Yet Another Nickname Plugin

Yanp is a simple bukkit plugin to customize the display name of a player. There is one command:

\nick [nickname]

To set a nickname:

\nick A wonderful nickname

There is a limitation of 3-20 characters without counting color codes. To delete a nickname:

\nick

There is not config file yet. Nicknames are registered in the file nick.yml

Permission

yanp.nick:
    description: Allow to set or delete nickname
    default: true

Version 0.9

This version is working but a player can set whatever he wants as nickname

Version 1.x

Deny duplicate nickname

Deny nicknames that equal a player name logged: * Deny when a player wants to set a nickname which is another logged player's name (colored or not) * Remove a player nickname when a player with the same name logs in

Command "Who has <nickname/player>?" \nick <a used nickname>

Version 1.3

For 1.7.6+ only (should be ready for 1.8)

Allow when a player wants to set a nickname which is another logged player's name (colored or not)

Tested with 2 players, any feedback is welcome :-)
