On the first run +it will welcome you with an introductory message. Should you ever get lost, +use the */help* command to obtain more information on commands or options. + +Options +------- +*-f*, *--format*:: + Format IRC text from the standard input, converting colour sequences and + other formatting marks to ANSI codes retrieved from the *terminfo*(5) + database: ++ +``` +printf '\x02bold\x02\n' | degesch -f +``` ++ +This feature may be used to preview server MOTD files. + +*-h*, *--help*:: + Display a help message and exit. + +*-V*, *--version*:: + Output version information and exit. + +Key bindings +------------ +Most key bindings are inherited from the frontend in use, which is either GNU +Readline or BSD editline. A few of them, however, are special to the IRC client +or assume a different function. This is a list of all local overrides and +their respective function names: + +*M-p*:: + Go up in history for this buffer (normally mapped to *C-p*). +*M-n*:: + Go down in history for this buffer (normally mapped to *C-n*). +*C-p*, *F5*: *previous-buffer*:: + Switch to the previous buffer in order. +*C-n*, *F6*: *next-buffer*:: + Switch to the next buffer in order. +*M-TAB*: *switch-buffer*:: + Switch to the last buffer, i.e., the one you were in before. +*M-0*, *M-1*, ..., *M-9*: *goto-buffer*:: + Go to the N-th buffer (normally sets a repeat counter). + Since there is no buffer number zero, *M-0* goes to the tenth one. +*M-!*: *goto-highlight*:: + Go to the first following buffer with an unseen highlight. +*M-a*: *goto-activity*:: + Go to the first following buffer with unseen activity. +*PageUp*: *display-backlog*:: + Show the in-memory backlog for this buffer in the backlog helper, + which is almost certainly the *less*(1) program. +*M-h*: *display-full-log*:: + Show the log file for this buffer in the backlog helper. +*M-H*: *toggle-unimportant*:: + Hide all join, part and quit messages, as well as all channel mode changes + that only relate to user channel modes. Intended to reduce noise in + channels with lots of people. +*M-e*: *edit-input*:: + Run an editor on the command line, making it easy to edit multiline + messages. Remember to save the file before exit. +*M-m*: *insert-attribute*:: + The next key will be interpreted as a formatting mark to insert: + *c* for colours (optionally followed by numbers for the foreground + and background), *i* for italics, *b* for bold text, *u* for underlined, + *x* for struck-through, *v* for inverse text and *o* resets all formatting. +*C-l*: *redraw-screen*:: + Should there be any issues with the display, this will clear the terminal + screen and redraw all information. + +Additionally, *C-w* and *C-u* in editline behave the same as they would in +Readline or the "vi" command mode, even though the "emacs" mode is enabled +by default. + +Bindings can be customized in your _.inputrc_ or _.editrc_ file. Both libraries +support conditional execution based on the program name. Beware that it is easy +to make breaking changes. + +Environment +----------- +*VISUAL*, *EDITOR*:: + The editor program to be launched by the *edit-input* function. + If neither variable is set, it defaults to *vi*(1). + +Files +----- +*degesch* follows the XDG Base Directory Specification. + +_~/.config/degesch/degesch.conf_:: + The program's configuration file.
