# NAME
|
||||
|
||||
aerc - the world's best email client
|
||||
|
||||
# INTRODUCTION
|
||||
|
||||
Welcome to aerc! This tutorial will guide you through your first steps in using
|
||||
the client. This tutorial is a man page - you can read it again later with
|
||||
*:help tutorial* from aerc, or *man aerc-tutorial* from your terminal.
|
||||
|
||||
First, let's introduce some basic keybindings. For convention, we'll use *<C-p>*
|
||||
to represent Ctrl+p, which matches the convention used for writing keybindings
|
||||
for aerc.
|
||||
|
||||
*C-n*
|
||||
Cycles to the next tab
|
||||
|
||||
*C-p*
|
||||
Cycles to the previous tab
|
||||
|
||||
Try using these now to switch between your message list and the tutorial. In
|
||||
your message list, we use vim-style keys to get around.
|
||||
|
||||
*k*, *j*
|
||||
Scrolls up and down between messages
|
||||
|
||||
*<C-u>*, *<C-d>*
|
||||
Scrolls half a page up or down
|
||||
|
||||
*g*, *G*
|
||||
Selects the first or last message, respectively
|
||||
|
||||
*K*, *J*
|
||||
Switches between folders in the sidebar
|
||||
|
||||
*<Enter>*
|
||||
Opens the selected message
|
||||
|
||||
# THE MESSAGE VIEWER
|
||||
|
||||
Press *<Enter>* to open a message. By default, the message viewer will display
|
||||
your message using *less*(1). This should also have familiar, vim-like
|
||||
keybindings for scrolling around in your message.
|
||||
|
||||
Multipart messages (messages with attachments, or messages with several
|
||||
alternative formats) show a part selector on the bottom of the message viewer.
|
||||
|
||||
*<C-k>*, *<C-j>*
|
||||
Cycle between parts of a multipart message
|
||||
|
||||
*q*
|
||||
Close the message viewer
|
||||
|
||||
# COMPOSING MESSAGES
|
||||
|
||||
Return to the message list by pressing *q* to dismiss the message viewer. Once
|
||||
there, let's compose a message.
|
||||
|
||||
*C*
|
||||
Compose a new message
|
||||
|
||||
*rr*
|
||||
Reply to a message
|
||||
|
||||
*rq*
|
||||
Reply to a message, and pre-fill the editor with a quoted version of the
|
||||
message being replied to
|
||||
|
||||
*Rr*
|
||||
Reply-all to a message
|
||||
|
||||
*Rq*
|
||||
Reply-all to a message, and pre-fill the editor with a quoted version of the
|
||||
message being replied to
|
||||
|
||||
For now, let's use *C* to compose a new message. The message composer will
|
||||
appear. You should see To, From, and Subject lines, as well as your *$EDITOR*.
|
||||
You can use *<Tab>* or *<C-j>* and *<C-k>* to cycle between these fields (tab
|
||||
won't cycle between fields once you enter the editor, but *<C-j>* and *<C-k>*
|
||||
will).
|
||||
|
||||
Let's send an email to yourself. Note that the To and From headers only accept
|
||||
RFC 5322 addresses, e.g. *John Doe <john@example.org>*, or simply
|
||||
*<john@example.org>*. Go ahead and fill out an email (to yourself, perhaps?),
|
||||
then close the editor.
|
||||
|
||||
The message review screen is shown next. You have a chance now to revise the
|
||||
email before it's sent. Press *y* to send the email if it looks good.
|
||||
|
||||
# USING THE TERMINAL
|
||||
|
||||
aerc comes with an embedded terminal, which you've already used to view and edit
|
||||
emails. We can also use this for other purposes, such as referencing a git
|
||||
repository while reviewing a patch. From the message list, we can use the
|
||||
following keybindings to open a terminal:
|
||||
|
||||
*<C-t>*
|
||||
Opens a new terminal tab, running your shell
|
||||
|
||||
*$*, *!*
|
||||
Prompts for a command to run, then opens a new terminal tab running that
|
||||
command
|
||||
|
||||
*|*
|
||||
Prompts for a command to run, then pipes the selected email into that
|
||||
command and displays the result on a new terminal tab
|
||||
|
||||
Try pressing *$* and entering "top". You can also use the *:cd* command to
|
||||
change aerc's working directory, and the directory in which new terminals run.
|
||||
Use *:pwd* to see it again if you're not sure where you are.
|
||||
|
||||
# ADDITIONAL NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
## COMMANDS
|
||||
|
||||
Every keybinding is ultimately bound to an aerc command. You can also summon the
|
||||
command line by pressing ':', then entering one of these commands. See *aerc*(1)
|
||||
or *:help* for a full list of commands.
|
||||
|
||||
## MESSAGE FILTERS
|
||||
|
||||
When displaying messages in the message viewer, aerc will pipe them through a
|
||||
_message filter_ first. This allows you to decode messages in non-plaintext
|
||||
formats, add syntax highlighting, etc. aerc ships with a few default filters:
|
||||
|
||||
- Emails which begin with "[PATCH" will be piped into a filter for rendering
|
||||
git-format-patch and hg export emails.
|
||||
- text/html is rendered with w3m in a network sandbox
|
||||
- text/\* is rendered with a simple filter for coloring quoted text
|
||||
|
||||
## CUSTOMIZING AERC
|
||||
|
||||
Aerc is highly customizable. Review *aerc-config*(5) (or use *:help config*) to
|
||||
learn more about how to add custom keybindings, install new message filters,
|
||||
change its appearance and behavior, and so on.
