Announce colors and Bot personality.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I attempted to use color codes to the !announce command but was 
unsuccessful.  It's is possible to add this or am I doing it wrong.  

Also, I'd like to talk as the bot.  I think it'd be fun to have 
conversations with people as the bot.  Helps to pass the time while the 
game fills.  

Lastly, I want to program a personality into my bot.  One method would be 
to allow a !chat command that would accept phrases as a parameters.  For 
instance !chat Who's your daddy?  Bot->Icono.  Silly I know, but shouldn't 
be too hard to impliment.

You cannot send colour codes to the bot from within Warcraft 3 as they will be
stripped out by your client. You might be able to do what you want by 
hardcoding the
message or reading it from a text file instead.

I won't be adding a way to chat from the virtual host player, at least not 
directly.
I think the !saygames command will chat from the virtual host player but it 
will add
a prefix like "[ADMIN]" and it will also print the message in all the other 
games the
bot is currently hosting.
