History files merge script

Hi all,

I wrote a Perl script to merge two history files of CenterICQ into one file. 

This script might be handy if you'd like to merge a MSN (CICQ) history file 
and an ICQ history file. Especially if people migrate from one protocol to 
the other and you forgot to symlink the history files. I often had people in 
my contact list who stopped using ICQ and started using MSN or used them in 
parallel. This script looks at the timestamp from each message and stitches 
the files together nicely.

The Perl script is here:
http://wwwhome.cs.utwente.nl/~kosterj/cicq/mergeHistory.pl

The highlighted code is here:

Let me know if you like it!


Something else, the snapshot directory at the server is quite out of date. 
Could someone take a look at it? If no patches are applied, the source code 
is up to date, but is this the case?
http://centericq.de/archive/source/snapshots/

This question came into my mind when I was trying to download the full source 
code with all the (security) patches included. But I failed at the primary 
CICQ locations.

Cheers,
Jayjay
