Development

Current TODO List / Feature Requests

• Parse URLs into click-able links (in messages model)
• Text entry area keep focus
• Channel Nick List
  • (bug) op/voice status does not get updated in nick list for users that join after the channel is first opened
  • Orange+Tap nick in nicklist spawns query/msg
  • Tap on nick in nicklist shows dialog with buttons to query/op/voice/etc
• More highlighting options
  • ListSelector for bold/color/bold&color as highlight style, when color is selected show color list option
  • ListSelector for foreground/background of the selected highlight style only when color style
  • ListSelector for all/nick/message/"single word" for selected highlight style
  • "highlighting" should probably become its own preference "palm-group"
  • List of "words to highlight" (which always includes "my nick" special item.) do it like onConnect list from server-info
• Add loose focus marker in channel scene & query/msg scene
• Make it actually connect over EVDO. (Service) (POTENTIAL-WORKAROUND PuffTheMagic 07:31, 3 November 2009 (UTC))
• Add single nick text field to server info scene and server table in database
  • If left empty, use nick from identity scene in the cookie on connect (the "hint" text for the server nick field should explain this in a few words.)
• Tap on channel title drops down drawer with topic/etc in it
• Add highly used commands that spawn a popup for input to server-status's app menu. commands include: nick, join, msg/query, etc
• "Allow landscape" toggle in preferences, should work on all scenes, should change class of containing div on horizontal (so we can reformat items in the page via css)
• Actually use secondary and tertiary nicks if told the primary is taken
  • Make function to add characters/numbers to primary nick and try again if user failed to enter secondary/tertiary, or it already exhausted all user-entered alternates.
• Add spinner to server list scene to show "connecting" action after connect is pressed before changing the button to disconnect.
• Bookmark favorite channels in list.
• Add banner/dashboard for channel-chat messages on nick mention, but not for all messages
• Notification sound options for mention/query/whatever else spawns a banner notification
• Need a way back to the server scene from channel/query scenes. App should remain operational until last card is swiped, so should be able to get back to server scene from other open cards
