Can't wait for the "Don't close on ESC" to return. Annoying when I want to keep my windows up. But GREAT work! Love it!

There used to be a way to remove the chat beep. I would love to have this re-implemented.

I also miss the tabbed chat window. If there is a way to get both of these back I'd be so happy.

Yes its missing tabs, I also notice the chat screen, and options screen are totally transparent(as in see through) I like the old chat boxes, as they were resizeable, and also darker so they were easier to see. I get that this is just a beta build just saying, very nice work with the mod. Alot of the coders have impressed me most of my mods I like using are updated already.

Again to make sure everybody knows, tabs are there but you need to group your windows manually until the auto tab function is implemented. You do this by holding shift and dragging one window ontop of another.

As for your problems with resizing, hold shift and drag the lower right corner you can resize the window. And as for your chat window maybe check to see if there's something with the fade option.

History data isn't compatible no sorry. I didn't wipe the data, I am just using new saved variables to avoid conflicts.

They are coming back. I didn't have time to get it running correctly for the patch so I took it out. You can tab manually though by holding down the shift key while dragging windows on top of each other :-).

But yeah. Thanks for everyone's patience and understanding that this is still in development and may contain bugs and still be lacking all of its features.
