+Commands
+========
+
+Commands start with the **/** character and can take a list of any number
+of arguments, separated by spaces. If an argument should contain a space,
+you can use the **"** character to surround this argument.
+
+The commands described in this page are shown like this:
+
+.. code-block::
+
+ /command <mandatory argument> [optional argument]
+
+You can get the same help as below from inside poezio with the **/help** command.
+
+.. note:: Use command parameters like this:
+
+ - Do not use quotes if they are unnecessary (words without special chars or spaces)
+ - If the command takes several agrguments, you need to put quotes around arguments containing special chars such as backslashes or quotes
+ - If the command always takes only one argument, then do not use quotes even for words containing special chars
+
+Global commands
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+These commands work in *any* tab.
+
+**/help [command]**
+ If called without an argument, this command will list the
+ available commands. If it has a valid command as an argument, this command
+ will show the usage and the help for the given command.
+
+**/join [room_name][@server][/nick] [password]**
+ Join the specified room. You
+ can specify a nickname after a slash (/). If no nickname is specified, you
+ will use the default_nick in the configuration file. You can omit the room
+ name: you will then join the room you're looking at (useful if you were
+ kicked). You can also provide a room_name without specifying a server, the
+ server of the room you're currently in will be used. You can also provide a
+ password to join the room.
+
+ *Examples:*
+
+ - /join room@server.tld
+ - /join room@server.tld/John
+ - /join room2
+ - /join /me_again
+ - /join
+ - /join room@server.tld/my_nick password
+ - /join / password
+
+**/exit and /quit**
+ Just disconnect from the server and exit poezio.
+
+.. _command-next:
+**/next**
+ Go to the next room.
+
+.. _command-prev:
+**/prev**
+ Go to the previous room.
+
+.. _command-win:
+**/win <number> or /w <number>**
+ Go to the specified room.
+
+.. _command-status:
+**/status <availability> [status message]**
+ Set your availability and
+ (optionaly) your status message. The <availability> argument is one of
+ "available, chat, away, afk, dnd, busy, xa" and the optional [status] argument
+ will be your status message.'
+
+.. _command-bookmark:
+**/bookmark [roomname][/nick] [autojoin] [password]**
+ Bookmark the specified
+ room. This command uses almost the same syntax as /join. Type /help join for
+ syntax examples. Note that when typing /bookmark on its own, the room will be
+ bookmarked with the nickname you're currently using in this room (instead of
+ default_nick). You can specify an optional *autojoin* and *password* if you
+ call it with the full line (/bookmark alone will put the room in autojoin
+ without password). The bookmarks stored with this command are stored on your
+ xmpp server.
+
+.. _command-bookmark-local:
+**/bookmark_local [roomname][/nick]**
+ Bookmark the specified room (you will
+ then auto-join it on each poezio start). This commands uses almost the same
+ syntax as /join. Type /help join for syntax examples. Note that when typing
+ /bookmark on its own, the room will be bookmarked with the nickname you're
+ currently using in this room (instead of default_nick). The bookmarks stored
+ with this command will be stored locally. They have priority over the ones
+ stored online.
+
+.. _command-remove-bookmark:
+**/remove_bookmark [room_jid]**
+ Remove the bookmark on *room_jid* or the one on the current tab, if any.
+
+.. _command-bookmarks:
+**/bookmarks**
+ Show the current bookmarks.
+
+.. _command-set:
+**/set [plugin|][section] <option> <value>**
+ Set the value to the option in
+ your configuration file. You can, for example, change your default nickname
+ by doing "/set default_nick toto" or your resource with "/set resource
+ blabla". Doing so will write in the main config file, and in the main
+ section ([Poezio]). But you can also write to another section, with "/set
+ bindings M-i ^i", to a plugin configuration with "/set mpd_client| host
+ main" (notice the **|**, it is mandatory to write in a plugin), or even to
+ another section in a plugin configuration "/set plugin|other_section option
+ value". **toggle** can be used as a special value for a boolean option. It
+ just set the option to true if it’s currently false, and to false if it’s
+ currently true.
+
+.. _command-move-tab:
+**/move_tab <source> <destination>**
+ Move tab <source> to <destination>. If
+ the create_gaps option is true, then it will leave a gap at the <source>
+ position, leading to usual behaviour. If create_gaps is not enabled, then the
+ tabs will number from 0 to your actual tab number, without gaps (which means
+ their number will change if you close a tab on the left of the list).
+
+.. _command-theme:
+**/theme [theme_name]**
+ Reload the theme defined in the config file. If
+ _theme_name_ is given, this command will act like /set theme theme_name then
+ /theme.
+
+.. _command-presence:
+**/presence <jid> [type] [status]**
