Todo
===============

Features
--------
* Log viewer needs to have BBCode/HTML/Text copy modes
* Copy quirks between profiles?
* More complex quirks: by-sound
* Spy mode
* Turn @ and # links on/off?
* "Someone has friended you" notifier
* Show true bans? COMPRESS QUIT MESSAGES ON BAN
* Colour saving boxes things?
* Whowas for last seen online?
* Tab completion of two letter names
* When 'banned' make impossible to connect using timestamp banned under
* Auto download/install updates via Windows installer
* Turn memo notifications on/off from right-click menu on memos (Idea: lostGash)
* Use web connection to send offline messages in email-like fashion (Idea: ghostDunk)
* Use web connection to save profiles (Idea: ghostDunk)
* Better NickServ registering
* Spectation notices (Idea: lexicalNuance) (probly WONTFIX)
* Auto-login Nickserv
* Make toast notifications only on certain chums
* Local alisas for chums
* Don't make new windows be all in your face and shit
* Hide offline friends per group

* Implement new Lexer for the sake of everyone's sanity
* Redo PESTERCHUM: processing/redo whole msg received processing chain
* Redo text processing in general
* Redo quirk processing (use pieces from Textsub if needed)
* LET PEOPLE TURN OFF HONKING - people already rename the soundfile and such to do this manually
* Make CTRL+PGUP/PGDN switch memo/pester tabs
* Set up a simple function to display a traceback instead of silently moving on!

* SOONER OR LATER: Redo internal chum storage, centralize data into widely accessible manager objects, etc.
* Also: Overhaul settings storage. Bring it more in line with the system Textsub used (if feeling masochistic), but simpler.
* Overhaul debugging
* Make a console to display debug info without requiring us to run from console
* Debug generic.py's CaseInsensitiveDict/replace it with mine
* Overhaul messaging so Chan/Nick/Memo Servs all use the same code (and lexer)
* Implement MemoServ support
* Add support for displaying more verbose information (e.g. Cease messages which tell you more than the abbreviation of who left)
* Make Pesterchum recognize conventional /mes so they aren't invisible
* Fix NickServ auto-login things
* Fix memo autojoin
* Tell user when NickServ handles are going to expire
* Tell user when old handles have D/C'd? Offer autoghost support?!

* Add more comprehensive status support - IDLE, DND, INVISIBLE for now - or at least add similar functionality.
* SEPARATE FUNCTIONALITY from CONNECTED STATE!! This is a huge problem! Being shunted off our nick closes windows and breaks things! Just D/C and reconnect?
	* It'd probably be best to give an option to either CHANGE NICKS or DISCONNECT upon nick collision...? But, then how would we GHOST?
	* Maybe GHOSTing should use auto-identify to ensure- no, that doesn't work, because we can't ident into a specified nick without being ON it. Need GD's help to fix....

* Separate Pesterchum system handling from window handling. Dicts should be stored and maintained via dicts - even a refined version of what I used for textsub.
	* Doing it this way means I can fix the case in/sensitivity issue, too.

* Finish creating the sound wrapper. Just make it check what the type of sound needed is upon creation, and instantiate a private class based off of that.
	* There is basically no good way to do this without moving to Qt5. I might try that myself later, but that's a long-term goal.
* Toggle individual tab flash / alert sounds (from the same right-click memo that lets us toggle OOC)
* Make it possible to test quirk things and such without connecting? This'd be hard to separate out, but useful.

Debugging
----
* Make small, simplistic windows that allow the viewing of internal variables pertaining to things like set quirks, users present, etc.
* Make a window that can be used to interface with the script directly - a simple Python console.

Bugs
----
* weird memo time bug
* Windows doesn't show style sheet sometimes?? Maybe related to themes.
* Issues with connecting? Client not closing connection right? People keep getting "nick taken" messages
* When using mood sort, scroll position jumps to last selected chum
* Closing a timeclone doesn't actually cease for everyone else
* Kill Zalgo
* Random invisible, tiny links to last link at end of every message
* Chums not appearing on chumroll when initals are the same? (bS)
* Recognize IRC 471, 473, 474 and 475
* memo links aren't case sensitive

* Mentions occasionally don't work (e.g. in /me)
* Character times aren't 'forgotten' on Part
* +c is not properly recognized on join, nor does it stop someone from reenabling their quirk (let ops and above ignore it)
* Chumlist handles groups pretty badly (no using the same name as a handle, for example? Needs an errormessage at least)
* PESTERCHUM: messages are sent to things like NickServ
* Log folder/file names are not case-sensitive, so they break on non-Windows systems
* Capitalized /me's don't render (should forcibly lowercase them)

Windows Bugs
------------
* XP SP2: sometimes mouse clicks dont register? must be some kinda crash
* On reconnect and nick change, momentary theme change causes menu items to stop working
* Random chums won't show up on chumroll
* Popup toast notifications cause main window to raise

Mac Bugs
--------
* Mac doesn't show tabs right, display gifs, highlighting thing?
* SS: also the background image is broken
* SS: in the one-on-one pester it resizes with the window
* SS: but the memo one doesn't resize
* SS: and the arrows next to the time thing overlap the CLOSE button
* Lex: There seems to be a faint outline around most non-square themes.
