Toast Message creates a toast of any message received in a chat window that isn't in focus. Great for multitasking! Only open up a convo when you need to reply! Type /toastmsg or the button on the menu to toggle on and off Toast Message. It won't toast if the conversation is on top. Clicking on a toast brings the conversation to the top! It even un-minimizes it!

what's new:
- menu says ON or OFF depending on the script's state
- strips format codes from toasts properly

other features:
- stores the state in registry
- separate registry key for each user
- if toast message is on at sign-in it will toast to let you know
- /toastmsg is case-insensitive
- toasts when you receive a message in a convo that's not in focus
- clicking the toast focuses the convo
- toggle on/off with the menu or /toastmsg

known issues:
- the font in the toast is not a fixed width font. for example if your contact's name is all equals signs, then you'd have to truncate at 17 characters. so i've left it at 17. the message thankfully truncates itself.

How to use this script:
- Make sure you have Live Messenger and Messenger Plus! Live installed.
- Download the script, open it, accept the warning and press Import.
- Click on the Messenger Plus! logo in your contactlist.
- Click on Toast Message > Toggle On / Off, to turn it on.
- Messages received in a window that isn't in focus will now show as a toast.
