Use activeness on TAB use for getting nicks instead of alphabetical order.

Everyone knows the 'mis' use of the TAB key. One to much or one to less press or suddenly a new person in the channel with the same start letter of the nick :S

Not a bad idea smile

An option to choose between alphabetical NC and activity-based NC would be good though.

There are a few advanced NCs out there which will ask you for confirmation if you want to use the chosen nicknames, before completing a nickname (if two or more users have the same 2/3 letters for example). Might wanna search www.mircscripts.org or Google.

I agree. Something similar to the way the tab button works when you press it to retrieve the last nickname that sent you a private message.

There should be several options.

Alphabetical
Last active nickname
Display list inside channel window that best matches your input (ala X-Chat)
