The Settings Menu
This menu allows access to all those user-definable setting and preferences
in HLOM.
Categories
This is where you edit and manage your Categories. See Managing Categories for more on using HLOM's categories.
Account
This is where you can change the email address HLOM uses to stay in touch with you,
and change your password.
You cannot change the Username you used to set up your HLOM account. We need
one piece of unique and unchanging information, and your username is it. You
can set up another account under a different name, but not change the name
of an existing account...
Display
This allows you to decide how long you'd like your result lists to appear, and how you'd like HLOM to display new windows.
Toolbar
This is where you'll find the Grabber bookmarklet-thingies that you need
on your toolbar.
You'll also find another couple of toolbar gadgets here; Search opens HLOM's
Advanced Search into a neat new window, while HLOM Home opens up HLOM on, you've
guessed it, your personal HLOM Home Page.
Dailies takes you to your HLOM home page; where a handy single button
can open all of your daily links for you in one easy click.
Import
This allows you to extract links from files or web pages. You can upload anything to import,
and HLOM will endeavour to extract useful URLs from it. If you upload a ASCII
copy of Cryptomnicon you probably won't find that many links. However, if
you upload a Favorites List from Explorer, or a Bookmarks List form Netscape/Mozilla
HLOM will import all of those links for you.
Handily you can also point HLOM at any page on a website and have it strip out
all the links it finds.
Yes, that does mean you can do a search in Google and get HLOM to import the
results that it returns. We're probably going to run a competition for most original
usage of this feature...
We're still testing/building Importing. For the time being we're
working on the assumption that if you don't know how to find those Favorite/Bookmark
files you probably shouldn't be playing with it just yet.
User-friendly directions for uploading will be forthcoming just as soon as we've
bomb-proofed the process...
