A few questions.

O.P. A few questions.
Okay, so I'm about to attempt a script that will be quite a challenge. But once I'm done coding it, the final result will be amazing.

But to create this script I need to expand my knowledge, so I present the following questions:

  • Is it possible to draw on the Chat window? (Using GDI+ or something.)
  • Is there any way to display a right click menu? (Anywhere, not just on a Plus! Window.)
  • Is it possible to find out what font settings the currently signed in user is using?

Thanks in advance.

Edit:
I thought I'd expand upon my request, because I kind of expect people to shrug this off as a "He's new, he doesn't know what he's doing." thread.

I'm pretty sure the first two are possible using complex introp calls (which I'm willing to learn how to do, because this project is worth it.)

But, looking through the scripting documentation it appears that the font settings aren't retrievable. So I'm hoping that maybe messenger stores the font in the register, and I can access it that way.

To expand on the font request a bit more: I only need the current users font, and I only need to read it. I don't need to change it.
