Display iTunes cover art in iChat AV

Sounds a bit like Konfabulator. (Which also offers much more).

Display iTunes cover art in iChat AV

No. It's nothing like Konfabulator.

I like Konfabulator, and think it's a neat app with some legitimate uses (although these are less than 10% of what's available out there, and 90% of people use it to have their machines' displays look cool) but I hate when users plug their favorite programs regardless of the relevancy.

Konfabulator has nothing like this, can't do nothing like this and is completely irrelevant to this hint.

This hint says how to put cover art in the picture field in iChat and song name in the status of it. Konfabulator can't do anything like this, it's not designed to do anything like this and would be overkill and stupid trying to use it for something like this.

Also, the comment you're replying to proposes an AppleScript daemon to run these kinds of tasks (why nobody thinks of cron, which I use to run AppleScript tasks periodically at specified intervals, as precisely what they want is beyond me) which is even further apart from anything Konfabulator could ever do to make your comment even more off-topic.

Almost as off-topic as my reply, which I couldn't help.

Think, people, before blindly plugging things you like. Doing it like this just shows how little you understand the exact thing you're preaching about.

Actually, I think it is slightly relevant even though the author of the comment wasn't clear why.

Konfabulator has a widget available that has this capability.
