Need help making a script - to launch a program on message receipt by messageman3 on 02-09-2008 at 04:40 PM

ok, i have a proggy which will make an LED in my laptop flash when it is launched, and a second which will shut it off again.

would it be possible to make a script which launches this program *when the convo window does not have focus* and i recieve a message; and then runs another program upon focusing again?

i have a somewhat basic knowlege of programming, and this would be amazing!

thanks in advance,
