[1.32] Feature Request - Customisable taskbar activity status indicator
 
Something that's been mentioned a few times during the initial wish list, but not sure whether there was ever an indication as to whether it might be on the feature list or not.

A lot of the time I'll have CMUD open in the background running menial chores (simple hunting, questing, stocking shops etc) or just idling. As I'm doing this obviously there's game output which changes the CMUD icon in the taskbar from orange/blue to green/blue. Most of this I don't need or want to read. I'd really like to be able to tell CMUD to wait for specific input (e.g. if health<50% then that's a reason to flag activity, or if I receive a tell from an immortal) - even better would be to have a way to pick the colour (ansi) and/or whether it flashes (0/1).

#TR {(%w) tells you: (*)} {#IF (%ismember(%1, @imms)) {#NOOP %taskbaricon(red, 1)}}

I'd guess this would be fairly simple to implement(?) and it'd really be a nice feature to help people who run scripts in the background.

Please ;)

Yep, it's on the list. I just can't promise when it will be added.

Cheers for confirming ;)

Yes, this would be really nice! Definately a reason to switch from zMUD IMO.
