New Feature: Now intelligently displays Hunter pets experience gains too!
I'm sure there are a lot of (other) players out there who love the minimalistic look of an interface, but still want some minor conveniences of those more flashy mods.
That's where 'XP Gain Notify' comes in. The name is big, but the mod is small, in size and functionality. In fact, the ONLY thing this mod does is display a chat message whenever you receive experience.
The original versions of this addon didn't contain any options at all, but the most recent ones contain a console driven method of changing the most asked for things. As of now, you can change the chatframe the message is displayed to, and you can also manually send to yourself (or your party) the amount of XP you require to level up.
Like I said. Minimalistic. You either like it or you don't.
A note to everyone though: I'm not a "professional" with the WoW Addon code. I learned what I know from looking at other addons. I may or may not use bad coding practices that other authors would frown upon. However, this addon has lasted the test of time. It has lasted through 3-4 WoW patches and none of them have broken it yet, so I figure it should last indefinitely.
Update: The Cataclysm patch finally proved me false. The fix was simple though.
If you have any errors, please post a comment letting me know. I'll try to roll out a fix ASAP.
Oh, and I know the screenshot is a little out of date. The current version is a tiny bit different, but it's still the same information; just organized differently.

Everything after this point is deprecated.
I removed this functionality to speed up the time it took to prepare a fix for Cataclysm. Other than that, works fine. Sorry about any inconvenience.
Chat commands:- /xgn # -- Replace # with a number 1-9 and it will display a test message showing you which chatframe you've changed it to.
- /xgn self -- Reports 'XP Needed to level' to yourself. (Not visible by anyone else)
- /xgn party -- Reports 'XP Needed to level' to party.
