  • File
    • Backup Online
      • Exports the online list to a local file, using either TXT formatting, INI formatting, or as a CSV file.
    • Import Online
      • Imports a list of names and merges it into the current list, needs to be designed to autodetect the type of file being imported and making an educated guess on the contents.

    • Connect To Furcadia [ALT F2]
      • Launches the client in Character Selection Mode. Also present on the menu selections when clicking on Furres or Dreams.

    • Exit [ALT F4]
      • Exits the program completely, also present on the right-click menu on the notification icon. (AKA Clock Tray Icon.)

 

  • Edit
    • Furre
      • Add New Furre [CTRL A]
        • Brings up the dialog to add a new Furre manually into the list.
      • Add To Pounce
        • Adds a Furre who is not in the list, AKA an Unknown Furre. Not available when a Known Furre is selected.
      • Edit Furre [CTRL E]
        • Edit's a Furre in the list. Menu selection is not available when an Unknown Furre is selected. CTRL+E still works, but you won't cause the furre to become a member of your list, this is to permit re-arranging your list if need be.
      • Remove Furre
        • Removes a Furre from your list. Prompts you if the name is a permanent member of the list, otherwise removes the name from the list.
    • Dream
      • Add New Dream
        • Brings up the dialog to add a new dream to the list.
      • Add To Pounce
        • Adds a visited dream to the list, not available if it's a bookmarked or :titled dream.
      • Edit Dream [CTRL E]
        • Edit's a dream entry in the list. Menu selection is not available when a non-bookmarked dream is selected, however, CTRL+E works, just won't make the selection a member of the list.
      • Remove Dream
        • Removes a dream entry, prompts you if it's a bookmarked dream.
    • Group
      • Add New Group
        • Adds a new group to the tree.
      • Edit Group
        • Edits the name of the group.
      • Remove Group
        • Removes a group from the tree, prompts you to either abort that, delete all members of the group, or move them all to the root of the system.

 

  • Actions
    • Whisper As [CTRL W]
      • Multiplexed entry in the menu, if you're on a Furre, it will say Whisper As, if you're on a dream, will say Go To Dream As. There is a secondary accelerator entry CTRL G which will do a Go To Dream As, but neither one is implemented at this point. It needs tinkering.
      • There are submenu's in this entry which will contain, in addition to the list of Alts that are connected, an entry to rescan for clients, and a Connect To Furcadia entry.
    • History [CTRL H]
      • If on a Furre, will open the history for that entry. If there's no file for the open to work with, ie no history, you will get a prompt about it missing.
    • Ignore
      • Sends an Ignore <name> to the client. Pounce has no idea if the name is already ignored, and the client(s) will toggle the ignore action on the name.

 

  • Show - Toggles to control what you see in the list.
    • Online Furres - Shows Furres who are online.
    • Offline Furres - Shows Furres who are offline.
    • Unknown Furres - Shows Furres who are not in the list.

    • Uploaded Dreams - Shows dreams which are uploaded.
    • Offline Dreams - Shows dreams which are offline.
    • Bookmarked Dreams - Shows dreams which are bookmarked.
    • Visited Dreams - Shows dreams you've visited and are not bookmarked.
    • Titled Dreams
      • This requires a bit more. As far as I'm concerned, the Dream Name is the uploaders name, so the extra I've always called the "Dream Title", so furc://dreamname:dreamtitle/. As long as you enter just the dream name into the list, if the dream is uploaded with a title, and this is enabled, you will see two entries for the dream, your entry, and the automatically generated titled entry.

    • Sounds On - Turns the sounds generator on or off.
    • View Notes
      • Until I get custom paint working for entries in the tree, I'm using the | to split the name from the notes. When I get custom paint working, most likely I'll also get mouseover working so you can see the full entry without having to edit the entry.

 

  • Notify
    • Furre Online - Sends notifications of someone coming online to connected clients.
    • Furre Offline - Sends notifications of someone going offline.
    • Dream Uploaded - Sends notifications of a dream becoming available to the clients. Client currently does not display anything, ...
    • Dream Unloaded - Sends notifications of a dream going offline.
    • Include Group
      • Includes the group in the message sent to the client in the form of [group] added to the name. Fatal flaw, client does the generation of making the name clickable, will cause the name to reflect the group as part of the name.
    • Exclude Temporaries
      • Does not work as I expected, will need to think about this. The purpose was to include or exclude temporary names and dreams from being sent to the client so they are not displayed. Seeing as the message includes a prefix that states the status of the name, this is wasted, unless I modify the core of the sending function.

    • Notify Target
      • This will bring up a  dialog which will permit controlling which clients get notification messages. The thought on this is that you can specify a specific client to get the notifications. There will also be options to notify the first client found in the list of clients, or first client connected, and/or if the specified target name is not connected.
    • Query Speed - For setting how slow to query the server from base query speed allowed by the server.
      • Full Speed - Run at full speed.
      • Half Speed - Run at 1/2 speed.
      • Quarter Speed - Run at 1/4 speed.
      • Dead Slow - Run at 1/10 speed.

 

  • Help
    • Show Menu
      • Means to show or hide the main menu bar in the program, menu bar always available with the Menu button on the toolbar.
    • Test Stuff
      • Temporary placeholder for when I need to install test routines.
    • Set Alarm
      • Have no idea why I put this here.
    • Set Silent Time
      • Likewise as the above.
