 I have on IRC (especially the internal company one) tons of messages like
 "tpelka|mtg je teď znám jako tpelka|lunch" (key phrase is a Czech
 translation of "is now known as"). I would like to avoid them, so I tried
 to create this simple python script:
 {{{

 """
 Script for filtering incoming chat messages in Pidgin.

         bus.add_signal_receiver(should_allow_chat_message,

 However, even when it is running it doesn't show ANY system messages
 (flags in the log are either 1 or 2, never anything more than that).
