Example:
Place this:RegisterEvent("CHAT_MSG_SAY"); in the <OnLoad>/</OnLoad> section of your MyMod.xml file.
Then, have an if (event == "CHAT_MSG_SAY") then MyMod_Say(event, arg1, arg2, arg3); end line, or something like it, in the <OnEvent>/</OnEvent> section

of your MyMod.xml file.

Then, have a function like the following in your MyMod.lua file:

function MyMod_Say(event, arg1, arg2, arg3)
  PrevMsg = arg1;
  PrevPlyr = arg2;
  PrevLang = arg3;
end

"CHAT_MSG_SKILL"
Category: Player,Skill
 

Fired when some chat messages about skills are displayed.

arg1
The content of the chat message.

arg1 formats are found in Blizzard's GlobalStrings.lua. Some possibilities:

  • ERR_SKILL_UP_SI (eg. "Your skill in Cooking has increased to 221.")
"CHAT_MSG_SYSTEM"
Category: Communication
 

Fired when a system chat message (they are displayed in yellow) is received.

arg1
The content of the chat message.

arg1 formats are found in Blizzard's GlobalStrings.lua. Some possibilities:

  • ERR_LEARN_RECIPE_S (eg. "You have learned how to create a new item: Bristle Whisker Catfish.")
  • MARKED_AFK_MESSAGE (eg. "You are now AFK: Away from Keyboard")

Note: Be very careful with assuming when the event is actually sent. For example, "Quest accepted: Quest Title" is sent before the quest log updates, so at the time of the event the player's quest log does not yet contain the quest. Similarly, "Quest Title completed." is sent before the quest is removed from the quest log, so at the time of the event the player's quest log still contains the quest.

"CHAT_MSG_TARGETICONS"

Fired when a target marker is set. This is used by the chat filter, if the player is watching target markers in chat output (in the Filters right-click menu, under Other, look for Target Icons).

Some kind of number; no more is known at the time of writing. (Yes, that's a "12", not a typo for "2".)

"|Hplayer:%s|h[%s]|h sets |TInterface\\TargetingFrame\\UI-RaidTargetingIcon_%d:0|t on %s."

The other arguments are unused.

"CLOSE_INBOX_ITEM"
Category: Mail
 
"CLOSE_TABARD_FRAME"
Category: Misc
 

Fired when the guild dress frame is closed

"CLOSE_WORLD_MAP"
Category: Map
 

Supposed to fire whenever the world map is closed/hidden, though it doesn't. A workaround for this is to use "WORLD_MAP_UPDATE" to set a global variable to use elsewhere with an OnUpdate function; e.g.

local Map_Changed = false;

function MyAddon_OnEvent()
 if ( (event == "WORLD_MAP_UPDATE") and WorldMapFrame:IsVisible() ) then
  Map_Changed = true;
 end
end

function MyAddon_OnUpdate()
 if ( (Map_Changed) and not WorldMapFrame:IsVisible() ) then
  ...do this...
  Map_Changed = false;
 end
end

When the second function is called, it checks to see if the map has been opened/closed (Map_Changed), then checks to see if the map is currently open (WorldMapFrame).
The effect is a code that executes only when the map closes.
