message formatting.

a la zephyr

@style[text]

style           does                 alias
@bold           Bold                 @b
@center         Centered text        @c
@huge           Huge text	     
@italic         Italicized           @i
@large          large text
@plain          Normal text
@right          Right aligned text
@small          Small text

any bracketing tags can be used in place of [].
styles can be imbeded ad infinitum

just a thought of course this means @ needs to be escaped if it wants to be
displayed. but a smart parser should realize if there is no container tag,
then no message formatting is to take place, and leave the @ alone

I realize a lot of people would probably want HTML style formatting, I don't
see why both couldn't be implemented. Of course it's entirely up to the
client.
