<p>KC Items is an addon conglomerate that is both feature rich
and modular. By modular I mean that you
can remove any of the modules that you chose to do so. However some modules depend on the functionality
of other modules, and if you remove a module any dependent modules will be
disabled. Each module is broken up into
its own directory for easy removal. The
following is a list of all the modules with a full description of each. Based on which of these modules you decide to
use the functionality of KC_Items can change drastically.</p>
<p><b>Core</b> – </p>
<p>This module contains the module code, startup code, and
common code. It is required by all other
modules and should never be removed.</p>
<p><b>KC Auction</b> –</p>
<p><span class=GramE>Allows you to scan the auction house for
average prices.</span> When joined with
the tooltip module, KC Auction will also display that info on just about every
item tooltip in the game. </p>
<p><b>KC Bank</b> – </p>
<p>This module stores all the information from your bank in a
compact format and provides an easy to use programming interface for other
modules or addons to obtain this information. It also acts as a passive form of link collection for the item database
as any item you have in your bank will be added to your database if needed. However, KC Bank provides no interface for
the end users to access this data.</p>
<p><b>KC Broker</b> –</p>
<p><i>Requires: KC Auction Optionally Requires: KC
SellValue</i></p>
<p>This module offers enhanced auction house capability. This currently includes the following:</p>
<p>1)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>Remembers
last used auction duration</p>
<p>2)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>Colors
auctions based on if it has a good sales price compared to the average or if
it’s a recipe that you already know.</p>
<p>3)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>Automatically
fills in suggested prices based on what you sold it for last time, average
market value, how much it will sell to a vendor for (requires sellvalue), or
simply base a buyout price on the default min bid price.</p>
<p>4)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>One-Click
auction listing via alt-leftclicking an item while at the auction house.</p>
<p>5)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>One-Click
auction searching via control-rightclicking an item while at the auction house.</p>
<p>6)<span
style='font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"'> </span>One-Click
stack splitting. Will take the top item
off your stack if you alt-rightclick.</p>
<p><b>KC Chatlink</b> – </p>
<p>This module allows you to type a link directly into the chat
window. KC Chatlink offers two separate
modes for this namely, Safe and Standard. With Standard mode you simply type in the name of the item surrounded by
brackets and Chatlink will take its best guess (i.e. <span class=GramE>[Lightforge Leggings] or
[bob]).</span> With Safe mode you must
precede the first bracket with a $ to activate Chatlink (i.e. $[Lightforge Leggings] or $[bob]). In either mode, if more than one match is
found Chatlink will change it to the link based on the first find, and display
the first 10 other options.</p>
<p><b>KC Equipment</b> –</p>
<p>This module is almost exactly like KC Bank except that it
stores your other characters equipment instead of bank items.</p>
<p><b>KC Inventory</b> –</p>
<p>Another data storage module, KC Inventory is like KC Bank
and KC Equipment, except stores inventory information.</p>
<p><b>KC Iteminfo</b> –</p>
<p><i>Requires: KC Tooltip</i></p>
<p>This module is still young and currently just adds the max
stack size to the item tooltip. More
functionality will be added to this module in the future. Make your wishes known at my wowinterface
portal!</p>
<p><b>KC Linknet</b> –</p>
<p>Linknet exists to do active link collection for the item
database. It scans all standard chat
channels, players that you target, and the auction house as you browse it. This is not required for KC Linkview, but is
the only way you can get active link collection.</p>
<p><b>KC Linkview</b> –</p>
<p>Linkview is the part of KC_Items that allows you to browse
and search through the item database. You can search by name, slot, level, or several other parameters. </p>
<p><b>KC Optimizer</b> –</p>
<p>This module currently handles little compared to its end
plans. Eventually this module will offer
commands to validate and cleanup the databases, clear unwanted or needed info,
and more. For the moment it just handles
upgrade processes and houses the master database of nearly 42,000 items (not
loaded into memory) of which roughly 65% have sell values.</p>
<p><b>KC Sellvalue</b> –</p>
<p>Like its namesake this mod will collect and store both what
vendors will sell and pay for items when you visit a vendor. When combined with KC Tooltip it will display
this item on the tooltip as well.</p>
<p><b>KC Tooltip</b> –</p>
<p>This module is another behind the scenes module in the fact
that by itself it doesn’t do much. When
combined with another module that takes advantage of it though KC Tooltip will
display various pieces of data when you mouse over an item. There is a page in the ace wiki detailing how
to optionally support this in your addons located here: <a
href="http://wiki.wowace.com/index.php/KC_Items_Tooltips"><span
style='text-decoration:none;text-underline:none'>http://wiki.wowace.com/index.php/KC_Items_Tooltips</span></a></p>
<br clear=all style='page-break-before:always'>
<p><b>Chat Commands</b>. There are a lot of them in KC Items, soon
these will be replaced by a nice pretty graphic configuration screen, but for
right now, they’re all you got! Here’s a
list divided by module.</p>
