Nick Changes
Previous Top Next
This command will open a dialog to change the nickname of the selected line.
This will open the above dialog which provides you the options of changing all of the instances of the nickname (or just the selected instances) and recording the nick change to be performed whenever you paste files from that persons list. This is useful for people who serve under one name but use a different name in their lists. For example a server named Doug|serv who makes lists with the name Doug. Autoget gives you the option to automatically change the nickname to Doug|serv whenever you paste files from Doug's list.
Nicknames are also tracked by hostmask. So whenever you request a song Autoget will first check for a person with that nickname, and if that nick isn't online it will assume the person changed their nickname and attempt to look them up by their hostmask (kinda like an ip address). If this is successful Autoget will automatically change the nickname of the person and start requesting under the new nick. If the hostname lookup fails, Autoget will give up and label the person offline.
