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:
``/command <mandatory argument> [optional argument]``
You can get the same help as below from inside poezio with the :term:`/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

/help
**Usage:** ``/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
**Usage:** ``/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
/quit
Just disconnect from the server and exit poezio.
/plugin
**Usage:** ``/load <plugin name>``
Load a plugin.
/plugins
List the loaded plugins.
/next
Go to the next room.
/prev
Go to the previous room.
/win
/w
**Usage:** ``/win <number>``
Go to the specified room.
/status
**Usage:** ``/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.'
/bookmark
**Usage:** ``/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.
/bookmark_local
**Usage:** ``/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.
/remove_bookmark
**Usage:** ``/remove_bookmark [room_jid]``
Remove the bookmark on *room_jid* or the one on the current tab, if any.
/bookmarks
Show the current bookmarks.
/set
**Usage:** ``/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 its currently false, and to false if its
currently true.
/move_tab
**Usage:** ``/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).
/theme
**Usage:** ``/theme [theme_name]``

*theme_name* is given, this command will act like :samp:`/set theme {theme_name}` then
