    This works awesomely on 1.2.4-R1. Dear author, could you please add a reload command? It would be REALLY helpful as I like my tips to be correctly arranged on the screen so I write the tip, see how it displays, then go back and modify it to look better. For example, if it takes 4 lines on the screen but the 4th line is just one word, I re-word it to make it 1 word shorter so it only takes 3 lines. Plus sometimes I mess up the color codes (lol) and have to restart the whole server to fix it. Thanks for an amazing plugin! :D

    Simple request, make the colour tags more greedy. They're super sensitive. Just merely allow lowercase colours. i.e %f doesn't work, but %F does.
