.PP
tinmop - a client for gemini, pleroma social network or 9p protocol overt TLS
.SH "Synopsis"
.PP
tinmop [OPTION]…
.SH "Description"
.PP
This document assumes basic knowledge of how fediverse works. More
information about this topic can be found on the following websites:
.IP \(em 4
\fIhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse\fP ;
.IP \(em 4
\fIhttps://pleroma.social/\fP ;
.IP \(em 4
\fIhttps://docs.joinmastodon.org/\fP .
.PP
Tinmop proposes an extensible terminal interface to connect with
Pleroma social network or for the gemini protocol
.IP \(em 4
gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/
.IP \(em 4
\fIhttps://gemini.circumlunar.space/docs/\fP
.PP
Finally tinmop can connect to network file system using 9p protocol
over TLS (using client certificates as authentication method).
.PP
For more information about this feature, please visit:
\fIhttps://kamid.omarpolo.com/\fP.

Execute a script file
.TP
\fB-f, --folder FOLDER-NAME \fP
Start on that folder
.TP
\fB-h, --help \fP
print program help and exit
.TP
\fB-t, --timeline TIMELINE-NAME \fP
Start using this timeline
.TP
\fB-u, --update-timeline \fP

.TP
\fB-v, --version \fP
Print program version and exit
.SH "Usage"
.PP
Users of Tinmop supposed to interact with the social network
using a terminal interface (TUI), The terminal screen layout is
sketched below:
.RS
.nf
\fC+---------------+---------------------------+
| | |
| tags window | thread windows |
| | |
| | modeline |
+---------------+---------------------------+
| | |
| conversations | main window |
| window | |
| | |
| | |
+---------------+---------------------------+
| command window |
+-------------------------------------------+
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
The screen is subdivided in five window:
.TP
\fBtag window\fP
shows the tag users subscribed for and available messages for each tag;
.TP
\fBthreads window\fP
for a given timeline and folder (see \fIFolders\fP) show the discussions saved in user's local database;
.TP
\fBconversations window\fP
show the \fIprivate\fP conversations the user is having with others;
.TP
\fBmain window\fP
show the body of the message selected in the tag window or gemini page
.TP
\fBcommand window\fP
the window where the user instruct the software to perform commands
.PP
Using the program in gemini exclusive mode (option \fB"-G"\fP) the program layout is simplified:
.RS
.nf
\fC
+------------------------------------------+
| |
| main window |
| |
| |
| |
+------------------------------------------+
| command window |
+------------------------------------------+
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
The main way to interact with the program is using the keyboard. By
default you can move focus to each window (except command window
that can not get focus explicitly) using \fB'M-arrow key'\fP (meta is
\fBALT\fP on many keyboards). There is a contextual help that appears
when the user input data that provide hints about commands and a
quick help window that can be shown by hitting \fC?\fP (if this
keybinding has not been customized).
.SS "Command window keys"
.PP
The command window has a few hardcoded command keys to interact
with it:
.IP \(em 4
the \fBleft\fP and \fBright\fP arrow keys move the cursor;
.IP \(em 4
the key \fBhome\fP and \fBend\fP move the cursor to the start and end of
.PP
the input respectively;
.IP \(em 4
\fBcanc\fP and \fBbackspace\fP delete the next and previous character
.PP
respectively;
.IP \(em 4
the \fBnew line\fP (often called \fBenter\fP key) send the input to the
.PP
program;
.IP \(em 4
\fBC-k\fP (that is: "press 'control' and while pressed press 'k')
.PP
\fIkills\fP (deletes) the text from the cursor position to the end of
the input previously typed;
.IP \(em 4
press \fBM-left\fP and \fBM-right\fP (\fBleft alt\fP and \fBleft\fP or \fBright\fP
.PP
arrow together) to browse pages of the suggestion window; the
suggestion window is a window that holds a previously inputted
data that are compatible with the string the user is typing into
the command window;
.IP \(em 4
if suggestions are gemini URI press \fBTAB\fP to input the current
.PP
selected suggestion;
.IP \(em 4
if suggestion window is \fBnot\fP rendered, pressing \fBup\fP and \fBdown\fP
.PP
arrow keys will cycle through input history, if there is not a
suggestion window rendered pressing \fBup\fP and \fBdown\fP will scroll
on suggestions.
.SS "Folders"
.PP
A folder is an object to groups messages for each timeline an
arbitrary number of folders can be created, when the last message of
a folder is deleted the folder is deleted as well.
.SH "Configuration"
.PP
The configuration of tinmop is based on text files but there are
available two different kind with different syntax and scope.
.IP \(em 4
a key-value text files used to configure the access credential to
.PP
server and visual theme of the program (simple configuration);
.IP \(em 4
common lisp source code. Used to write module (AKA plugin) and to
.PP
configure keybindings to interact with the software.
