Nicknames

/w, /join, /invite nicknames instead of full "Firstname Lastname"

The window to maintain the list of nicknames

Description

Since the introduction of last names, whispering people by their full name annoyed me so much I decided to make "Nicknames" to solve the problem. It basically has one feature:

When you /w, /join, /invite nickname it will look up nickname in your list of nicknames,
and then automatically replaces it to /w, /join, /invite Firstname Lastname

To configure the list of nicknames, type /nicknames or /nn

You can enter series of nicknames without using the mouse by:
+ using Ctrl + N (release Ctrl before pressing N). This will act as if you clicked "New"
+ use keyboard to fill the fields, use Tab to jump to the next field
+ in the last field (Last name), use "Enter / Return" to complete the action

Alternatively, you can use the command: /nn set nickname Firstname Lastname

Development disclaimer:
This addon works with the default Carbine ChatLog. It has not been tested whether it works together with other ChatLog-replacement addons.
There will be no extra functionality implemented. The only possible reasons for an update would be "bug-fixes" or "compatibility with ChatLog-replacement addons". The theory is that some ChatLog-replacement addon will make "Nicknames" redundant in the near future.

    In chat, changes names that use too many CAPS, to lower-case version of their name. e.g. "JOHN" would become "John". Also when no capital is used, the first letter is capitalized, e.g. "john" would become "John".
