Menus

File Menu
N File New Empty Playlist... 	Create a new playlist
F File New Search Playlist... 	Creates a new search playlist.
D File New Playlist From Folder... 	Creates a new playlist, containing all music files in a folder and any sub-folders. Any music within playlists files that JuK recognizes will also be added.
O File Open... 	Select a file (or files) to add to the collection list. If you select a playlist file, every file in the playlist will be added.
File Manage Folders... 	This menu item opens the same window that is shown on a first JuK start
Select a folder (or folders) to add to the collection list. These folders will also be rescanned whenever JuK is started or File Reload is chosen.
You can also select folders that should not be automatically searched (which would override the list of folders to scan on startup). This way you can avoid having to completely change up your music layout on-disk just to keep JuK from automatically grabbing songs you do not want or need managed from within JuK.
