588 <div class="sectionbody">
589 <div class="paragraph"><p><tt>mcabber(1)</tt> is a small Jabber (XMPP) console client.<br />
590 For now it needs a configuration file to start, so please copy the sample
591 mcabberrc file and adapt your connection settings.</p></div>
592 <div class="paragraph"><p>You also need to have an existing Jabber account to use this software, as
593 it cannot (un)register accounts yet.</p></div>
594 <div class="paragraph"><p>Here are some of the features of <tt>mcabber</tt>:</p></div>
595 <div class="ulist"><ul>
596 <li>
598 <em>SASL/SSL/TLS support</em>.
599 </p>
600 </li>
601 <li>
603 <em>MUC support</em> (Multi-User Chat).
604 </p>
605 </li>
606 <li>
608 <em>PGP, OTR support</em>
609 </p>
610 </li>
611 <li>
613 <em>Chat States</em> support (typing notifications)
614 </p>
615 </li>
616 <li>
618 <em>History logging:</em> If enabled (see the CONFIGURATION FILE section),
619 <tt>mcabber</tt> can save discussions to text history log files.
620 </p>
621 </li>
622 <li>
624 <em>Commands completion:</em> If possible, <tt>mcabber</tt> will try to complete your
625 command line if you hit the Tab key.
626 </p>
627 </li>
628 <li>
630 <em>Input line history:</em> Any message or command entered is in the input line
631 history and can be reused easily.
632 </p>
633 </li>
634 <li>
636 <em>External actions:</em> Some events (like receiving a message) can trigger an
637 external action such as a shell script if you enable it in your
638 configuration file. A sample events script ("eventcmd") is provided with
639 <tt>mcabber</tt> source code, in the contrib directory.
640 </p>
641 </li>
642 <li>
644 <em>Modules:</em> <tt>mcabber</tt> can load modules (a.k.a. plugins) at runtime that
645 extend its features.

681 <div class="paragraph"><p>The <tt>mcabber(1)</tt> screen is divided into 4 regions.
682 The <em>roster</em>, alias <em>buddylist</em>, is on the left. The <em>chat window</em>, or chat
683 buffer, is on the right. The <em>input line</em> lies at the bottom of the screen,
684 under a small <em>log window</em>.</p></div>
685 <div class="paragraph"><p>Two status lines surround the log window. The bottom status line is the
686 "main status line" and reflects mcabber general status. The other line
687 is the "chat status line" and shows the status of the currently selected
688 buddy.</p></div>
689 <div class="paragraph"><p>To display buddies chat buffers, you will have to enter <em>chat mode</em>.
690 You can enter chat mode by pressing enter, and leave chat mode with the ESC
691 key. Simply sending a message will also enable chat mode.</p></div>
692 <div class="paragraph"><p>There are several advantages to the two-mode implementation: first, it allows
693 accurate "unread" message functionality, as described in the next section;
694 without this, merely scrolling to a specific buddy will "read" the new
695 messages of all buddies in-between. Second, it allows quickly hiding the
696 conversation with a single keystroke. Third, it allows jumping between
697 the few buddies with whom you are conversing with the <em>/roster alternate</em>
698 command described in another section, without having to manually scroll
699 back and forth.</p></div>
700 </div>
701 <h2 id="_keys">KEYS</h2>
702 <div class="sectionbody">
703 <div class="paragraph"><p>Text typing occurs in the <em>input line</em>; basic operations are supported
704 (left arrow, right arrow, home/end keys, insert, delete, backspace&#8230;).</p></div>
705 <div class="paragraph"><p>PageUp and PageDown keys are used to move in the roster.</p></div>
706 <div class="paragraph"><p>Up and Down arrow keys can be used to move in the input line history; they
707 jump to the previous/next line from the history beginning with the same string
708 (from first column to the cursor column).</p></div>
709 <div class="paragraph"><p>To send a message, move to the chosen buddy in the buddylist, type your
710 message and hit enter. If the line begins with a slash, this will be
711 interpreted as a command (see the COMMAND section below). Hit escape to
712 leave the chat mode.</p></div>

If you set the policy to manual, you or your chat partner have to start the OTR encryption by hand (e.g. with /otr start). The policy "opportunistic" does that itself by sending a special whitespace-sequence at the end of unencrypted messages. So the other OTR-enabled chat client knows, that you want to use OTR. Note that the first message will always be unencryted, if you use this policy. With the policy "always" no message will be sent in plain text. If you try to sent the first message unencrypted, mcabber will try to establish an OTR channel. Please resend your message, when you get the information that the channel was established. If someone sends you plaintext messages while the policy is set to "always", you&#8217;ll be able to read the message but it won&#8217;t be saved to the history.
