Hark-- Vertex Groups, Armature modifier, UNAPPLIED TRANSFORMS - I think this solves that for you, but if it is in wrong place try Ctrl+a > all transforms.

If your object is not moving by the bone in pose mode, you probably duplicated to get it, renaming it might solve this

if you get a Encoding error: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x9f in position 2: invalid start byte or a Encoding error: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd0 in position 0: invalid continuation byte buy me dinner first because I fixed it. Open an issue if this occurs.

TODO if you pay me $Instancer

prevent duplicate bones

hotkey and better direction selection

group selection actions

selection macros

custom bone naming strategy (currently it just takes object name)

add utf-8 errors back in
