Sorry if I changed the title, but I think this is a more accurate  
subject.

Well, yes. It's not that hard to push the build button... The hard  
part is changing the #includes, as I don't know the project code.
If I want to build a adium version with msn-pecan, what needs to be  
changed? Let's assume that I download Adium directly from SVN.

You're right, of course. On the other hand, between Adium users this  
can be done without a great amoung of work no?
My original idea was to use only the Adium application to parse the  
html and then have the message style layer interpret the content.

I think this is similar to what Adium currently does with its smiles,  
am I right?

Thanks for the attention, and sorry for my bad english :P
