First off, I'm really liking Prat and its modules, good work on that :)

Now, I know this isn't techincally a Prat only question, but is this the standard chart you used for the various color codes?

Quote from vadda »

when I open the editbox and press the up-arrow I can only repeat the last message 
I wrote.
Is there possibility to repeat more than one messages?

I noticed that as well.  Funny enough, all that the module does is flip a setting for altarrowmode, it doesn't actually interact with the commands you type at all.  I'll look at it closer tonight, but that may just be the default functionality with that particular setting.  If so I am not sure if it is worth the extra coding and overhead to make a bandaid for it.

Jexx: You can created a boatload of colors with RGB, it isn't limited to just what is on that chart. That looks like it would be a useful reference chart if you were looking for a color but didnt know what its code was though. :)

Jexx, the most common system used is RRGGBB in hexadecimal.

What you have is the 3 color channels with values of 0-255, then convert the values to hexadecimal.

For example:
Black
Red: 0, Green: 0, Blue: 0
000000

Red
Red: 255, Green: 0, Blue: 0
FF0000

Orange
Red: 255, Green: 0, Blue: 0
FF8F00

There can be more to it with alpha channels, but that's the basic idea.

I'd like to request a feature for Prat_Timestamps - namely to be able to display timestamps after, not before messages in certain chatframes (such as those justified to the right).

Heh, Same request I've always had for this mod.

A plug in that separates Officer Chat from Guild Chat, so you can push them to separate windows independant of each other; if one wishes.

Confab does this, if you wish to have a Code source.

I am not sure that adding an option to suppress displaying the words "says", "yells", and "whispers" is really in the scope of playernames though since that seems like a duplication of the planned feature in channelnames to create shortnames for says, yells, and whispers.

I actually really like that feature. There's no point in the log displaying "says" "yells" or "whispers" when it's already color coded. At least make it an option. My goal would to get my chat to say:

Coolguy: omg like i luv u
Guildie: bwl in an hour yo
Failuredude: omg buy my wool fo cheap!!!

I didn't see it on the to do list on the wiki page, so...

Please add the ability to change the number of lines of text kept in a window's history.

Sorry if this qeustions be up before but..

-is it possible to have an option to have the channel tabs on the inside instead of on the top?
- are there going to be a highlight of spec words option in Prat. I´m using chatmod now and love the hightlight and print on screen option.

I do not have a problem adding an option to toggle the colon separater (":") on/off.

Add it, please!

With channelnames I would like to be able to do any of the following:
[P][playername]: text
[G][playername]: text
[O][playername]: text
[1][playername]: text
[R][playername]: text
[RL][playername]: text
[RW][playername]: text
[B][playername]: text
[BL][playername]: text
[1][playername]: text
[2][playername]: text
[3][playername]: text
[4][playername]: text
[5][playername]: text
[6][playername]: text
[7][playername]: text
[9][playername]: text
[10][playername]: text
[playername][S]: text
[playername][Y]: text
[playername][W]: text

The idea being to keep it lightweight but still powerful.  :)

Delicious! =)

This is the only thing keeping me from 100% loving prat :) I was so happy to get Prat running yesterday, everything just did what it was supposed to, so no more Confab+vChat for me.

If someone could create a module to seperate /o and /g I'd be very appreciative!

is there a possibility to completely hide the tab on top of a chat frame? (having an option in prat to hide/show the tab would be great)

Yes please! It should be checking where Prat_Justify is setting alignment to and positioning the timestamps appropriately.

The scroll module thinks it's off every time I reset my UI. That is, I can't mousewheel-scroll till I toggle scrolling off and back on.

a request for Prat_Scroll

shift+scroll scrolls one page up/down, ctrl+scroll - top/bottom (i even prefer to switch keybindings, as it was in Nurfed, but i think a lot of people here already got used to ctrl+scroll goes to top/bottom)
but a page scroll option would be very nice.

Can you allow an option to undock the chat edit box, confab has this and its really the only thing I use it for.

I second this request. It is the only thing keeping me with confab. (I like my chat screens in odd places that make having the editbox either above it or below it ungainly)

I've add all the feature requested to the wiki page ( http://wowace.com/wiki/Prat )

I've actually some times, so I'll look into the Guild/Officer chat separation, and the /say,/yell,/whisper thing :D

Thanks for using Prat :) and continue to give feedback :)

[EDIT] I've actually written :
Prat_History : let you choose the number of lines in chat window's history
Prat_Keybindgins : add keybinding for channels
Pra_ChannelsSeparator : let you configure raid, officer and battlegroupe channels separetly.

But EU-Servers are actually down for maintenance, so I can't test them, that's the reason why they are not yet committed, I've made a zip file containing the 3 AddOns ( http://krtek.gloump.net/fichiers/wow/Prat.zip ) so feel free to test it :D

Awesome! Channel Separator <3

I play in EU myself, so can't test it, but this looks iffy:

	ChatTypeGroup["OFFICER"] = {
		"CHAT_MSG_GUILD",
		"GUILD_MOTD",
	};
	ChatTypeGroup["OFFICER"] = {
		"CHAT_MSG_OFFICER",
	};

First one should be ["GUILD"], or am I off here?

Right ^^ Maybee I must return sleeping a bit :D

Thanks a lot, it's corrected

Committed to trunk after some testing.

History : sadly clear the chat Frame when changing the number of lines, but that's blizzard function, can do nothing to avoid that.
Keybindings : all is working fine
ChannelsSeparator : no menu title for Battleground option, problem when toggling the module on / off. I'll give a look at that later.

Loving Prat so far! But a small feature request, is there any chance of getting tab name completion functionality added? Tab completion from guild list, friends list and recently whispers would be great! There is already a Ace module for this http://svn.wowace.com/wowace/trunk/Tab/ but something Ace2 would be great.
