EDIT:
Toast Message v. 1.3
by AberNStein
what's new:
- menu says ON or OFF depending on the script's state
- strips format codes from toasts
other features:
- stores the state in registry
- separate registry key for each user
- if toast message is on at sign-in it will toast to let you know
- /toastmsg is case-insensitive
- toasts when you receive a message in a convo that's not in focus
- clicking the toast focuses the convo
- toggle on/off with the menu or /toastmsg
known issues
- the font in the toast is not a fixed width font. for example if your contact's name is all equals signs, then you'd have to truncate at 17 characters. so i've left it at 17. the message thankfully truncates itself.

AberNSteins Post as it is where he updates the changelog. I'll try keep up with any changes and edit this post.
My (Jiggs) original request:
ok, so, there's a script being made to stop wlm from flashing the task bar when new messages are received, and I'm really looking forward to this, but on top of that, i have a suggestion.
How about a script that shows messages received in a toast, just like the 1st message when no convo window is open yet, each time a message is received. With a menu to turn it on and off easily.
So you could turn it on, and minimize wlm and see what messages you are receiving in a toast that's easily right clicked away, or left clicked to open the convo, without the task-bar popping in front of everything.
And then, when you want to stop the toasts, u just select off in the menu in the convo windows plus menu. Is this possible?
Is it a good idea? I'd like it.
