5 Disregard the date there, this file is hideously out of date, it will
6 be fixed up in the next release.
8 Here's a list of things I may or may not get around to putting
11 This list is not in order of importance or any kind of order at all.
12 And just because something is on the list doesn't mean that it will
13 become part of EMchat.
15 Feel free to do any of these things and send a patch to
16 <emchat-devel@emchat.org>
20 ** Direct TCP, file transfer/chat.
22 Can't do this until (S)XEmacs has server sockets.
24 ** Pop-up/permanent window for entering long message.
26 ** Store offline messages and send them when online.
28 ** Security problem of `emchat-user-password' in init file.
32 ** Do something useful with the 'group' code.
34 Send message to multiple contacts etc etc.
36 ** Ignore that annoying spammer!
38 There are definitely times when you'd rather not hear what
39 someone has to say. Mwuahahah!
43 Imagine running an elisp defun whenever an EMchat message matching
44 a particular regular expression comes in. This functionality
45 will need to be documented carefully due to the security
46 implications, of course.
48 ** Externally triggered messages
50 biff meets EMchat. "Hey, you just got some email. You better
51 read it." Or maybe "The power is out and your UPS just kicked
52 on.". The sky is the limit.
56 Take advantage of XEmacs' PostgreSQL support for storing and
57 retrieving all kinds of useless data about your contacts.
