    I'm brand new to WoW addon development, and have stumbled uppon a problem I can find no answer to in any of the API documentation.

    I wish my addon to send a "notification" to the chat frame so the end user can see it, such like SpamMeNot and Bejewled does. I've sifted through the code for both of these addons, but can't work out exactly how they do it, especially Bejewled as it's obfuscated.

    Help very much appreciated.

    Never mind, found DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage.

    Using the print() function is even easier, and accomplishes the same thing.  It didn't exist when the book was first written, but it's in the default user interface now!
