[Konversation-devel] Working on highlighting

[Mikko O]

Hello,

I decided to contribute for Konversation project a bit, because it's
the first GUI IRC client for Linux I like :)

I am planning to rework highlighting code a bit:

- add new variable int m_trigger to Highlight class which defines how
highlight is triggered, replacing bool m_regexp variable
- possible triggers: my own nick, my own text, regexp, any event, any message
- this removes need for additional "highlight my own nick always setting"
- this creates flexibility for highlighting and allows mIRC style very
useful highlighting: highlight channel using red when someone is
talking, highlight channel using blue when there are joins/parts,
highlight channel using green when your nick has been mentioned

I'd like to hear any comments.

Cheers,
