Can minetest include colored chat?
Maybe you chose your color in the menu and if you chat in-game, your chat tag would be colored the color you chose?:

<MeMeandMe2>Hello World!
<MeMeandMe3>I am not called world!!!!
*** MeMeandMe3 left the game
<MeMeandMe2>it was an example

Yes, Minetest supports colored chat - however by default color isn't used to make it less distracting. You can make a mod to add colored nicks:

Thank you so much! You have a lot of useful info that I did not know about in your 'lua_api.txt'!
