-@SYNTAX:bind@
-
-Bind some action to specified keystroke. Remember that all characters
-in keystrokes are case-sensitive! Uppercase letter usually means that
-you need to keep SHIFT pressed to get the key to work.
-
-Most most commonly used keystrokes are:
-
- ^X - Ctrl-X
- meta-x - Meta-x (Meta is quite often Alt-key in PCs, ESC-x works too)
+Syntax:
-Irssi has by default also defined several other keys which you can use:
-
- return - The return/enter key
- space, backspace - Space / backspace
- up, down, left, right - Arrow keys
- cleft, cright - Ctrl-left/right
- home, end, prior, next - prior = Page Up, next = Page Down
- insert, delete
+@SYNTAX:bind@
-The keystroke can contain as many key presses as you want, and you can
-define names for different key sequences to use them more easily (the
-keys above are done like that). For example, you may want to manage
-windows with ^W key, so that ^W^C creates new window, ^W^K kills the
-active window, etc. you may do it like:
+Parameters:
- /BIND ^W^C /WINDOW NEW HIDE
- /BIND ^W^K /WINDOW KILL
+ -list: Displays a list of all the bindable commands.
+ -delete: Removes the binding,
-But maybe you wish to give these binds to other people who want to use
-some other key than ^W, then it would be better done as:
+ A name of the binding and the command to perform.
- /BIND ^W key window
- /BIND window-^C /WINDOW NEW HIDE
- /BIND window-^K /WINDOW KILL
+Details:
+ Adds or removes a binding. The binding itself is case-sensitive and may
+ contain as many characters as you want.
-To get a list of all bindable commands use /bind -list.
+ Uppercase characters usually indicate that you need to keep the shift-key
+ pressed to use the binding.
Examples:
-Clear screen:
- /BIND meta-c /CLEAR
+ /BIND meta-c /CLEAR
+ /BIND meta-q change_window 16
+ /BIND -delete meta-y
+ /BIND ^W^C /WINDOW NEW HIDE
+ /BIND ^W^K /WINDOW KILL
+ /BIND ^[[11~ command AWAY I'm off for today :)
+ /BIND ^[[12~ command AWAY
+
+See also: ALIAS
-People with qwertz layout probably want to swap meta-y and meta-z:
- /BIND meta-z change_window 16
- /BIND -delete meta-y
