colorize perl script for xchat. Lets you colorize nicks that are in the middle of messages. No longer online, so I snagged this copy from archive.org before it went away completely.

?, help - Display this help message
Enable/Disabling Colorization
enable - Enable colorizing
disable - Disable colorizing
Colorizing Schemes
all - Colorize message and embedded nicks in message
message - Colorize message only
nicks - Colorize embedded nicks only
Example. To set colorization scheme to only colorize embedded nicks:
/colorize nicks
Note that you only need to type the first letter of the option. So the
following command will also set the scheme to colorize just nicks:
/colorize n

=head1 NAME
colorize.pl - Colorize messages and/or embedded nicks with corresponding
colors.
=head1 VERSION
This documentation refers to colorize.pl version 0.0.3.
=head1 INSTALLATION
Short answer:
Put this file in your Xchat data directory (e.g. ~/.xchat2 on
linux). Make sure you've turned on colored nick names in your preferences.
Long answer:
The following is from http://www.xchat.org/faq/#q218
18. How do I auto-load scripts at startup?
You just have to place the scripts into XChat's data directory. XChat will
auto-load scripts if they have the right extension .e.g If a filename ends in
.pl, it will be loaded as a Perl script. This data directory is different on
each platform:
Windows
It depends on your version of Windows and where it stores the Application Data
folder. On Windows XP it is usually:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\X-Chat 2\
UNIX
~/.xchat2/ Where "~" represents your home directory i.e.: $HOME/.xchat2/
=head1 USAGE
/colorize [OPTION]
If no option is given, the default action is to show the current settings.
?, help - Display this help message
Enable/Disabling Colorization

Colorizing Schemes
all - Colorize message and embedded nicks in message
message - Colorize message only
nicks - Colorize embedded nicks only
Example. To set colorization scheme to only colorize embedded nicks:
/colorize nicks
Note that you only need to type the first letter of the option. So the
following command will also set the scheme to colorize just nicks:
/colorize n
=head1 CONFIGURATION
You can customize the type and color of the brackets that surround the
nick names. The default is to not have any surrounding brackets.
To change the bracket type and color, go to the section labeled
"BRACKET SETTINGS" towards the top of the script and edit the three
variables:
my $BRACKET_COLOR = "";
my $LEFT_BRACKET_STYLE = '';
my $RIGHT_BRACKET_STYLE = '';
You can use the %color hash defined at the top of the script for defining
$BRACKET_COLOR. For example, to set the bracket color to green, set
the following:
my $BRACKET_COLOR = $color{green};
The brackets can be any characters you want, you are not limited to
the usual '<' and '>'. For example, to set the bracket type to use
parentheses, set the following:
my $LEFT_BRACKET_STYLE = '(';
my $RIGHT_BRACKET_STYLE = ')';
=head1 INCOMPATIBILITIES
Xchat 2.0.8 or above is required to load this plugin.
=head1 BUGS AND LIMITATIONS
Please report any bugs you find to the author.
This version only colorizes messages sent by other users. It does not
colorize messages sent by you or for you.
Patches welcome. :-)
