Description Guillaume Desmottes 2008-09-01 02:44:18 UTC

Telepathy-python examples should be able to use existing connections if no account file is specified.
We should probably do something like that:
• If first argument is an existing account file then create a Connection object, connect its and pass it to the script when it's connected
• Else, list all the existing connected Connections, ask to the user which one to use and pass it to the script

I think it's sane to assume that most of the demo scripts don't have to connect the Connection object themself. This would have the nice side effect to make demo scripts smaller and so more focused on the demoed code.
