ColorNick v2

ColorNick v2 plugin for MsgPlus!

Current version: 2.0.708

<b>Features</b>

- All features of ColorNick 1 are of course there: bold, italic, underline, gradients, single color ; instant preview of the result ; color also "says:" ...
- Now you can color what you want: only the selection, or the entire nick.
- You can color the background of the text (single color or gradient of course).
- New command /xcolortext , similar to /xcolornick but for normal text (messages).
- New "auto-coloration" feature: you set a default color/gradient in the Preferences, you enable it, and then you only have to type /xcolornick My Nickname (or /xcolortext...) to color your text without showing the dialog.
- You can use Plus! control codes with auto-coloration enabled (CTRL+B, CTRL+T, etc...)
- Standard MSN emoticons won't be altered when using a gradient effect.
- Enhanced color-codes decimator to get a less-than-129-characters-long nickname
- Save your favorite nicknames to call them back later quickly thanks to /xquicknick (quicktext-like feature).
- Imports your current nick (with colors!).
- Completely new interface.
- Internet updates.
- Import/export the config from the Preferences window.
- Actually in English, French, Dutch, Spanish, Catalan and Italian. If any translator is interested in making a localized version it's possible with language files (contact me).
- Installer/uninstaller (you can uninstall from "Add/Delete Programs"

<b>Commands</b>

/xcolornick = change your nick
/xcolortext = send colored text
/xquicknick = if a shortcut is specified, use the associated nick; else show the QuickNick dialog

/xquicknicksave = save your current nick and use the specified argument as shortcut.

/xcolornickcfg = Preferences dialog
/xcolornickabout = About... dialog
/xcolornickhelp = shows the readme file

<b>Known limitations</b>

your contacts need Messenger Plus! to see the colors.

the colors of the nickname are not those you choosed in ColorNick -> some color codes are automatically deleted to get a shorter raw nickname (< 129 characters). Try using less colors or a shorter nickname.

if an error occurs during install, please be sure you closed MSN Messenger and all word processors (like MS Word) ; do not ignore the file.

do not use custom emoticons with shortcuts "#" or "$"
