Shelf Menus – Right-click Popups

A right-click within an empty location in the Shelf brings up the popup menu on the right. If you select “Import”, you can then browse to find a text file (with the extension “.hoku”) that contains a job. That job is installed within this folder on the Shelf. The items on the Shelf are displayed in “Chronological” or “Alphabetical” order. If you select “New Folder”, a new folder is made on this shelf, with a name chosen by you. Shown on the screen is a second folder with the name “user”.

Left-clicking in a folder changes the Shelf to that folder. The right-click menu options are the same options as for an individual job, except that they apply to the whole folder and every folder and job within that folder. The View command does not apply to a folder.

If you right-click within a job on the Shelf, you are given the option to Delete, Export, Rename, or View. If you Delete it, then it is gone. If you Export it, you choose a directory on your computer, where Hoku stores a text file, under the name, “name.hoku”. Rename lets you change the name of the job on the Shelf. View shows you the job’s command statement.
