Is there a way to include channel name with the keyword in Highlight in order to highlight in a specific channel only?

Make a custom script instead of using options.

Code:
on *:START:{ window -a @Highlights }

on *:TEXT:*:#:{
  if ($regex($1-,/\b $+ $me $+ \b/gi)) {
    echo @Highlights # -- $nick -- $time -- $1- 
    beep 3 1000
  }
}


I made this for my highlights. You just need to add an IF statement that checks if the highlight is from that specific chan

You can technically use the entry added to the highlight section with your script:

$highlight(text) will return something if text is matching any entry in the highlight section.
There is one problem with this, it's if you happen to have entries being numbers. Indeed $highlight(0) returns the number of entries in the highlight section, it doesn't check if '0' matches any of these entries.
So the solution is pretty simple:

Code:
on *:text:*:#channelforhighlight:{
  if ($1- !isnum) && ($highlight($1-) != $null) {
    echo $chan you're getting highlighted!!
  }
}


Note that 100% working code is possible but require much more code, the above is a simple solution working in almost all cases, see https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/189847 and https://forums.mirc.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=196007&page=0#Post196007
