NeedToKnow 1.2
by Nephthys <Drunken Monkeys> of Hyjal
--------------------------------------


NeedToKnow helps you monitor important information without cluttering your field of view.  You don't have to scan through all your action buttons or all your buffs just to check for those few most-important items.  NeedToKnow provides: 

- 4 timer bars for important buffs 
- 7 reminder icons that appear when important abilities, spells, or items are finished cooling down and are ready to be used 

You determine which buffs and cooldowns NeedToKnow shows.  Individual bars and icons can be turned off when not needed.  Icons can be set to only appear in combat. 

For example, a rogue could set their timer bars to show Slice and Dice, Blade Flurry, and the Lust for Battle buff from their Bladefist's Breadth trinket.   And they could set their icons to show when they can use Blade Flurry, Bladefist's Breadth, and Riposte.

Instructions
------------

To unlock NeedToKnow, type "/ntk" or "/needtoknow".  Right-click bars and icons to bring up option menus.  Click the lock button when you're done and ready to play.  To reset everything to default settings, click the reset button or type "/ntk reset".  

When entering your settings, be careful with your spelling and capitalization.  Also remember that buffs sometimes have different names than the abilities or items that cause them.  For example, the buff from Bladefist's Breadth is called "Ferocity".
