Example of Suggested Enable/Disable of Notify on Activity (25.45 KB, image/gif)

Description Will Robertson 2006-11-20 20:40:33 UTC
I would like to be able to mark certain channels to notify me on ANY chat.

paticularly I'd like the notify to be in the form of the window blinking on my Window List (I think that's the urgent hint that does that) in addition to the notification popup with the text. I assume this might be configurable, so that you can choose which or both to have happen.

Thanks,
Will

This RFE was already proposed before but was rejected.
I'm not against it but we should find a way to make this easily configurable while keeping a clean and easy user interface.
If you have idea, it's welcome.

It might be nice to keep this open in case someone wants to try to write a quick plugin -- all he wants is the urgency hint, which should take about 3 minutes to do.

I'm not planning to include it in the main distribution though.

Attached is an image of how I would like to use it. You could also add an option in the notification plugin preferences to enable the ability for the checkmark if you wanted to disable it by default.

Thanks,
Will

I've recently done a re-attempt at this task. However I was unable to find any documentation on Plugin Development. If one of you can hit me up on Freenode (Kassah), I'd love to figure this out.

Thanks,
Will

Hi, you might like to look at notification plugin, and at "highlight" option under "IRC preferences" .
Comment 7 André Klapper 2019-02-23 02:52:13 UTC
xchat-gnome is not under active development anymore.
Its codebase has been archived:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/xchat-gnome/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather reactivate the project
to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the
responsibility for active development again.
You may want to switch to Hexchat (or another IRC client that suits you).
