hi,
i was wondering if we could have windowgrams expire.
like 'put' commands in a .zwgc.desc could have an
additional command-line option specifying an expiration
interval.
this way, when i come back to my room, i don't have to
click away ~50 window grams. if so and so, logged in
at 11am, and the time is now 5pm, it's just totally irrelevant.
like i would have login/logout and incoming/ping messages
disappear after 2 seconds or something. even e-mail
notifications could disappear after 5 seconds.
any thoughts? i tried looking through the source code
to zwgc, but no clean way to do this immediately comes to view.
thanks,
jon
