> show
mode: server
ip: 192.168.0.225
ipmode: IPv4
port: 4444
upnp: False
whitelist: False
blacklist: False
Adding an ip to the list:
> whitelist add 127.0.0.1
Check the list with show whitelist or show blacklist:
> show whitelist
whitelist status: False
[0] 127.0.0.1
Enabling witelist/blacklist:
Pylfer wont filter the clients ip if you don't enable the use of the lists.
> set whitelist true
Removing an ip from a whitelist/blacklist:
You can remove it by typing the entire ip, or by the index number that shows when you use the show whitelist or show blacklist command.
> show whitelist
whitelist status: True
[0] 127.0.0.1
> whitelist removen 0
> show whitelist
whitelist status: True
> file add "C:/Test.jpg"
> file allfilesin "C:/Music/Clasic"
You can always check your file list using show files:
> show files
[0] C:/Test.jpg
[1] C:/Music/Clasic/Antonio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - Summer.mp3
[2] C:/Music/Clasic/Antonio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - Winter.mp3

[6] C:/Music/Clasic/Strauss - Also sprach Zarathustra - Dudamel.mp3
[7] C:/Music/Clasic/Symphony No. 9 - Beethoven.mp3
The numbers that appear in brackets are the index numbers, you can use this to delete files from your list without typing the entire name:
> file removen 0
> show files
[0] C:/Music/Clasic/Antonio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - Summer.mp3
[1] C:/Music/Clasic/Antonio Vivaldi - The Four Seasons - Winter.mp3

Finally we launch the server:
> fire

(after configuring your ip to locip, your port number and whitelist/blacklist)
> show files
File list is empty.
Launching with:
