Hey.

Is there some way I can have chat history either sent to me or recalled through my own computer after I have already logged? I need to obtain some chat from the other day and this would be useful. Also is there anything in the works that would allow all chat history to automatically save on my computer as there is with applications such as msn messenger? Thanks in advance for the reply!

Cheers,

Kirk

Hey Kirk. There's no way to do this at present. So sadly if you didn't save your chat, you can't get it back.

Automatic chat-logging is in the development queue; no definite date on when it'll come, but I have many uses for it too, so I'm inextricably interested.

For now, what I do is, I use a macro program that automates the following steps *before* I log out:
1. Open Chat History
2. Select All
3. Copy all the text in the window
4. Switch to a text editor
5. Paste it in.
I often have meetings and errands to keep track of, so this helps me greatly. Cheers!
