Some of you may of heard of Screenshot Sender, most likely version 3 by Dempsey. It was probably the second most popular plugin for Messenger Plus! for a few years now, due to its vast amount of useful features. The program enabled you to take print screens of your messenger windows, desktop or even someone's webcam from a touch of a button and send the screenshot to your contact or save it to a directory of your choice. It was very helpful and easy to use, I simply loved it.
Over time Matty joined the project and started work on a new update to the plugin. It was going well, I mean really well, new features, better code, the works. Then Messenger Plus! Live scripts were introduced and because he and Dempsey were beta testers, they started working on Screenshot Sender 4, in a form of a script. Matty is probably the main coder of the project at the moment, Dempsey is far too busy with other things, however progress on the project is still improving ...
Screenshot Sender 4 will be entirely coded in Jscript, to show how powerful Plus! scripting can be. It maybe harder and take longer, but the end result will be great. I asked Matty a few questions about the project and he told me some interesting stuff:
For the first release there wont be much as it takes awhile to re-code a project, as you have previously seen from Messenger Plus! Live. However eventually most of the features will be added back at one point or another.
For now the ones I/we will work most on are Capturing of active windows, full screen, uploading screenshots once they have been saved, using hotkeys to capture windows and send them to all available contacts (that are online), selecting from contacts in a conversation to send the screenshot too.
Release dates and betas have yet to be discussed we don't want to get too ahead of ourselves. But as previously done with prior versions which have been released to the public we just may. Also I am going to probably add a custom updater never before seen in Plus! Scripts, I hope peoples reaction to it is a good one, lets say every file has the potential of being updated without having to re-download an entire Plus! Script Pack.
