Automatically Join Servers And Channels On Startup: This option will connect you to all servers and channels in your channel list whenever mirc starts.
Remove Entry From Completed List When Moved To New Directory: Autoget allows you to move files to a new directory from within Autoget, more on this later. This option when enabled will remove the files from the completed list once you have moved them. This is optional so you can reference which files have actually completed even after moving them.
Use Fast My List Search For OmeNServE Users: If you're using OmeNServE and you have a massive list this option will give you the ability to forego the little extras of the slow search and just give you the raw results right from your SDFiles.txt file. The files are still drag and drop capable but you won't see any ::INFO:: about the file and you'll see the whole path instead of just the filename. Since this option disables the search result cap and is generally more difficult to read it's only recommended for people who know what they are doing. If you have this enabled and you search for *.mp3 in a list of 80,000 files, well, you might as well forget about any transfers you had in progress and go out for lunch.
Attempt To Determine Path From Lists When Pasting: If a list is organized by directory and you include the line showing the directory information when you paste, Autoget will assign the paster files a "move to" path to match the one in the list. This is primarily used when people have poorly named files in well named folders. For example: c:\Artist - Album\track01.mp3. Ordinarily you'd download this file and come back to it later with no idea what it is. But using Autoget you can assign a foldername to the file and create that folder and move the file there so you can keep track of what's what.
Remove Underscores From Filenames When Moving: Pretty self-explanatory, when you use Autoget to move your completed files, this option lets you change all the underscores in the filename to spaces. The default behavior (this option disabled) is to rename the file to whatever it was when you initially added it. So if the file has spaces in the person's list, but they send it with the spaces changed to underscores, Autoget will change the underscores back to spaces. With this option checked, it will ALWAYS change underscores to spaces.
Automatically Maximize Autoget Main Dialog: This simply maximizes the autoget dialog by default.
Automatically Close Message Windows: When you search a dozen channels at once for something completely non-specific like *.mp3 you'll get flooded with message windows containing the results. With this option enabled (as it is by default) Autoget will automatically close the windows of all incoming search results. Why would you want to disable this you might ask? Well, if you're talking to anyone while you're searching this might close the window you're typing in, so I left it as an option.
Halt Incoming MP3 CTCP Data: If you don't already have another script to do it for you, you can check this option to filter the MP3 CTCP messages sent to channels when people randomly play files to channels.
Echo Messages To The Status Window: Disables all non-essential status messages.
Buffer Requests From Search Window For Custom Channels: When you double-click a file in the search page which is directed to a server with a custom download method, it is buffered by default. Disabling this option will force the file to be requested instead. But be careful, there is no protection against flooding or violating any rules in the channel with this options disabled.
Automatically Request Files When Added To Waiting: This option will cause one file per person to be requested whenever you add files to the waiting list in Autoget. If you don't have this checked, Autoget will still eventually request the files automatically. But it might take a while.
Strictly Adhere To Set Channels When Requesting: By default Autoget will work in all channels. But sometimes it can get confused as to where to send requests. If this happens, this option becomes necessary for it to figure out where a person is actually serving and where they are just hanging out.
Periodically Check Status Of Queued Files: For added reliability or just to keep your queue status updated in the main dialog, you can check your queue status every 30 minutes by checking this option. Even before this version was released there were people getting up in arms about too many -que checks, so you should probably use this option sparingly.
/who on channel join: If you aren't on many large channels this is a good way to make sure your internal address list gets filled automatically when you join a channel so you don't have any problems getting the address of a user while waiting for the internal address list to fill as messages are sent to the channel.
