Sometimes, you may find a link similar to mailto that commands a certain application to do something. Some IM protocols have adopted that and created their own "protocols" or URI schemes, and react upon clicking on one. At least, it usually can open a chat window with an user.
What I'd like to see is Miranda IM recognizing these URI schemes and doing the appropriate action.
Here are some URI schemes:
AIM
Send message: aim:goim?screenname=user&message=this+is+a+message
Add contact: aim:addbuddy?screenname=user
Away message: aim:goaway?message=this+is+a+message
Google Talk - Documentation
Open chat window: gtalk:chat?jid=example@gmail.com
GaduGadu
Open chat window: gg:user
MSN
Add contact: msnim:add?contact=user
Open chat window: msnim:chat?contact=user
Skype - Documentation
skype:user[?[add|call|chat|sendfile|userinfo]]
Possilby callto: too.
Jabber - Documentation
xmpp:<user>@<host>[:<port>]/[<resource>][?<query>]
Yahoo! Messenger
Open chat window: ymsgr:sendIM?<screenname>
IRC - Documentation
irc://<host>[:<port>]/[<channel>[?<password>]]
I'd love if Miranda could support some of these.
