Just finished work on version 1.3 of Message Notifier. I'll release it later today, most likely, as long as it doesn't crash while I'm sleeping. ;) (I'll also do another quick check to see if the features are working as they should.) In the next version, I'll try to do some of the other features that have been requested. (ie. sound on window creation, notification until window is acknowledged, and other things dealing with accessing Trillian's windows.)

It's close! I spent a lot of last night working on it, and I think I may have it done today or tomorrow.

Alrighty, tab design is finished! I've laid out the new features I will be adding, and there will be quite a few. Here's what you have to look forward to:
- Notification based on medium. (So you can turn off detection of MSN,IRC..etc etc.)
- Option to only alert on private IRC messages. (default)
- Option to filter certain nicks on IRC. You will need to put your own nick here, because IRC messages sent out by you, are actually received by trillian as an incoming message. I figured I would expand on this to allow you to filter more than one nick. (Perhaps I should do this for the other mediums now that I think of it.
- Fixed LED's
- Blinking for the number of messages received option.
- Blinking for # of seconds, or # of times.
- Make priority sounds when certain users send messages.
- The new tabbed preferences.
Hopefully all those will make it in. :) I'm hoping to have the new version out within the week.

Hey everyone, I'm working on the next version of Message Notifier. Hopefully it won't take me too long to figure some things out. New to the next version will be: bug in the lights display will be fixed. (For me, if caps lock or another light was on, weird things would happen.) You will be able to disable IRC from being detected by the plugin. (Possibly which ever connection you choose.) An option will be introduced so that the lights will be limited to a certain number of blinks. A few people want the option to blink until the window is acknowledged, and I'll look into that, but that might come out in the version after the coming one. Right now, I'm just figuring out tabs usage so that I can reorganize the preferences, and add the other stuff.
I pretty much put this page together real quick for Message Notifier.
It's functional for giving out information, and that's pretty much it.
