| So, say you have something like this:
Telepathy[Bob] Hello!
You want the Telepathy[Bob] part to be a certain color.
You want everything after Telepathy[Bob] to be a different color.
And, Bob isn't the only player so you're matching any player there.
I accomplished the first part with ^(Telepathy\[.*\]) but I am unsure how I can highlight the rest of the message (which can be any text) a different color. | | Top |

| Make two triggers, like this:
<triggers>
<trigger
custom_colour="3"
enabled="y"
keep_evaluating="y"
match="^(Telepathy[.*]).*$"
regexp="y"
sequence="50"
>
</trigger>
<trigger
custom_colour="2"
enabled="y"
match="^(Telepathy[.*])"
regexp="y"
sequence="100"
>
</trigger>
</triggers>
The first trigger (with the lower sequence number, and "keep evaluating" checked) colours the whole line.
The second trigger colours the Telepathy[someone] part, so that change the colours back.
