# aerc
aerc is an email client for your terminal.
A short demonstration can be found on [https://aerc-mail.org/](https://aerc-mail.org/)
Join the IRC channel: [#aerc on irc.freenode.net](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=aerc&uio=d4)
for end-user support, and [#aerc-dev](http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=aerc-dev&uio=d4)
for development.
## Usage
On its first run, aerc will copy the default config files to `~/.config/aerc`
on Linux or `~/Library/Preferences/aerc` on MacOS (or `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/aerc` if set)
and show the account configuration wizard.
If you redirect stdout to a file, logging output will be written to that file:
$ aerc > log
For instructions and documentation: see `man aerc` and further specific man
pages on there.
Note that the example HTML filter (off by default), additionally needs `w3m` and
`dante` to be installed.
## Installation
### Binary Packages
Recent versions of aerc are available on:
- [Alpine](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=aerc)
- [Arch](https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/aerc/)
- [macOS through Homebrew](https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/aerc)
And likely other platforms.
### From Source
Install the dependencies:
- go (>=1.13)
- [scdoc](https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc)
Then compile aerc:
$ make
aerc optionally supports notmuch. To enable it, you need to have a recent
version of [notmuch](https://notmuchmail.org/#index7h2), including the header
files (notmuch.h). Then compile aerc with the necessary build tags:
$ GOFLAGS=-tags=notmuch make
To install aerc locally:
# make install
