+## Import AIM Smiley Packs
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+AIM emoticons (also called smileys) are the graphics that appear when users send messages with specific codes like `:)`
|
|
|
+or `:D`. Retro AIM Server includes a BART import utility that allows you to import smiley pack collections.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+This guide shows you how to install a smiley pack available
|
|
|
+from [The Internet Archive](https://archive.org/details/aol_instant_messenger_smiley_packs).
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+1. **Download Smiley Pack**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ First download the smiley pack archive.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ```bash
|
|
|
+ curl -L -o aim_bart_emoticons.zip "https://archive.org/download/aol_instant_messenger_smiley_packs/aim_bart_emoticons.zip"
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Then extract the archive:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ```bash
|
|
|
+ unzip aim_bart_emoticons.zip
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This creates an `aim_bart_emoticons/` directory containing 86 files (1 per pack) with hash names like `0201D213A4`,
|
|
|
+ `0201D205C8`, etc.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+2. **Import Emoticons**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ From the root of the Retro AIM Server repository, run the BART import script to upload the smiley pack:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ```bash
|
|
|
+ ./scripts/import_bart.sh -t emoticon_set -u http://localhost:8080 /path/to/aim_bart_emoticons
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Replace `/path/to/aim_bart_emoticons` with the actual path to your extracted directory.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+3. **Verify Import Success**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Check that all emoticons were imported successfully:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ```bash
|
|
|
+ curl "http://localhost:8080/bart?type=1024"
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+4. **Send an Emoticon**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ After importing, you can test the emoticons in AIM clients by sending messages with emoticon codes. For example, the
|
|
|
+ classic smiley emoticon can be tested with:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+ <font sml="KwAAAeQ=">:)</font>
|
|
|
+ ```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This code references the smiley pack with hash `2B000001E4` that should now be available in your server.
