  • 8.16.07 MoodSwing 4 posted in Geekery

    Okay, MoodSwing 4 is ready. I think I’ve fixed the Facebook problems. Facebook changed their authentication procedure on the SSL version of the login page, probably to stop scripts like this. The only way in now is through http, which means your password is sent in plain text. You’ll have to be the judge as to whether that’s worth the risk. I’ve also fixed a bug with Adium where trying to go from Offline status to anything else wouldn’t work. I’ve added some features as described on the download page, and have once again rewritten the preference storage method. I think I’m settled on that part now, but if you’re a current user, I’m afraid you’ll have to enter your passwords one more time. The preferences are all consolidated in one file now. Lastly, I’ve separated the config section into a plain text file that can be put into the Actions folder and, if it exists, will override the defaults in the script, providing a handy way to edit the template defaults without the hassles of loading Script Editor and all the related apps. Check it out at the download page.
