Since "World of Warcraft" thrives on the social aspect of the game, it's only fitting that a chat function be included. As with most of the "World of Warcraft" user interface, the chat function is customisable to an extent, but the power of the chat interface remains untapped if you use only the default interface. In comes Prat: an add-on that takes the chat function and makes it fully customisable, from choosing the font to colour-coding URLs. Prat also allows you to copy and paste chat text.
