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 ** +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.

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. + +**, ** + 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.

You should see To, From, and Subject lines, as well as your *$EDITOR*. +You can use ** or ** and ** to cycle between these fields (tab +won't cycle between fields once you enter the editor, but ** and ** +will). + +Let's send an email to yourself. Note that the To and From headers only accept +RFC 5322 addresses, e.g. *John Doe *, or simply +**. Go ahead and fill out an email (to yourself, perhaps?), +then close the editor. + +The message review screen is shown next. You have a chance now to revise the +email before it's sent. Press *y* to send the email if it looks good. + +# USING THE TERMINAL + +aerc comes with an embedded terminal, which you've already used to view and edit +emails. We can also use this for other purposes, such as referencing a git +repository while reviewing a patch. From the message list, we can use the +following keybindings to open a terminal: + +** + Opens a new terminal tab, running your shell + +*$*, *!* + 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. + +# AUTHORS + +Maintained by Drew DeVault , who is assisted by other open +source contributors.
