Variables in Trigger Patterns
 
Is there a way to make a trigger fire when it recieves the contents of a string variable? I don't want to have to create a seperate trigger to highlight the names of all my friends, so I was hoping I could create a @Friends variable, and then a trigger to fire when it recieves one of the contents of that variable, something like,
#VAR Friends "Britanny"|"Atyr"|"Abethany"
Then
#Trigger {@Friends} {#CW blue}

This doesn't seem to work. Is it possible, or do I have to create a seperate trigger for each name?

Don't put quotes around the names in the string list.
Do place the variable's name in braces {}.

#VAR Friends {Britanny|Atyr|Abethany}
#Trigger {{@Friends}} {#CW blue}
