This method is equivalent to the other constructor with obsolete = true.

broadcastMessage	(	self,
		QString	msg_type,
		QString	message,
		int	screen,
		bool	obsolete
	)

Deprecated:

This method is equivalent to broadcastMessage() with obsolete = true.

		QString	msg_type,
		QString	message
	)

Deprecated:

This method is equivalent to broadcastMessage() with obsolete = true.

sendMessage	(	self,
		int	w,
		QString	msg_type,
		QString	message,
		bool	obsolete
	)

Deprecated:

This method is equivalent to sendMessage() with obsolete = true.

sendMessage	(	self,
		int	w,
		QString	msg_type,
		QString	message
