16:13 <ninenine> awesome, thanks! This weechat is like a many sided puzzle.
16:13 <@vilmibm> ninenine: indeed it is
16:13 <@vilmibm> a true lament configuration of online socializing
weechat is an irc client.
irc is like slack for your terminal.
/server add <alias> <url>/<port>
/connect <alias>
C-x - toggle between servers
/list - list all channels on a server. this is often too much to read!
/join <channel name> - join channel
/part - leave a channel, keep the buffer open
Alt-<up> && Alt-<down> - cycle through buffers
/buffer <name> - jump to buffer named
/close - close a buffer
Alt-a - jump to recent activity
Alt-l - toggle bare display (good for copy/pasting)
Ctrl-Alt-< - (That's Ctrl-Alt-Shift-,) jump backwards through buffer history
Ctrl-Alt-> - (That's Ctrl-Alt-Shift-.) jump forwards through buffer history
Alt-p - Go to previous highlight
Ctrl-r - search backwards
/window scroll bottom - sometimes a search or a Alt-p will launch you too far back in time
query <name> <msg> - open a buffer and send a to
you can send a file to somebody.
/help dcc
I use a laptop with a tiny little screen and sometimes it is useful and helpful to get some real estate back by hiding the buffer and nick lists.
/bar show|hide|toggle buflist/bar show|hide|toggle nicklist
You can even hide the status bar if you want to:
/bar toggle status-
Alt-z: hide other buffers
This isn't a bar but a "look" I guess, but sometimes on teeny tiny screens, I want to shrink the timestamp/nick bar as much as possible:
/set weechat.look.prefix_align none
/set weechat.look.align_end_of_lines time
To re-enable, the defaults are:
/set weechat.look.prefix_align right
/set weechat.look.align_end_of_lines message
You can adjust the prefix width too:
/set weechat.look.prefix_align_max 8
And of course, you can always just use Alt-l
which is called "Bear Display" 🐻
Sometimes people say sick shit and you don't wanna hear it and you gotta block they ass.
/ignore add <nick>
sometimes you don't wanna block a whole person but you don't wanna see certain content
for example, i don't like it when people just spam "hi" and don't say anything else
/filter add hi * * ^hi$
/filter add hello * * ^hello$
see /help filter
