I just realized that you don't need this script if you install Growl. Just use the log feature in Growl. I will still be working on making it better than Growl's logger (appreciate any further suggestions) but I just thought I'd let you guys know.

I just tested the script by downloading and running it, instead of using the install link and it worked. Try getting the latest version of the beta.

Did you try downloading it and running it instead of the direct install?

You mean the away message itself? I'm not so sure. Unless Adium gives off a flag everytime someone goes away that includes the message. There seems to be a way to set a message using AppleScript. (http://trac.adiumx.com/ticket/2347). So conversely reading the status should be possible. I should be able to solve that problem in a week or two. Thanks for the suggestion though. I'll try to work it in.

Yeah, when I'm free of the daily hustle and bustle I'll try to add that functionality. I'm working on understanding how to integrate that part of Adium. Thanks.
