Just a small script i created some time ago to change your mood to what audacious is playing. No GUI, clean and simple.
Example:
music.png Derelict - Nowadays (Original_Mix)
(yeah, i know the music.png icon isn't showing under linux)

Usage:
Make sure you got "skype4py" installed (available as "python-skype" in the Debian repos) and dbus-python (python-dbus in Debian)
Click Here to get the script.
CODE
chmod 755 audacious4skype.py

Go to audacious "Preferences > Plugins > General" and activate "Song Change"
Now go to "Preferences > Song Change" and in the "Command to run when Audacious starts a new song" field type the full location of the script.
Example:
/home/nolan/audacious4skype.py

Yesterday I posted a fast reply. And today it is gone.
How is that possible?
It seems that it is of no use to ask for help.

Bluetooth notifications! I built a script that will send you a notification to your cellphone via bluetooth. That way, if your far away from your computer (like on a different floor) and someone calls you on skype, you'll get a notification and you'll know to go to your computer. yes.png
It works great for me but I've only tried it on a nokia, with ubuntu.

anyway, this is the script. just extract it and run it. It will ask you a few questions and then it will create a new script with the info. PAY ATTENTION. At the end of the script it will tell you what to do in skype to make it work!

I haven't done much debugging or anything so please feel free to contact me and tell me what you think. benheyn@gmail.com

I have placed the action handler python script in /usr/local/bin/ and have python dbus installed. Nonetheless, I can not call phone numbers from within firefox as they are not linked. I followed instructions at:

http://share.skype.com/sites/linux/2006/08...links_work.html

to no avail. I am using 2.1beta package on Jaunty 64-bit.

Can anyone help me get this to work?

Thanks.
