| Hail |
Pages the selected chat participant (depending on the
receiver's settings a sound/notification event is generated). If this request is delivered
successfully you will receive a confirmation. |
| Private Chat |
In normal chat mode everything is always broadcast to all
the members of your chat list. Once you're in private chat mode, your messages are only
sent to the selected chat participant. |
| Scan IP |
Scans the IP address that is currently available in the
chat input field. |
| Send Message |
You can send a message to a particular chat participant.
Depending on the receiver's settings a sound/notification event is generated). If the
message is delivered successfully you will receive a confirmation. |
| Share Chatlist |
This sends the relevant pieces of information to the
selected chat participant so that he/she can establish a connection with all your chat
list members (note that - in contrast to IRC - IPchat does not rely on a universally
visible server; IPchat is point to point and it is quite unlikely that any member of your
chat list sees all the chat participants you're communicating with). |
| Call w/ NetMeeting |
Establishes a direct connection between you and the
selected chat participant using MS NetMeeting (this works obviously only if both you and
the selected chat participant have installed a copy of MS NetMeeting;
furthermore, the extension CNF must be
associated with NetMeeting [you might have to reinstall NetMeeting if you lost or deleted
this association]). |
| Send E-mail |
If the selected chat participant has a valid e-mail entry
in his profile DynamIP starts your default e-mail client and
creates a new message addressed to the selected chat participant. |
| |
|
| Load Home Page |
If the selected chat participant has a valid URL entry in
his profile DynamIP starts your default web browser and loads
that URL. |
| Load Dynamic Home Page |
If the selected chat participant is running a web server DynamIP
starts your default web browser and loads the default page of that particular web server
(note that the letter "W" must be visible behind the IP address of the selected
chat participant for this to work; otherwise, DynamIP starts the
HTTPscanner and determines the presence of a web server). |
| Remove |
The selected chat participant is removed from your chat
list and is not allowed to rejoin, at least until you flush your chat list. Note that this
exclusion is only temporary and specific to the particular IP address. The IP address is
not written to the IPDB file. |
| Chatlist |
| Rescan IP |
Resets the chat engine and rescans all your current chat
participants and the IP address ranges as specified in your IPDB file. |
| Flush Chatlist |
Resets the chat engine and reinitializes your chat list.
This might be a useful command if your chat engine gets tangled up (e.g. your own
handle/IP has dropped out of your chat list). |
| Distribute Chatlist |
Shares your chat list with all your chat participants (see
also Share Chatlist). |
| Add to IPDB |
Adds all current chat participants to the IPDB file. If a
participant's IP address falls in a range that is already being scanned then this
particular participant is not added. |
|
| Scanner |
Scans all your current chat participants and determines
who is running a web server. "W" is added behind those IP addresses with web
servers. |
| Load Server Page |
DynamIP starts your default web browser and loads your
Local Server page (which contains the results of a previous HTTPscan). |
| Sleep |
Toggles SLEEP mode (all your chat participants are
informed accordingly). In SLEEP mode, DynamIP does not accept
NetMeeting requests. |
| IPchat OFF |
Shuts down the IPchat engine. |
