+Configure
+=========
+
+The configuration is located in the file *~/.config/poezio/poezio.cfg*
+On its first startup, poezio will create that file (and its containing
+directories) with the default configuration. You can edit that file manually
+or use the */set* command to edit some of its values directly from poezio.
+This file is also used to configure key bindings, but this is explained
+in the _keys_ documentation file.
+
+That file is read at each startup and the configuration is saved when poezio
+is closed.
+
+This configuration file *requires* all the options to be in a section
+named [Poezio].
+
+An option is formatted with the form
+======================
+option = value
+======================
+
+An empty value *doesn’t* mean that the default value will be used. That’s
+just an empty value. To use the default value, just comment or remove the
+option entirely.
+
+Here is a list of all the avalaible configuration options, their meaning
+and their default value.
+
+Configuration options
+---------------------
+
+[horizontal]
+*server*:: anon.louiz.org
+
+ The server to use for *anonymous* authentication.
+ Make sure it accepts anonymous authentification
+ Note that this option doesn’t do anything at all if you’re using your own JID.
+
+*port*:: 5222
+
+ The port you’ll use to connect.
+
+*resource*:: [empty]
+
+ the resource you will use
+ If it's empty, your resource will be chosen (most likely randomly) by the server
+ It is not recommended to use a resource that is easy to guess, because it can lead
+ to presence leak.
+
+
+*default_nick*:: [empty]
+
+ the nick you will use when joining a room with no associated nick
+ If this is empty, the $USER environnement variable will be used
+
+
+*jid*:: [empty]
+
+ Jabber identifiant. Specify it only if you want to connect using an existing
+ account on a server. This is optional and useful only for some features,
+ like room administration, nickname registration.
+ The 'server' option will be ignored if you specify a JID (Jabber identifiant)
+ It should be in the form nickname@server.tld
+
+*password*:: [empty]
+
+ A password is needed only if you specified a jid. It will be ignored otherwise
+ If you leave this empty, the password will be asked at each startup
+
+
+
+*rooms*:: poezio@muc.poezio.eu
+
+ the rooms you will join automatically on startup, with associated nickname or not
+ format : room@server.tld/nickname:room2@server.tld/nickname2
+ default_nick will be used if "/nickname" is not specified
+
+*completion*:: normal
+
+ the completion type you will use to complete nicknames
+ if "normal", complete the entire name to the first available completion
+ and then cycle through the possible completion with the next TABs
+ if "shell", if there's more than one nick for this completion, complete
+ only the part that all then nicks have in common (like in a shell)
+
+
+*after_completion*:: ,
+
+ what will be put after the name, when using autocompletion
+ a SPACE will always be added after that
+
+*highlight_on*:: [empty]
+
+ a list of words (separated by a colon (:)) that will be
+ highlighted if said by someone on a room
+
+*enable_xhtml_im*:: true
+
+ XHTML-IM is an XMPP extension letting users send messages
+ containing XHTML and CSS formating. We can use this to make
+ colored text for example.
+ It is disabled by default because this is only in an experimental
+ state: you could miss some part of a message (mainly the URL)
+ but you can still send colored messages. You just won’t be able te see
+ the colors, though
+ Set to true if you want to see colored messages
+
+*hide_status_change*:: 120
+
+ Set a number for this setting.
+ The join OR status-change notices will be
+ displayed according to this number.
+ -1: the notices will ALWAYS be displayed
+ 0: the notices will NEVER be displayed
+ n: On any other number, the notices will only be displayed
+ if the user involved has talked since the last n seconds
+ if the value is incorrect, -1 is assumed
+ Default setting means :
+ - status changes won't be displayed unless
+ the user talked in the last 2 minutes
+
+*hide_exit_join*:: -1
+
+ Exact same thing than hide_status_change, except that it concerns
+ the quit message, and that it will be hidden only if the value is 0.
+ Default setting means:
+ - all quit and join notices will be displayed
+
+
+*information_buffer_popup_on*:: error roster warning help info
+
+ Some informational messages (error, a contact getting connected, etc)
+ are sometimes added to the information buffer. These settings can make
+ that buffer grow temporarly so you can read these information when they
+ appear.
+
+ A list of message types that should make the information buffer grow
+ Possible values; error, roster, warning, info, help
+
+*popup_time*:: 4
+
+ The time the message will be visible in the information buffer when it
+ pops up.
+ If the message takes more than one line, the popup will stay visible
+ two more second per additional lines
+
+*autorejoin*:: false
+
+ set to 'true' if you want to automatically rejoin the
+ room when you're kicked
+
+*alternative_nickname*:: [empty]
+
+ If you want poezio to join
+ the room with an alternative nickname when
+ your nickname is already in use in the room you
+ wanted to join, put a non-empty value.
+ Else, poezio won't join the room
+ This value will be added to your nickname to
+ create the alternative nickname.
+ For example, if you set "\_", and wanted to use
+ the nickname "john", your alternative nickname
+ will be "john_"
+
+*muc_history_length*:: 50
+
+ Limit the number of messages you want to receive when the
+ multiuserchat rooms send you recent history
+ 0: You won't receive any
+ -1: You will receive the maximum
+ n: You will receive at most n messages
+ Note that if you set a huge number (like the default value), you
+ may not receive that much messages. The server has its own
+ maximum too
+
+*use_log*:: true
+
+ set to 'false' if you don’t want to save logs of all the messages
+ in files.
+
+
+*log_dir*:: [empty]
+
+ If log_dir is not set, logs will be saved in $XDG_DATA_HOME/poezio/logs,
+ i.e. in ~/.local/share/poezio/logs/. So, you should specify the directory
+ you want to use instead. This directory will be created if it doesn't exist
+
+*show_inactive_tabs*:: true
+
+ If you want to show all the tabs in the Tab bar, even those
+ with no activity, set to true. Else, set to false
+
+
+*beep_on*:: highlight private
+
+ The terminal can beep on various event. Put the event you want in a list
+ (separated by spaces).
+ The events can be
+ - highlight (when you are highlighted in a MUC)
+ - private (when a new private message is received, from your contacts or
+ someone from a MUC)
+ - message (any message from a MUC)
+
+*themes_dir*:: [empty]
+
+ If themes_dir is not set, themes will searched for in $XDG_DATA_HOME/poezio/themes,
+ i.e. in ~/.local/share/poezio/themes/. So you should specify the directory you
+ want to use instead. This directory will be created at startup if it doesn't
+ exist
+
+
+*theme*:: [empty]
+
+ The name of the theme file (without the .py extension) that will be used.
+ The file should be located in the theme_dir directory.
+ If the file is not found (or no filename is specified) the default
+ theme will be used instead
+
+*send_chat_states*:: true
+
+ if true, chat states will be sent to the people you are talking to.
+ Chat states are, for example, messages informing that you are composing
+ a message or that you closed the tab, etc
+ Set to false if you don't want people to know these information
+ Note that you won’t receive the chat states of your contacts
+ if you don't send yours.
+
+
+*send_poezio_info*:: true
+
+ if true, information about the software (name and version)
+ will be sent if requested by anyone
+ Set to false if you don't want people to know these information
+
+
+*send_os_info*:: true
+
+ if true, information about the Operation System you're using

