- fixed the batch file yet again (uses %APPDATA% now which is common to both XP and Vista)

- fixed a bug with the batch file under XP

- current as of 3/18/09
- created 1 batch file that works on both XP and Vista/Win7 via the %ALLUSERSPROFILE% environment variable (this also means that the batch file no longer has to be run on the same drive letter as where Digsby is installed)

I wrote my own packaging solution in Python. I was previously downloading the Gaim SA emote package from http://sa.tweek.us/emots/ and modifying it manually to fit Digsby, but it didn't seem right. The package has way more emoticons than SA actually has (SA has 373, but the SA emoticon site has 520). I figured I'd write my own package manager.

My solution checks to see if there is an update, and if there is, it'll automatically download all the emoticons, create the emoticons.txt file, and then package the whole thing up into a zip file with a file name like SA-emotes-[date].zip. The whole process is completely automated. All I have to do is hit run and then upload the file here.

If you want the Python source code, feel free to ask. It's my first real Python program, and it'd probably be useful to a fellow Python newbie since it demonstrates many of the language's features (regex, lists, dictionaries, downloading from the web, crypto, compression, file I/O, etc).

- fixed typo (emots becomes emotes)

- updated emots to 8/27/08 release
- changed archive type to zip for more compatibility
- changed file name pattern to easily distinguish between revisions

First version. It includes the SA emoticons dated 7/15/08. 2 batch files are included to automate backing up old emoticons and installing the new ones.
