There is one critical thing to note about this plugin: without the __module_name__ and other symbols, xchat will crash violently and might even require a reboot, even on a Linux workstation. I do not know if this is purposeful or not, but be warned.
The plugin uses a callback that fires every 120 seconds and checks for a specific user. It can be disabled using the "/stop" command from xchat, or the messages can be removed (but the callback will still fire) by removing 'long' from the notify list.
Have a lot of fun....
