Prat 3.0

What it does

Every Prat feature is a module of its own, and you switch off the ones you will not use. It can alert you with a popup and a sound when your name or chosen keywords show up in chat, color player names by class, level or channel, and shorten channel names.

Timestamps, line copying, clickable links, full chat search and chat history that survives between sessions are among the modules. In return it uses more memory and CPU than a minimal chat addon.

Key features

• More than 30 modules, each switched on or off separately.
