AS: 'process outgoing chat message' is called by 'send' which can cause dead loops about colloquy HOT 5 CLOSED

"There are a couple of possible solutions to this problem, but I would suggest an optional extra parameter for 'send' which would ensure that 'process outgoing chat message' does not get called. "

I would recommend the opposite - by default, use the Send that does NOT call the plugin handlers. If this error exists in a script, it is because the author is careless; the odds are not good that the author will think to include the optional parameter.

I'd suggest "send chatView message msgchars with plugins" or something to that effect. If this parameter does not exist, it defaults to false and no plugin handlers will be called.

In addition, more often than not, the script author does not want or need the text to be post-processed.
