Description

Before switching to pidgin, i used to send a lot of folders to friends over AIM 6.x. Please add the option of sending not just singular files, but folders of files. Will save a lot of time unzipping//zipping, and receiving.

My friend just moved to Pidgin from AIM and said he used to set folders up for sharing with his friends on AIM. He was wondering if there were any tickets here for this feature to be added. This is pretty much what he described, and to me it sounds pretty interesting..

I was wondering if you intended to make it so one can choose "shared folders" that friends online can browse and download pictures or things from when they feel like it? Or just to send folders of files? I think the first part and the second part would both be cool choices here.

I'd love to see this feature implemented as well. Though this feature could only be possible once bug #247 is fixed. Because it would be terrible to send and share files at a maximum speed of 3k/s.

+1 for this feature enhancement. I occasionally send file folders through AIM and it would be really nice to be able to select the folder(s) rather than zip them.
