Question Chat Window

Hi all, I was wondering if any one could help me with some code to create a Chat Window?

I'm currently working on a AddOn that need to communicate with other user's via a chat channel, but the user don't need to see the information that is send, so would like for it to create a Chat Window to make the Channel in, this way the user wont get spammed in their main chat's.

an ex. (THIS DOSN'T WORK)
AddChatWindow("AddOnName");

I don't think you need to create a new Chat Tab just to join an invisible channel for sending addon messages.

Join the channel without adding it to any chat tab and addons can still parse it without the user seeing it unless they manually tell the chat tab to display messages from the new channel.
