One missing feature from Adium that’s been bugging me for ages is a way for the file transfer window to auto close.
There doesn’t seem to be any such future for this feature, so I thought I’d knock up a little AppleScript to do the work for me.

Simply drop this into the AppleScript editor of your choice and save it somewhere on your mac, then follow the instructions underneath.

tell application "Adium"
	tell window "File Transfers"
		set visible to false
	end tell
end tell

• Open Adium Preferences and click on the Events icon.
• Find File transfer completed successfully, select it and then click Edit in the bottom right corner.
• Under the action drop down box choose Run an AppleScript.
• Browse to the AppleScript you’ve just saved.
• Apply those settings and you’re done!

You could also add the same AppleScript to the other file transfer events, but that’s up to you. I’m trying to work out a way for the AppleScript to clear the download list, but I’m not getting anywhere at the moment!

There’s three of us who own different sized PowerBooks so we took some photos this evening.
Here are two of the pictures that we came up with.

Trying to make them all look the same size!
