#12487: Create separate window for nicksaid messages
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: tjbonzo | Type: plugin request
Status: new | Component: plugins
Version: 2.7.3 | Keywords: notification nicksaid
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Most of the nicksaid plugins assume you are at your terminal, just not
actively reading the chat. I would like a separate window that pops up and
starts logging the nicksaid messages (with surrounding context even). If I
am in a chat and break for lunch, I can come back and see all the
"nicksaid" messages in one window rather than scrolling/searching back in
the chat history.
A separate window is required (versus searching the history) because the
notification needs to be "in your face". If people have to do work
(search) they will tend to ignore their nicksaid messages - if a plugin at
least pops up a window (and leaves it there) - then they have to "actively
ignore" their nicksaid messages.
