Disable notifications on skype only for particular contact under Linux.

Sometimes we need to switch off skype notifications but for particular contact only. In windows there is easy solution «Conversation» -> «Notification settings ...» -> «Do not notify me» unfortunately this option is missing under Linux version. I googled for solutions but there is no results. All articles shows that this is possible under Windows and Mac versions of skype. Once I thought I noticed that some of the commands for group chat is available for personal.

I did some experiments and came to a solution. When you want to disable notifications on skype only for particular contact under Linux you can use this command in chat window:

/alertsoff

. If you want to activate notifications you can use:

/alertson

. Hope this helps someone with a similar problem.