+
+*send_time*:: true
+
+ if true, your current time will be sent if asked
+ Set to false if you don't want people to know that information
+

+ values
+
+*max_lines_in_memory*:: 2048

+Keys
+====
+
+This file describes the default keys of poezio and explains how to
+configure them.
+
+By default, most keys manipulating the input (where you type your
+messages and commands) behave like emacs does.
+
+Note that keys are case sensitive. Ctrl-X is not the same than Ctrl-x
+
+Key bindings listing
+--------------------
+Some key bindings are available only in some tabs, others are global.
+
+Global keys
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+These keys work in *any* tab.
+
+*Ctrl-n*:: Go to the next tab.
+
+*Ctrl-p*:: Go to the previous tab.
+
+*Alt-number*:: Go to tab number x.
+
+*Alt-j*:: Waits for you to type a two-digits number. Go to tab number xx.
+
+Input keys
+~~~~~~~~~~
+These keys concern only the inputs.
+
+*Ctrl-a*:: Move the cursor to the beginning of line.
+
+*Ctrl-e*:: Move the cursor to the end of line.
+
+Chat tab input keys
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+These keys work in any conversation tab (MultiUserChat, Private or Conversation tabs)
+
+*Key Up*:: Use the previous message from the message history.
+
+*Key Down*:: Use the next message from the message history.
+
+*Page Up*:: Scroll up in the conversation by x lines, where x is the height of the conversation window - 1.

+*Page Down*:: Likfe Page Up, but down.
+
+*Alt-/*:: Complete what you’re typing using the "recent" words from the current conversation, if any.
+
+Key configuration
+-----------------
+Bindings are keyboard shortcut aliases. You can use them
+to define your own keys to replace the default ones.
+where ^x means Control + x
+and M-x means Alt + x
