I was curious if it is possible to implement a simple messenger feature into MUSHclient? This has nothing to do with enabling MUSHclient to use MSN, Yahoo or the like.

The idea is to catch strings like: "Nick pages:" and "In a page-pose, Nick". These would be then work like an IM window, allowing pages (and possibly whispers) to be put in their own window. This would make it easier to keep track of numerous page/whisper conversations. Each window would be a conversation with one other user. This would work via the main world (unlike the Chat plugin) and help 'unspam' the main window.

Just an idea :)

You can, up to a point.

Make a trigger that matches on "* pages: *" or similar, check "omit from output" and "send to notepad". Then you can send the text to a notepad window, thus separating the pages from normal output.

However the problem is that the notepad window does not have an input area.

This has been discussed at length recently, read this thread:
