91 .TP | |
6954 | 92 .B View Log |

451 can be activated by selecting the \fIBuddy Pounce\fR submenu from the | |
452 \fBTools\fR menu. A pounce can be set to occur on any combination of the | |
453 events listed, and any combination of actions can result. If \fISave this | |
454 pounce after activation\fR is checked, the trigger will remain until it is | |
455 removed from the \fIRemove Buddy Pounce\fR menu. | |
