| Nick, I don't think your suggestion will work. Colouring triggers suffer from the same 'lag' that gag triggers do. There have been plenty of times I've seen certain lines in their original colour before the line is completely received, after which the trigger kicks in and changes the colour.
Using the same foreground and background colours by default, and then using colour triggers to "white-list" all approved lines... that sounds insanely complex, and would be error prone due to text with no 'newline', which would be "invisible" forever. |

Constantly proving I don't know what I am doing...

| It doesn't matter if there is a lag, the line will be invisible until it is recoloured correctly (ie. black on black will be the default, *before* a trigger gets to it). Then the trigger changes it back to "normal" colours.
As for the initial prompts, the trigger could be disabled until you got past them - or you could have something that detects the "welcome" screen - after your name/password, and then changes the foreground/background colour to black on black. Depends on how much the spam is annoying you. :) |

Is there no way to inhibit redraw of the window between the time new text arrives and the time triggers get done processing?
You can use the new behaviour for OnPluginPacketReceived to pre-process packets before they hit the main MUSHclient incoming text handler. There it would be possible to totally omit certain types of lines, as if they had never arrived. |
