Skype notification handler, executes libnotify commands on skype events using notify-send

libnotify-skype.sh

#!/bin/sh

# all variables found so far
# execute the below line for all events
# ~/bin/libnotify-skype.sh "%type" "%sname" "%sskype" "%smessage" "%fpath" "%fname" "%fsize" "%fprogress" "%fspeed"
# below line prints all the param values on any event
# notify-send "$1 $2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9";

# shorthand for notification

    notify-send -u "$prio" -t "$dtime" "$1" "$2";
}

# each of these cases are an event fired when something happens in skype
# remember to hide default events otherwise it'll show both skype notifications
