..Yahoo Scripting?

Is there such thing as Yahoo Scripting...?

If there is such thing, can anyone inform me about any stuff about this "Yahoo Scripting"

If you dont know what i mean by "Yahoo Scripting" it means scripting on Yahoo.

Hope there is such thing... coz s2pid msn aint free also noone goes in my groups chatroom

Didnt yahoo upgrade so bots couldnt connect? (Except bloody porn bots no doubt)

info on the above

Yes, I was able to connect mirc to yahoo chats. But yahoo updated, so i have to edit the connection

hey neil thats my real name aswell. lol

from what i know mirc can't connect because of the way they have their chat system setup. I know for a fact that very few now can connect, try something like cheetachat but from what i know mirc doesn't connect. And besides what would you use mirc for in there, you can't boot anyone or anything so yea, its not real use.

the only people from what i know that use bots on yahoo are the ones that want to cause problems because there are no moderated rooms....So I'm asking again why would you need a bot

Jus a thought, why not advertise to ur mates on msgr about ya comm, get em interested? jus a word of warning.... dont advertise comm here as ozzy or err0r will most prob close ya topic lol

Well the chat system they have doesn't allow to connect.I don't think yahoo can be connected with mIRC may be other clients can connect i dono that.

This thread is like a year old, but here I am looking around for someone to help me with this very subject.

I'm a total noob at this crap, and probly cuz i'm over 30, its beyond me,(it's only crap because im knocking myself out trying to figure out how to get this "crap" i got working). Right now I am connecting to yahoo rooms through 'sockets' using mirc, mirc is not connecting to the yahoo server, instead of a channel i have a window. I''m still working out alout of junk as far as the sockets, actually i'm learning to do this stuff from a broken script.

Anyways ... right now i can join rooms, change rooms, talk in room, the script had a dialog in it that gets the yahoo rooms list, it works fine as is i changed nothing , and plan on leaving it the way i found it to give credit to the person that made it.

I havent started working on the buddy list yet, but thats not going to be hard to do with the socket connections. My problem is finding ppl to give me advice, this is all kinda tough for a person thats as clueless as i am, but i learn VERY fast, and i am gtting this to work all on my own, and belive i can do it by myself, who the hell wants to go that route though?

What i need is..

#1 help

#2 making a dialog, the hash tables confuse me

#3 help figuring out an easy way to get mirc to think its connected to yahoo, and send mirc commands through the socket as if it were in a channel.( i bet theres an easy alias that again is simply beyond me thus far)

After that, it just needs "junk". hopefully someones interested in trying to get a good yahoo connection script goin, like i said i'm already connecting and changing rooms , and it happens at light speed, no waiting.

the only other thing i'd like to mention is that, i'd rather work with someone in real time, maybe on an irc server or something, i dont wanna end up handing over what ive done for someone to run off leaving me still looking for help while they make a sweet connections script. rippers suck

thanks for the help you might offer

imp

well if you dont show us the connection how are we ment to help lol

Sounds l337

well dialogs suck til you get them and then you wonder why it took you so long to understand in the first place

you make mirc think it's connected to yahoo by looping to a localhost socket and making mirc connect to a 'server' there. open a socklisten socket on say port 4321 and /server 127.0.0.1:4321 and when you get your socklisten event, do /sockaccept <whatever sock name u want here>, and send the standard IRC raws that tell mirc it's connected. usually 001-003 for the 'hi my name is irc.yahoo.com and ill be your server this evening' crap, and 372 for MOTD if you want. don't forget raw 005 to tell mirc what to expect on the server.

basically you'll be mimmicking an entire irc server for mirc's benefit. that means you have to get familiar with the protocol yahoo chat uses, and convert it into IRC protocol. that means formatting the lines a certain way and spoofing certain commands.. for example..

:nickname!address PRIVMSG #channel :message

is somebody named 'nickname' saying "message" to chatroom "channel". i assume yahoo protocol is totally different from IRC protocol, which means you can't just patch the info through to mirc, because it won't understand wtf is going on.

Vex, that's interesting. I think I'm going to attempt what you suggested, just for the hell of it. It's been a while since I've messed around with scripting or Yahoo, but I just wanna see how difficult it would be for me to try to flesh out a IRC-Yahoo! protocol bridge.

Any other scripters out there played with the Yahoo protocols?

Grr, I can't get the 353/NAMES stuff working when I join a channel. Haven't had many problems up until this little snag.

I don't know if I'm going about it the right way. I gotta be close, I can see the nicknames echoed into the Status Window and the End of /NAMES list, but they aren't added to the nicklist.

edit1: I still can't do it the proper way, but I've managed to work around it, at least. Blah.

edit2: Lmfao, I had tats trivia addon running on Yahoo chat. I can't believe that.

Ok, i have dwelled on the thought of getting mirc to connect to yahhoo chat befor, if ANYONE has a connection that currently connects to yahoo chat in dialog window etc (Well, i dont wanna learn the Y! protocol) then send it to me, i will be happy to convert this to the irc protocol (so it works normally with mIRC)

You can send it to JD [at] OzChat [dot] org

Oh, and has anyone noticed this is in the "MSN" section? lol

You can grab the original source based on YCHT here - http://sourceforge.net/projects/mirc-yahoo/

It was last updated in 2003 and needs a few tweaks to work. It'll at least give you a starting point, though.

edit1: yeah and sorry posting this up in the MSN section, but the topic is already here, no need to plop it someplace else right?

edit2: I submitted my tweaked version of the original, maybe TG will accept it and it can be used as another example for anyone interested

edit3: Looks yahoo pulled the plug on the YCHT servers 4-19-2006, guess it's on CHAT2 and YMSG

why would u want to only thing u would be doing is making a pornbot banlist cuz thats all there is on yahoo

I couldn't agree anymore with that.
