Script Idea: New Message Reminder by Chris4 on 01-31-2008 at 03:18 AM

All the time I get messages from contacts and for one reason or another, I either forget to read it or I don't hear the sound. I'm sure this happens to most people at some point. It gets very annoying :sad:.

So.. A script that, if you haven't opened the conversation after X amount of minutes after receiving a new message, will alert you (toast message, pop-up, etc.).

So, possible? Thoughts please.. :)

I think for this to be done well it would have to be done with a little bit of a cheap hack that only an advanced scripter would be able to do. You could put a child window on each chat and then be able to detect when the window gets foregrounded (using a windows notification message).  Hopefully this will inspire someone to do it because I would love to use this script.
