Works! Cool!

I tested it with the #emacs "buddy", cause currently irc is the only working protocol.

Latest push should have a working implmentation of the /alias command, with tab completion for same.

Let me know if it works: Once it does I'll make a release.

/alias buddy-name alias

/alias account-name buddy-name alias

Ok, here are a few snippets from the elim-debug buffer:

So you see, the aliases are only the UINs...

Also, please check the elim-debug buffer:
If you could extract the contents of an elim-blist-update-node
call for an ICQ buddy of the type `:buddy-node', that would be helpful. In particular, the "bnode-alias" and "contact-alias"
fields.

Hmm. It should show the aliases, I thought I'd changed that.
I'll see what I can do.

I use emacs 23, gidgin 2.5.6 and elim from git.

I added my ICQ account and basically it works. What's bad is that almost all buddies are only shown with their UID. Of course, I cannot map some long numbers to the persons behind them with about 80 contacts. ;-)

So it would be nice if

1. by default the buddies nickname would be displayed, and

2. the displayed name was editable. I prefer full
names, at least for business contacts.

When I click on a buddy and select "get info" from the menu, informations like nickname (and sometimes first-/lastname) are correctly shown, so at least the informations for 1. can be retrieved right now.

Anyway, thanks a lot for this nice tool!
