Maybe I'm just missing something, but is it possible to change the text of the chat frames with this addon? I didn't see anything in the .lua but I'm hoping I just didn't see an option.

Also to change the Chat font size you can do by right clicking on a tab.

you can also right click on the tab and change the background.

the option i have on you can turn off.

Code:
local hideborder                                = true
and set to false

Setting descriptions:Hideborder.
        Set to false to hide the editboxborder.
remember to read the info before posting. as i have coved everything and in detail.

if you open the readme tex it will say to open the luaa and all info can be found at the top,

but i have edited the words and uplaoding a new update

hideboxbground from Hideborder

what should i say... sorry but thats the worst Syntax ive ever seen. No tabs, sometimes to much tabs, no Semikolons ...

Code:
local origSetItemRef = SetItemRef
SetItemRef = function(link, text, button)
  local linkType = string.sub(link, 1, 6)
  if IsAltKeyDown() and linkType == "player" then
    local aname = string.match(link, "player:([^:]+)")
    InviteUnit(name)
    return nil
  end
  return origSetItemRef(link,text,button)
end
should be

Code:
local origSetItemRef = SetItemRef
SetItemRef = function(link, text, button)
  local linkType = string.sub(link, 1, 6)
  if IsAltKeyDown() and linkType == "player" then
    local name = string.match(link, "player:([^:]+)")
    InviteUnit(name)
    return nil
  end
  return origSetItemRef(link,text,button)
end
