Does anyone know how to change the default away message. I gave up on figureing it out!

cheers

Just type your message after you typed "/away" in the main chat.

Cheers

Thanks for your reply but that is not what I meant. :oops:

OK ... what I meant is how do you change the default dc++ away message so that when you just type /AWAY it shows your own message instead the default one.

By either compiling your own version, using a modified client or just editing the DCPlusPlus.exe

I was afraid that recompiling was the only way to do it.
I will try it ... thanks.

Can a simple way (ie. through the settings panel) to change the default away message be added in the future? I cringe every time I see it.... "I might answer you later if you're lucky". Sort of seems juvenile. :roll:

It is in Settings/Appearance/Default away message
