<p>Chatty implements the <code>/w</code> command that Twitch Chat
|
2015-08-10 21:25:24 +02:00
|
|
|
provides, allowing you to send private messages in chat to other users.
|
2016-04-26 21:14:25 +02:00
|
|
|
Chatty does not provide the Whisper History as on the website and is
|
|
|
|
|
only a very basic implementation in general.</p>

|

|
|
2016-04-26 21:14:25 +02:00
|
|
|
<p>The Whisper Feature is disabled by default.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>In April 2016 Twitch moved Whispers from the Group Chat servers to the
|
|
|
|
|
new AWS Twitch Chat servers. There is no additional server configuration
|
|
|
|
|
required anymore.</p>

<ul>
|
2016-04-26 21:14:25 +02:00
|
|
|
<li><strong>Whisper Enabled</strong>: Allow sending and receiving
|
|
|
|
|
Whispers. With this disabled, you won't be able to send Whispers and
|
|
|
|
|
any received Whispers will be entirely ignored.</li>
|
2015-08-10 21:25:24 +02:00
|
|
|
<li><strong>Whitelist</strong>: If enabled, only users that have the
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="help-addressbook.html">Addressbook</a> category
|
|
|
|
|
<code>whisper</code> will be able to send whispers to you.
|
|
|
|
|
Messages from other users are discarded. Alternatively you can
|
|
|
|
|
also <strong>blacklist</strong> users by adding them to the
|
|
|
|
|
<code>blockwhisper</code> category (which makes most sense with
|
|
|
|
|
the Whitelist setting disabled).<br /><br >
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In addition, you can also add users to the Ignore List by
|
|
|
|
|
right-clicking on them in chat to open the context menu and
|
|
|
|
|
choosing <code>Miscellaneous - Ignore (whisper)</code>. Unlike
|
|
|
|
|
the Blacklist or Whitelist using the Addressbook, this will not
|
|
|
|
|
completely discard the messages, but instead add them to the
|
|
|
|
|
Ignored Messages dialog and possibly output some other messages
|
|
|
|
|
about it, depending on the Ignore settings.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>Display</strong>: Changes where the whispers are
|
|
|
|
|
displayed.
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>Active Chat</strong> - Show in the chat window
|
|
|
|
|
you are currently having active in Chatty.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>One Window</strong> - Show all whispers in one
|
|
|
|
|
separate window. In that window you will be able to
|
|
|
|
|
respond to whispers by just typing <code><name>
|
|
|
|
|
<message></code> instead of having to use the
|
|
|
|
|
<code>/w</code> command. To be sure you actually provide
|
|
|
|
|
the user to send it to you can only whisper to users
|
|
|
|
|
that have already whispered to you (so e.g.
|
|
|
|
|
<code>Hey how are you? :)</code> wont't be send to the
|
|
|
|
|
user named <code>Hey</code>). The tab for collecting all
|
|
|
|
|
whispers is named <code>$[whisper]</code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>Per User</strong> - Open an extra tab for every
|
|
|
|
|
user that whispers to you. You can respond to whispers
|
|
|
|
|
by just typing the message in the tab for that user. The
|
|
|
|
|
tab will be named <code>$<username></code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
2016-04-26 21:14:25 +02:00
|
|
|
<li><strong>Auto-respond to ignored/non-whitelisted users</strong>:
|
|
|
|
|
If enabled, sends an automatic reponse to users that you have
|
|
|
|
|
ignored (or not whitelisted if you have the whitelist enabled),
|
|
|
|
|
if they whisper to you. This does not apply to messages that are
|
|
|
|
|
ignored due to the regular ignore list, just the separate user
|
|
|
|
|
ignore list (changeable through the Settings, commands or the
|
|
|
|
|
User Context Menu) or the special Addressbook categories for
|
|
|
|
|
whispers (see above).<br />
|
|
|
|
|
The message being sent is <code>[Auto-Message] This user has not
|
|
|
|
|
allowed to receive whispers from you.</code>. The message is
|
|
|
|
|
only sent once per session to each different user that whispers
|
|
|
|
|
to you and is also spam protected.</li>

<p>When the Whisper Feature is connected (<code>[W]</code> appears in the
|
|
|
|
|
titlebar) you can receive and send whispers:</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When you receive a whisper, it will be displayed depending on the
|
|
|
|
|
Display setting and will be indicated by the nickname being marked
|
|
|
|
|
like this: <code>-[name]-</code></li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When you send a whisper via
|
|
|
|
|
<code>/w <name> <message></code>, then this will be
|
|
|
|
|
indicated in chat by the nickname being marked like this:
|
|
|
|
|
<code>>>[name]</code></li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>In both cases the name is the name of the person you are talking
|
|
|
|
|
with, not your own name.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>When you click on the name, you will be able to see your
|
|
|
|
|
conversation, with your own messages marked with a asterisk in front
|
|
|
|
|
(*), which is usually used to mark action messages
|
|
|
|
|
(<code>/me</code>).</li>
