After six hours of running the script, I haven’t seen any errors. It is working fine now, thanks. I’ll update you if I encounter future errors. :)

Hi rEnr3n,

Please download new version of the script from http://www.miljan.org/download/pidgin_status_v2.5.py

It should fix the problem you are experiencing plus some different bugs I found.

Let me know how it goes.

Enjoy,
Miljan

Ok here is the file http://uploading.com/files/d56ba562/pidgin.txt/

Here is the command I type in terminal:
python pidgin_status_v2.py -d -t 10 -f /home/ren/Documents/Python/pidgin.txt

Thank you for your time.

Hi rEnr3n,

Is there any chance that you can upload somewhere the quote file you are using with the script? I’m afraid it will be very hard to guess what’s going on without it.

Hi, I love your script but I get this error all the time, after a few minutes of starting it.

File “pidgin_status_v2.py”, line 297, in
set_status (purple)
File “pidgin_status_v2.py”, line 272, in set_status
msg = get_quote (opt.file)
File “pidgin_status_v2.py”, line 244, in get_quote
return quote
UnboundLocalError: local variable ‘quote’ referenced before assignment

Can you fix it? Or can you tell me how do I fix it? It’s very much appreciated. Thank you.

I used you original pidgin_status.py here in mplayer to show the currently playing song.
