Just a simple hilightcatcher I wrote for some people on #zomgwtfbbq ;_) might be useful to more people, I guess.

Usage:

/hilights on - enables hilightcatching, will send a copy of every message containing your nick to a custom window.
/hilights off - disables hilightcatching.

May you accidentally close the window while the hilightcatcher is on, don't worry, it'll pop up again next time you're hilighted, unless you disable it first ;_)

I'd say it's pretty foolproof, but obviously mother nature will now feel challanged to create a better fool ;_)
