Hi Everybody,
I was wondering what language AIM uses. After seeing the

Quote:

aim:goaway?message=(whatever message)

I was wondering what else you could do to people using "links" such as this so i need to know what language this is. Does anybody know what it is? Or does anyone know of a site explaining some of it?

Its not really a language, its a little system hook that AIM installs that can catch various commands. Honestly, there really aren't many that they implemented. I mean, you can do the bare basics, but thats it.

If you really want to script AIM, theres a much more involved way to do it involving Windows API.

Oh I see. Well, i don't realy know what you mean by "Script AIM" But I was just wondering what kind of things i could do to people's AIM Program and/or Computer if when they click on a link i make.

Thats all.
Thanks
