Forgive me, where do I go to add the -rescan command for the client?

Yes, I consolidated all coins into a new receive wallet on 11/20. 11/29 is when the client was syncing after signing into to my MacBook, everything froze up and would not respond to anything so I had to do a forced shutdown. Started back up and it gave me a corrupt file system message so I went into recovery to restore from the built in recovery partition. Once I was able to boot up and sign in again the feathercoin along with all other installed applications was grayed out in my applications menu. When I clicked on it to launch it gave me an application corrupt message. So, I looked for the location of my wallet.dat file. I found two. One in ~Library/Application Support/Feathercoin/ and one in ~Library/Application Support/Bitcoin (I don’t have a bitcoin client installed)
I saved a copy from both. Then I downloaded and installed the most recent client. The first time it prompted asking if I wanted to keep both or replace. I chose keep both then tried to launch but still got the corrupt error. So I installed again and chose replace. It then would launch and sync. However no coins appeared when it loaded and finished syncing. I then tried copying the backup wallet.dat files to the feathercoin directory and launching the client again. Also with other wallet.dat backups I had on a thumb drive from prior to when I had consolidated wallets. Every wallet.dat file I try shows 0 coins. I did also have the Litecoin client installed which was also corrupt after my OS recovery. I installed the latest from the Litecoin site and launched it, it also gave me a message about my wallet being corrupt but went into a diet of recovery mode and did finally launch with my few Litecoin showing.

I’m pretty sure my coins are history but I’ll ask anyway.
So, I had the feathercoin client running on OSX when it locked up. Hard reboot, OS corrupted so had to do a restore. Got back up and running, the feathercoin client was corrupted. Did a clean install after doing a backup of the wallet.dat file. I did have other backups as well. The issue which I guess I’m just looking for confirmation on: I had consolidated all my FTC to a single new wallet last month. I foolishly did not do a backup after consolidating. When you create a new receive wallet is a new private key “send” wallet also created? I ask because all wallet.dat files I have backed up and tried with the client will sync up and show a zero coin balance. Pretty safe to assume my coins are gone?

I have been mining with GMC since shortly after I took the plunge into FTC last year. They always have handled issues with great speed and professionalism. This last attack was no exception and why I continue to mine with them.

I may be interested in helping out with community though I would like more details about what it entails.

This article seems to corroborate that:

I like SuperScrypt too. It makes everything else seem inferior.

This one seems pretty decent for BTC, it will be interesting to see if Apple pulls it:

They make you agree that you will not hold Apple liable for any transactions before you send BTC.
