is it possible that nick colorization doesnt work when you have the setting "timestamp on " with bitchx and ...maybe can i change something to make it work?

I can't see immediately why that would cause a problem. I assume you understand that I parse log files and strip any color formats put in by the particular IRC client? The colors you see come from the CSS files, and in particular the nick colors come from the nick colorization XML file (see http://irclog-xml.sourceforge.net/examples.html in case you don't understand)
Ok, baring that I would guess there may be a problem with my parser for BitchX. Send me a compressed log file and I'll take a look and fix the problem.

I took a look at BitchX a bit. It doesn't look like there is a "standard" way to enable timestamps. My impression is you can customize BitchX to include timestamps, but that this customization is up to you. In clients like Mirc and Xchat, you simply turn timestamps on or off. The point is that for BitchX the timestamp format is variable, whereas on the other clients it is not. I'd rather not try to figure out all the myriad formats people could use in BitchX, and just support the default format. You can always login to the irc server with two different clients and use one for logging. Mel might work nicely for that. Or, you can tweak IRCLog::Parsers::bitchx

even though i thought the same thing once (at first the only info i could find on timestamps was custom formatting of different msg types), there is actually a /set timestamp on option, which works right out of the box in a standard way, if i understand correctly.

1) does the colorization work if you turn off time stamping?
2) which version of BitchX are you using
yes it works if timestamp is set to off ...my bitchx version is BitchX-1.0c19
i also use cypress ..but i tested it with and without cypress and with default settings of bitchx....it only works when timestamp is set to off ..i will send the logs and a description of my settings
