@@ -13,3 +13,10 @@ If you want to autorun the script, place the script in or simlink to ~/.irssi/sc
 There is a basic install script, just run:
 ./install
 This install script creates the folder ~/.irssi/scripts/autorun if it doesn't exist and simlinks the script to start automatically.
+
+Priority alerts for public messages:
+Create a file at ~/.irssi/priority_messages (one regex per line, # comments allowed).
+Example pattern: ^\S+-\d+ is requesting assistance\.$
+Matching public messages will use priority_sound_command instead of pub_sound_command.
+Use /set priority_messages_file to change the file path if needed.
+Reload the regex file with: /sound priority_reload
