Skype released an update on Wednesday to Skype for Mac OS X.

In this release:

  • Chat limit raised to 50 people at the same time
  • Drag and drop contacts to add them to chats and calls
  • "Events" pane shows missed calls, chats, voice mails. Also shows SkypeOut minutes left.
  • Animated emoticons
  • Notifications with Growl
  • "Do Not Disturb" mode blocks new incoming chats
  • Screensaver changes your status to "Away"
  • option to show online contacts only, hiding all your other contacts
  • return values for Skype API AppleScript interface
  • tooltips in contact list
  • unread chats count
  • use Safari's download folder for incoming file transfers as the default location
  • bookmarked chats now sorted alphabetically [this loses chronological information, so may not be an improvement]
  • you can now associate up to three e-mail addresses with your account (enter them in the "Edit Profile" window)

Bolded items are Mac-specific.
