Implementing this feature is not possible now or in the foreseeable future

Ok i think it would be a great feature to have a link embedder in the output window for example someone posts a youtube link instead of having to click the link it shows the video and you just press play and it pops out a little mini window to watch the video

DivineTraveller	For the time being, you can use a browser control instead of an output control. This would allow you to embed things, as well as have fancier-looking chat (via Javascript).

Lummox JR	There are libraries and demos that can do link conversion already. I believe they're under the text tag. This isn't really something that would be very feasible to work into the software as a standard feature though.
