π¬ man(1) β the Profanity XMPP client, bestie edition β¨
okay so this is a page about man?? no waitβnot really. this is all about the Profanity XMPP client's /intype command. the whole vibe is "what even is this command and why should you care". spoiler: it's about knowing when someone's typing back. iconic behavior honestly π
πΈ NAME πΈ
/intype β the Profanity /intype command. that's it. that's the name. short, sweet, main character energy. π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
so like, this command controls whether you get to see when a contact is typing at you. not me refreshing the window like a fool when I could just have the app tell me π
it shows up in two places, bestie:
- the console
- and the active message window
that's the whole deal. you turn it on, you get the lil "so-and-so is typingβ¦" moment. chef's kiss. π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
/intype console|titlebar on|off
that's the shape of it. one of console or titlebar, then on or off. no cap, that's literally it. π
π ARGUMENTS π
okay here's where we get specific, because the vibes are great but the details are everything fr fr:
titlebar on|offβ turn the contact-typing-messages notification on or off in the titlebar. so like, up there in the window chrome. a lil whisper that someone's typing. πconsole on|offβ turn the contact-typing-messages notification on or off in the console window. same deal, different location. π
ngl there's no "both" shortcut here. two separate switches, two separate spots. do with that information what you will π§
