Synopsis
|
||
|
|
--------
|
||
|
|
*degesch* [_OPTION_]...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Description
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
*degesch* is a scriptable IRC client for the command line. 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).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

Bugs
|
||
|
|
----
|
||
|
|
The editline (libedit) frontend is more of a proof of concept that mostly seems
|
||
|
|
to work but exhibits bugs that are not our fault.
|
||
|
|
|
