Hi, I wrote the history2 plugin long ago. Here a more complete explanation why I wrote it: > This is a copy of the old history plugin, but with so many changes, that I created it as a new one "history2". > > Most important changes: > > - based on sqlite3 instead of xml-files > > - import history button in config dialog > > - import option added for the other xml-based history-plugin > > - pidgin import improved > > - test and skip duplicates on import (so it is possible to synchronize regularly from a windows-pidgin installation for example) > > - more speed in most cases > > The main reason I began to rewrite the complete plugin was, that I had dataloss by importing from pidgin with the old history plugin. > The months, which where imported from pidgin, did overwrite the kopete history. This was unacceptable. So history2 plugin has quite some advantages, especially with large logs. And I think it would not be too hard to add a sqlite-column for rich text messages. But you decide, I have no time for helping unfortunately.
