Skins
CAUTION: THIS IS AN ALPHA STAGE PLUGIN. IT CAN DO VERY BAD THINGS. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
This is a service plugin to allow using different skins. It uses javascript as the language the skins are written, thus allowing a lot of flexibility.
Keep in mind that this is an initial version of the plugin. It is intended to grow a loot (its to do list is bigger than its features list :P ). Currently it allows only calculating the position of elements.
It works based in the consept of a skin beeing a group of small skins (one for each client). The skins are inside the dir <Miranda>\Skins\<Skin name> , and inside that folder, each client skin has the name <Client>.msk
Inside the zip there is also a version of MyDetails using this plugin.
Many thanks to the v8 team for the javascript engine implementation.
This needs Miranda 0.8 to work.

Known problems
- It seems to have a memory leak (last time I debugged it, it was inside v8 - maybe I just don't understant its garbage collector?)
