## Using negative lookbehind and nevative lookforward regex features to make sure that non-intentional usage does not
## trigger the notifications for names. Note: Requires Perl regexp support (-P argument) to be used in grep.
notifyPattern='(?<!\w)(Edy|Edi|Eduard|Edouard|Eddie|Eddy|Enygma)(?!\w)'

## Skype 4.3 seems to include the "sender: " prefix in the actual message. Remove the prefix.
message=${message#$sender: }

## Simple TTS
#echo "Reading: $message"
#echo "$message" | festival --tts

## Alternative using pure bash
#shopt -s nocasematch; if [[ '%smessage' =~ .*(Edy)|(Eduard)|(Eddie)|(Eddy)|(Enygma).* ]]; then notify-send "$sernder mentioned you!" -i skype; fi

## Using grep
if echo "$message" | grep -iqP $notifyPattern;
then
  notify-send "$sender mentioned you on Skype!" -i skype;
  echo "$sender mentioned you on Skype!" | festival --tts;
else
  echo "not about you: ($sender) $message";
fi
