Cellular  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 10.0.001
by: totalpackage, drjebus, Sugarwing

Cellular is an instant messenger mod (for only whispers) based on the functionality of an old version of ForgottenChat.

YouTube Intro



Features:

  • Many appearance options
  • History log
  • A way to copy text
  • Reuse of the default chat editbox
  • Whispers shown in separate windows or a tab-based single window
  • Should work with most spam filter mods
  • ...and other basic IM features
  • !! New !! Language support for enUS / enGB and deDE


How to Use:
  • "/cellular", check Interface Options->AddOns, or right-click a window for options
  • Left-click a window to toggle the editbox
  • Left-click a tab to activate it
  • Shift-left-click and drag a window to move
  • Shift-left-click and drag bottom-right corner to resize
  • Right-click a tab for show/close/options dropdown
  • Middle-click a tab to close
  • Hold ctrl and close any window/tab to quick remove from history
  • Several convenient buttons (some require shift clicking for confirmation reasons)


Warnings:
  • If you have history enabled and notice that Cellular is using a lot of memory, you should cleanup your history entries using Cellular's history options.
  • If you're experiencing crashing due to memory errors, disable and clear your history.
  • If you cherish your history, you can back up the saved variables file and then delete it. You can view it in any text editor later. The location of the saved variables file is here:
    ...\WTF\Account\<Account Name>\<Server Name>\<Character Name>\SavedVariables\Cellular.lua

I kind of left myself open for that one posting a double question, so either way I'll just make a post maybe going into more detail.

Say I press tab to switch between current whispers. Let's say I have a person named Bob, and Dave switching between the cellular tabs.

On cellular I have Bob's conversation open. If I press tab while I have my reply open it will switch to type a message to Dave then Cellular will switch the tab interface to Dave's tab. This feature was in WIM if you have ever used it and I switched to this because it was so broken.

Either way you choose to go keep up the good work - It's a great mod.

Added the option to clear data that's older than 30 days. May be useful to most. Data will be permanently lost.

@ Psychoshamoo - Nope.

@ Whatever4ever - No problem.

@ Samfisher - Wow, your history must be huge. You'll need to clean up by deleting entries from Cellular's history option. Or if you cherish your history, you can go into your WTF and back up your history (you can read it in any text editor) and then delete it:
...\WTF\Account\<Account Name>\<Server Name>\<Character Name>\SavedVariables\Cellular.lua

@ Kellindil - if you mean lock by not allowing mouse actions, then nope. That'll make Cellular pretty useless.

Hmm, is there any way to decrease the amount of RAM Cellular uses when idle? I log in and before I even whisper anyone, it's already taking about 3MB RAM. When I disable it the game becomes smoother. I love this add-on but I have to turn this off to get better frames =( Is there maybe a lightweight version or some settings I have to tune? Thanks for this add-on!

Could it possibly be made where as you press tab to switch names it will also switch to the appropriate persons tab? If that makes any sense.

Sorry, can't pay you to say this since this is non-profit mod. Anyway, you're welcome.

Just started playing again recently, and I felt really bad when I could no longer find Cellular on Wowace or Curse. Now I found it here, yay!

Thank you for all your work on this and for continuing it; I couldn't live without your addon! (Well, I could, but it would be very painful.)

I have a question: is there any way to have it work with Fubar? Like, be minimized to Fubar?

Hey there

Love this addon, do have one tiny request, though.

Is it possible to get an option to place the Edit Frame above the chat window, rather than the bottom?

Just wanted to say thanks for this addon!

I used WIM for months and have recently been trying to cut down the memory my UI was using because it was getting out of hand. I noticed this addon in a few compilations and decided to give it a try. It has all the features of WIM except uses less then 1/10 the memory of WIM, is faster, looks cleaner and performs better. Really a great addon, wish I had found this sooner!

For anyone out there considering this over WIM do it. This addon is much better and now with the sound support using prat allows you to get that functionality as well.
