Show Contast List from command line?

[devilspgd]

Is there any way to trigger the Action: "Contact List: Show" from an external program?

Ideally I'd like to have a command line parameter or something similar.

The goal is to have a programmable key on my keyboard that will launch Trillian if it's not running, or bring up my contact list if Trillian is already running.

Thanks in advance.

Trillian 3.1 does that already, at least partially. If you have one of your Trillian profiles set to auto-login, the first time you run trillian.exe it will launch the program, then the next time you run it it will show the contact list.

Mine doesn't. If the contact list is visible but not on top it comes to the top, but if it was hidden it doesn't come up.

It's better, but not perfect.

I'm using two profiles still, but I'll fix that later today.

Thanks though.

Yeah, that's the only way to do it now. I'll see if they can do more in the next beta (make trillian.exe show the contact list in more cases)
