- Chat Window gets focused no matter what.

RE: [release] WLM Preview Box v1.00.01
Nice idea, nice made, I would only like to see:
  • a configurable width/height
  • make multiline messages come on one rule (replace \n by a space)
Some notes:
  • it is "Pixels", not "Pixles"! :)
  • don't use so many WSH variables: try
    code:
    new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell").RegRead("...");
    for single calls instead of spilling memory on lots of ActiveX objects. Of course, when you're reading/writing a lot of keys at once, it's better to keep just 1 creation of an ActiveX object. ;)
* Matti likes this script. :D

That would be great
The quick reply box < im looking foward to that
*minipatchou downloads
Minipatchou has an idea
How about a tabbed chats option
so you could have |user#1|user#2|Latest messages|
