Arbitrary highlight strings #37

Open github-cygwin opened 10 years ago

github-cygwin commented 10 years ago

Is there a chance to implement a feature as in xchat, to allow arbitrary strings to be highlighted?

As an example, consider a user who's logged in from home using the usual nick "user". This session keeps running even 24x7. Now the user, being out and about, logs in via Atomic using the nick "user|atomic", but she would still like to be notified if somebody pings her default nick "user".

In a situation like this it would be very helpful to be able to define "user" as another string to highlight on.

Thanks, Corinna

This is something I've been meaning to implement for a while. I will definitely go and look at what our looks to do this
