Prat 3.0

Version: 3.9.54

by: lucifercatnip, humfras, MysticalOS, pompachomp, sylvanaar

Prat is a chat addon framework, and collection. It consists of 30+ modules which each add some functionality to the WoW chat interface. There is literally a module for just about everything chat related. While large in size, i have been working to keep the runtime memory usage down, and eliminate the costs of the unused modules without littering the addon directory with a slew of folders.

For the options menu, type "/prat", or if you have a broker host mod installed you will get a launcher icon.

You control the load behavior of modules via the module control screen. You have 3 choices "Don't load", "Disabled", and "Enabled"

You can report any bugs you find here:

http://www.wowace.com/projects/prat-3-0/tickets/

Prat has just about every feature you can think of, and then some. Really. When I get some more time, I'll try and put together a full list (Even I have lost count)

(Thanks to Dreamsight for this partial list)

* Change arrows, buttons, mouse scroll for chat scroll, scroll speed
* you can add color per channel, color per lvl, color per class
* timestamps
* timestamp color
* whether to show timestamp (what format the timestamp should be in)
* whether to show players lvl
* you can select the option for channel "stickys" (last channel you used you auto use when hitting enter, that sort of thing – or last thing someone said)
* change the looks of the chat's editbox - as well as where it appears (you can even undock it and move it to where you'd like it to be)
* chat fading, fading delay
* You can change the font to a list of fonts, add an outline to it, monochrome it (if you don’t mind messing with files a bit you could prolly even add other fonts to that list)
* change the chat frame/chat box appearance
* set Chat history
* set channel abbreviations
* set brackets and color(or something instead of brackets)round player/lvl
* alt invite option (press keyboard “alt” button and click on the player’s name to auto inv them)
* raid icon
* invite links
* info keeping
* url copying
* full chat copying + options (html,bbcode, plain, forum) + copy button
* allows pop-up msgs
* enables tell target /tt
* Alias options
* altnames options
* you can enable/disable all prat modules - dont have to have the ones you dont use running
* change chat sounds (incoming and outgoing as well as per channel
* acheivement info, and clickable links to say "grats"

For those interested:

There is an additional folder Prat-3.0_HighCPUUsageModules.

Note: These features use CPU, so they have been placed in a special folder so that is 100% clear.

What are your editbox settings? What do you have Attach set to? TOP?

I have it floating, but locked just above a KGPanel border around my chatbox.

EDIT: I see that having it set to top works as I wanted it.

Thanks for your help.

Ketua Premium Member Forum posts: 38 File comments: 31 Uploads: 0	Greetings, I have to say I absolutely love this addon, but recently I've hit a bit of an issue due to my guild officers altering the way they track alts. They used to use '<name>'s alt' in Officer notes so the Alt Names module would grab them for me. But recently they started using 'Alt - <name>' in public notes instead. We're a 25 man raiding guild with almost 100 ACTUAL members and almost every member has 3-5 guilded alts. So the recent change by them has made it nearly impossible to keep up with who's who. Is there anyway you could add 'Alt - <name>' to be auto added into AltNames, or give me an idea on how to manually edit the .lua so I can change it from recognizing '<name>'s alt' to 'Alt - <name>' ?

phaned A Defias Bandit Forum posts: 2 File comments: 27 Uploads: 0	I am having a similar problem to what a poster below had. I have a number of tabs set up with my general window, whisper and guild chat. I have my edit box anchored to the top. Occasionally when I click on a tab the edit box comes up rather than it going to the tab I am trying to click. I have never had this problem before and it is quite frustrating.

Dogwoogle A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	Hi, first of all thanks for this awesome addon i've been using it for ages . I'm here to ask some help about a problem i encountered when trying to install an "all-in-one" interface ( i uninstalled it very quick tho ) : here's my issue. I can't see rolls on chat frame anymore, i just see the result (who won the roll), for exemple : Player won [object] - 38 (need) I can't see who picked up "greed" or "need". Is there a Prat filter that have been enabled in the "all-in-one" interface that i need to disable to see rolls again ? Sorry for my poor english and thanks for any help

Hello again.

I was wondering if it was possible to replace realid names with character names? Instead of John Smith has come online, it would say Charactername-characterserver has come online.

Very useful for fraps. Also, phanxChat already has this feature, however they are limited in terms of cosmetic editing.

I'm not too familiar with LUA (actually, I have no experience with LUA), but it looks as if the code below from pChat is the realid replacement part. I'm sure it should be somewhat easy to implement into prat.

Code:

local playerRealm = GetRealmName()

hooksecurefunc("ChatEdit_ParseText", function(editBox)
	if not editBox.autoCompleteParams then
		local text = editBox:GetText()
		local command = text:match("^(/[^%s]+) ")
		if command == "/tt" or command == "/wt" then
			if UnitExists("target") and UnitIsPlayer("target") and (UnitIsFriend("player", "target") or UnitIsCharmed("target")) then
				local targetName, targetRealm = UnitName("target")
				if targetRealm and targetRealm ~= "" and targetRealm ~= playerRealm then
					targetName = string.format("%s-%s", targetName, targetRealm)
				end
				editBox:SetAttribute("chatType", "WHISPER")
				editBox:SetAttribute("tellTarget", targetName)
				editBox:SetText(text:match("^/[tw]t (.*)"))
				ChatEdit_UpdateHeader(editBox)
			end
		end
	end
end)

Just questions! 1) How do I return the brackets around items and names? For example the brackets that are around an achievement, a player name when you get the message they logged on, or an item. 2) My text seems very.. dull, as if something is keeping it from being as bright as vanilla.

It used to be in Prat 2.0, I don't remember why I took it out.

Anyhow, the API it used was :SetSpacing() for example

Code:

ChatFrame1:SetSpacing(space)
