Description

Actually i am developing a theme that partially uses scripting, and i've been noticing that if you use "^" and "halt" in some events, your highlight settings may not work, even if them are enabled.

That is correct, if you halt a message all processing of the message is halted at all levels in the client, basically ignored as never been received.

If a scripter wants to make their own output using /echo, it's their responsibility to implement all features and format necessary for that message.

/echo does provide some helps for this, e.g the -l parameter applies the highlight options to the message you want to print.
