From a15e52dc39e7c916804c788ff1e832fd6f58c735 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Jonas=20Sch=C3=A4fer?= Date: Sun, 10 May 2020 11:21:27 +0200 Subject: Add option to show only the unique prefix of tab names When the set of tabs used fluctuate, the memory of which number belongs to which chat becomes difficult to work with. Non-numbers can be used to navigate tabs with `/win`, however, it is difficult to know which letters are required to select a certain tab. This option introduces a display mode for tab names where only the unique prefix of the tab name is shown, saving space and providing with a minimal string which can be used with `/win`. --- doc/source/configuration.rst | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) (limited to 'doc/source') diff --git a/doc/source/configuration.rst b/doc/source/configuration.rst index 9619022a..aceb6fb4 100644 --- a/doc/source/configuration.rst +++ b/doc/source/configuration.rst @@ -793,6 +793,17 @@ or the way messages are displayed.
