hi.
i just wondered if there is a way that i can display my contact list in
columns?

i usually have my messenger main windows maximized so i only use a small bit
on the left side for the contacts. and i have my contacts organized in goups.
but in this way i can only see who is online from one group after i minimized
the other or scrolled down. wich is borign to say the least.
if i had the chance to put the groups in columns, side by side, i could use
all of the screen area and see who is online in each group more easily. and
scrolling sideways would also be a good ideia.
is there a plug in that can do this? or do you plan to put it in some next
version?
it wouldn't be too much difficult for you and it would be a nice add i think.
anyone disagrees?

thanks for your time and your work,
Jeremias

Greetings,

I'm certainly don't disagree, although I personally haven't really kept the Messenger window
maximized for very long. Columns would be a great view though.
