help cron and /help at.

You can setup some options with /set:

• /set plugins.var.python.cron.auto_reload on/off (default: on)
• /set plugins.var.python.cron.auto_save on/off (default: on)
• /set plugins.var.python.cron.filename "path" (default: "%h/cron.txt")
• /set plugins.var.python.cron.quiet_exec on/off (default: off)
• /set plugins.var.python.cron.quiet_load on/off (default: off)
• /set plugins.var.python.cron.quiet_save on/off (default: on)

Major changes were done in script API: data string was added to all callbacks. C plugin API is already ok (there is data pointer for callbacks).
Therefore, all scripts for development version are incompatible with this new version. All official scripts have been updated on plugins page.

This data string must be added after each callback function in arguments of functions. For example in python :

weechat.hook_command("go", "Quick jump to buffers", "", "", "", "go_cmd")
(...)
def go_cmd(buffer, args):

becomes:

weechat.hook_command("go", "Quick jump to buffers", "", "", "", "go_cmd", "")
(...)
def go_cmd(data, buffer, args):

A new script vdm.py is now available. With that script, you can read fmylife.com and viedemerde.fr websites in WeeChat, using command /vdm.
Help is available with /help vdm when script is loaded.

You can setup some options with /set:

• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.auto_switch on/off (default: on)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.blank_line on/off (default: on)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.color_number color (default: cyan)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.colors color1;color2;... (default: default;green;brown)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.lang fr/en (default: en)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.number_as_prefix on/off (default: on)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.reverse on/off (default: off)
• /set plugins.var.python.vdm.url url (default: http://api.betacie.com/view/%s?key=readonly&language=%s)
