2006-04-11T23:50:21 ayttm logging patch:

I upgraded from everybuddy to ayttm, but I wanted to bring my patch with me. This patch puts full times (except tzone) onto the display and log files, giving you a much better chance of analyzing them later. Also, I backslash-escape newlines and backslashes, so that the log records aren't ambiguous. This revised patch also includes a fix to a const error in yahoo.c, which I think the proper ubuntu package has its own fix for.

This was my first time working with ubuntu packages, and I learned almost nothing. To apply my patch, run something like this:

apt-get source ayttm
tar xvzf ayttm_0.4.6+26.orig.tar.gz
cd ayttm-0.4.6+26
patch -p 1 -i ../new_ayttm-0.4.6+26_log.diff
dpkg-buildpackage -nc -rfakeroot
cd ..
dpkg -i ayttm_0.4.6+26-1build1_i386.deb

The good logs will look like this:
