Shoutbox

This is something that was requested that I decided to work on.

Basically: 

1. copy some RTF (Rich Text Format) text from eg word, wordpad or script editor
   
2. goto a convo a type /rtf

Watch the magic  

If you find any bugs etc, let me know, ideally sending me the rtf files which cause problems.  I know there are problems atm, but for basic text colouring and formating it should work

Don't try sending an image as it will likely just kill WLM, I don't extract them out yet.

Changelog:

0.2 - First Public Release
0.3

• Fixed bug pointed out by Mattike
  
• Word rtf now doesn't cause script error, but still isn't perfect

• Misc rtf cleanups

0.3.1 - Current Release

• Added menu item

"The Script has been imported but failed to start."

Debug:
Error: '/' wordt verwacht (code: -2146827276)
       File: RTF Tools.js. Line: 49.

wordt verwacht = is expected

When uncheckin, apply and restart the script in script preferences:
"Couldn't start script "RTF Tools 0.2". The script may be defective or you may not have the proper privileges to run scripts."

Seems like he forgot to end his RegExp's. Replace lines 49 and 50 with:

code:

---

rtfData = rtfData.replace(/\\{/,"{");   
rtfData = rtfData.replace(/\\}/,"}");

Wonderful work there, Dempsey! I tried it with some copied text from WordPad and the debugger doesn't lie: it works! However, my Office Word 2007 seems to make things a lot more difficult, it doesn't recognize it. (line 86 "var sColourTbl = rtfData.match(/\\colortbl(.+)\}/)[1];" fails).

I changed it so it actually returns the text, this is really useful!

Hint: add the command to Plus!' commands list!

Yeh, it looks great:
