[Kopete] Better Chatlogs?

Uhm, well, no offense, but the chatlog format sucks ._. Maybe in the next release it's possible to make chatlogs appear in the regular chat visual style and stuff? It's definitely doable. I just don't think > and < are that easy to read and stuff, and if I wanna read my logs or share them with friends, I can't really do that in a way it'll be easy to read.
Hope you consider this (:

Chat logs--style file

Hi, I've written a style file which formats Kopete chat logs nicely in a browser, and a shell script which automatically updates all chat logs to use this style file. The two files (kopete_history.xsl and log_styles.sh) should be attached to this message. Just put them in your home directory and run the shell script:

$ sh log_styles.sh

Then open any of the chat logs in your browser. For easy access, try bookmarking in the browser the directory where the logs are kept, http://~/.kde/share/apps/kopete/logs/.
yawar_amin has attached the following files:
  • log_styles.sh (299 Byte - 78 times downloaded - latest: Nov 14th 2010, 8:46pm)
  • kopete_history.xsl (2.24 kB - 77 times downloaded - latest: Nov 14th 2010, 8:47pm)

thank you, it works and it looks quite good. Plus the logs load faster as with kopete's viewer ;)

I guess there is no easy way to show the nicknames instead of the icq-numbers?

thanks again man!

New version of style file

Hi, thanks for trying it out. I've uploaded a new version of the style file to the same place, it should solve the problem you're facing. It checks whether the contact has a nick and uses that preferentially. Before it was just using the email address (ICQ no. in your case).

that's ultimate. perfect!

thanks again a thousand times!!

this really should be part of kopete as it makes reading logs so much easier! Having nicknames/e-mail addresses instead of the lousy ">" and "<" makes it fun, not hard work, hehe
