The event manager is the heart of Toolfish. All web compare, macro, hotkey and other events can be added, organized, edited, run and deleted here.

To move an event to another folder drag it's icon. You can also drag and drop folders and standard conventions like F2 to rename will work.

The name for each event is shown is automatically generated based on what the event does or it can be customized to be a little clearer and easier on the eyes.

Note: While using the Event Manager Toolfish is effectively paused. Until you hit Done, no hotkeys, events, etc. will be active.

Create Folder - Add a folder that you can use to organize events. Empty folders get automatically deleted so make sure an event is in it.
Add Event - Will create a new blank event. You must add the trigger(s) and action(s) yourself. (Don't worry, it's a breeze)
Edit Event - Change an existing event.
Delete Event - Poof, kills an event(s). There is no undo so be careful. If no event is highlighted, nothing will happen.
Disable Event - This toggles an event to be active or inactive. Inactive events are not run.
Run Now - Force the event to be triggered.This won't change the normal scheduling and is very useful to manually make sure an event is working right or to quickly check a bunch of websites on a whim. (TIP: If you highlight a folder and click Run Now, the entire group of its contents will be run)

The Event editor is where the magic happens. If you have just clicked "Add Event" then there will be no triggers or actions, you need to add 'em

About filenames: Every event is stored in a separate file. These files all reside in your \Events directory. (Relative to your main Toolfish directory)

If you erase an event file or add an event file manually with file explorer and restart toolfish, the event(s) will be added or removed automatically. This makes it easy to backup events or send a useful event to a friend.

Enabled checkbox - If not checked the event will not run. (Can also be set by using the Event Managers enable/disable toggle button)

Rename - You never have to rename the filename of an event, but the default filenames are a bit cryptic and if you need to copy a certain event using file explorer for some reason this makes it much easier.

Quiet Mode checkbox - This causes the event to run without notifying you on the log and most triggers/actions to operate with reduced status messages. If you check email every minute, you really don't want the "checking email" messages to flood the activity log.

The activity log will still notify you when a page is updated or email is received; you just don't want to see anything until something at least semi-important happens in the event.

Generate event name automatically - If this is checked Toolfish will automatically generate a name for the event based on what it does. If you uncheck it you can specify your own (and probably easier to understand) description.
