Now that skype will be retiring its desktop API in favor of skype URIs, I am trying to figure out how to modify the status and mood message. My application is a chrome extension, and people that use it know what it does. Its a legitimate use case. Currently its easy with the COM api wrapper on windows and a simple applescript on OS X. It seems this will become impossible to do once they retire the API. Any ideas how to do this?
As you can see from the API reference, sadly there are no methods to affect status/mood in the new API.
It will, indeed, be impossible, as well as porting many other functions exposed to the deprecated skype4com.
