First of all, not sure if this is a bug, a missing feature or something else. I love your addon and your work and I've found out this works with other addons like ElvUI, so I'm surprised it does not work with Prat.
I want to thank you for creating and mantaining this addong and for taking a look at this.
Describe the bug
Raid icons in chat do not work when written in different languages. I know this is standard chat behaviour but it works in other addons like ElvUI. Also can't filter them to make it work.
To Reproduce
(I'm alwas putting text in between " ")
You need one WoW writer in English and reader in any other language
I'm using the example with Star icon but it is the same for circle/coin, square/blue, skull, etc.
If you write "{star}" in a English client it will show in chat the raid icon star.
In another language (I'm using Spanish) it just shows the text "{star}" instead of the icon.
Other addons like ElvUI show the icon properly.
A workaround is writing "{rt1}" but that would mean chaning everyone's way of doing things, which won't work.
My workaround with prat was to try to filter "{star}" and get it converted to "{rt1}". It does work but at text level, so Prat does not recognize the icon and just translates the pure text and shows me "{rt1}".
If I send "{rt1}" directly it will actually show the star icon as expected.
Expected behavior
When sending any text such us "{star}", "{Star}". "{circle}", etc. to get the raid icon
