hmmm - I made a small change to the script and now I get

Bob Daly Ireland

I changed from :
$2=="ACCOUNT" && NF > 3{s=S3}
$2=="Name"{s=s" "S3}
$2=="Add"{s=s" "$3}

to:
$2=="ACCOUNT" && NF > 3{s=S3}
$2=="Name"{s=s" "$3}
$2=="Add"{s=s" "$3}


I dont know much about awk to know why this worked and what to do to get the ACCOUNT to work as well... Can you explain what each row of code in the script is actually doing?

SYNOPSIS

       mc-tool list

       mc-tool add PROFILE DISPLAY-NAME [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]

       mc-tool add MANAGER/PROTOCOL [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]

       mc-tool update ACCOUNT [PARAMETER-SETTINGS...]

       mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT on|off

       mc-tool remove ACCOUNT

DESCRIPTION

       mc-tool's usage depends on its first argument (the "command")

   SPECIFYING ACCOUNTS
       Where an account name is needed, it may be given as a full object path (e.g.  /org/freedesktop/Telepathy/Account/gabble/jabber/example), or
       as the unique account-specific suffix (e.g.  gabble/jabber/example).

   SPECIFYING PARAMETER SETTINGS
       Many commands take arguments that represent Telepathy connection manager parameters (see the Telepathy Specification for details of these).
       Each argument has the following form:

       TYPE:NAME=VALUE

       where  TYPE  is either int, uint, bool, or string (other parameter types exist, but are currently unsupported by mc-tool), NAME is the name
       of the connection manager parameter (e.g.  account or password), and VALUE is the parameter's value (with integers in decimal, and booleans
       as 0 or 1).

       The update command also accepts arguments of the form clear:NAME which delete the named parameter from the account configuration.

   LIST
       mc-tool list lists the available accounts.

   ADD
       mc-tool	add  adds  an  account.  The  connection  manager and protocol can either be given as the name of a Mission Control profile, (e.g.
       gtalk), or as a slash-separated connection manager name and protocol (e.g.  gabble/jabber).

   DISPLAY
       mc-tool display ACCOUNT DISPLAY-NAME sets the DisplayName property of ACCOUNT to DISPLAY-NAME.

   NICK
       mc-tool nick ACCOUNT NICKNAME sets the Nickname property of ACCOUNT to NICKNAME.

   SERVICE
       mc-tool service ACCOUNT SERVICE-NAME sets the Service property of ACCOUNT to SERVICE-NAME.

   ICON
       mc-tool icon ACCOUNT ICON sets the Icon property of ACCOUNT to ICON.

   SHOW
       mc-tool show ACCOUNT shows information about ACCOUNT.

   GET
       mc-tool get ACCOUNT PARAMETER [PARAMETER...]  shows the values of the given parameters of ACCOUNT.

   ENABLE
       mc-tool enable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to True.

   DISABLE
       mc-tool disable ACCOUNT sets the Enabled property of ACCOUNT to False.

   AUTO-PRESENCE
       mc-tool auto-presence ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the AutomaticPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message MESSAGE.

   REQUEST
       mc-tool request ACCOUNT STATUS [MESSAGE] sets the RequestedPresence property of ACCOUNT to STATUS with optional message	MESSAGE;  this	is
       how you tell an account to connect or go offline, for example.

   AUTO-CONNECT
       mc-tool	auto-connect  ACCOUNT  on  sets the ConnectAutomatically property of ACCOUNT to True.  mc-tool auto-connect ACCOUNT off sets it to
       False.