.PP
The distribution of this software comes with a bunch of pre-backed
configuration files but user is expected to write a simple file with
their credential to log into the server.
.SS "Simple configuration"
.PP
This is a simple file with each entry in a single line that look like this:
.RS
.nf
\fC
# a line starting with a '#' is a comment
# a file can be included in another with this directive:
# use "shared.conf"
# The server instance name
server = server address
# your username
username = username
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
Not incidentally the information in the example above are the
absolute minimum the user has to provide before starts the program
and connect to pleroma (to use tinmop as a gemini browser only an
empty file will suffice): the name you chose when you made the
account on the server and the address of the server.
.PP
As you can see a line starting with a \fB#\fP is considered comment and
skipped by the program
.PP
The file with this credential are confidential and must be put into
user's home directory under the path
\fC$HOME/.local/share/tinmop/main.conf\fP. Probably the directory
\fCtinmop\fP does not exists on user system, if it does not exists must
be created manually.
.PP
If the program was installed correctly two other files with simple
semantics are located in your system wide configuration directory
(usually \fC/etc/tinmop/\fP), please check these files for more
information, as they are extensively commented.
.PP
Is worth mentioning again that, without an user configuration file,
the program can be used as gemini client (see the "-G" command line
switch on top of this manual).
.SS "Lisp program"
.PP
These files contains Common lisp (see \fIhttps://common-lisp.net/\fP)
source code. And are used both as a way to configure the program
and to write module for tinmop itself.
.PP
These files are the only way to configure program's keybindings:
sequence of pressing button to fire command commands (do not worry
it is not too difficult!).
.PP
These files must be a valid Common Lisp program to allow the
program to even starts. Again this is actual source code that is
loaded end executed by the main program; be careful, do not copy
and paste code from untrusted sources as this could results in a
\fBsevere\fP security damage.
.PP
Again in the configuration directory there is a (commented) file
named \fCinit.lisp\fP that user can use as their starting point to
write their files. A custom init file, or other module files, must
be located into the directory \fC$HOME/.local/share/tinmop/\fP.
.PP
However there is no need to write their own init file if user is
happy with the provided one by the package maintainers.
.SH "First time start"
.PP
After the configuration the program can be started but we are not
ready to join the fediverse yet because tinmop need to be \fItrusted\fP by
the server. Just follows the instruction on screen to register the
application with your instance. This procedure should be followed
once: when the program starts for the first time (but please note
that there must be a file with valid credentials available).
.PP
There is no additional steps to follow to connect to gemspace,
instead.
.SH "Gempub support"
.PP
Tinmop maintains a gempub library scanning a directory on your
file system (library directory); the library directory path can be
set using the configuration directive:
.RS
.nf
\fC
gempub.directory.library = /absolute/path/to/your/gempub/library
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
the default value is \fC$XDG_DATA_HOME\fP (usually something like
\fC$HOME/.local/share/tinmop/\fP).
.PP
Using \fB'M-g g l'\fP the library can be inspected using a simple query
language (similar to SQL) that search in the metadata of the gempub
files, example of query follows:
.RS
.nf
\fC
where author like "calvino" and published < "1980"
where author like "cal%" or published = "1980"
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
Valid search keys are:
.IP \(em 4
title;
.IP \(em 4
author;
.IP \(em 4
language;
.IP \(em 4
description;
.IP \(em 4
publish-date;
.IP \(em 4
revision-date;
.IP \(em 4
published;
.IP \(em 4
copyright.
.PP
You can use \fC< > = != <= >= like\fP operators for comparison and the
two logical operator \fCand\fP and \fCor\fP, the character \fC%\fP act like a
wildcard and means: \fI'any sequence of character'\fP.
.PP
Note that the right hand side of the operator must be wrapped in
quotes.
.PP
After the search is performed a window with the results is shown,
selecting an item of this window will open the gempub and will add
all its table of contents on the tour mode, so that the book could
be browsed.
.PP
For more information on tour mode see below or use
\fB'C-h A <enter> tour mode'\fP.
.SH "Tour mode"
.PP
Tinmop maintains a queue of links that can be then visited by the
user, this queue is called \fBtour\fP.
.PP
There are two ways to add a link to the tour:
.IP \(em 4
when a link window is open and focused pressing \fBt\fP will start a
.PP
prompt for link indices to be saved in the tour; the prompt expect
a simple, comma or space separated, list of indices or index range, index
range is a couple of index separated by a dash, example below:
.RS
.nf
\fC1 2 5 8-12
\fP
.fi
.RE
.PP
The string above will save the link index number 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9,
10, 11, 12 to the tour.
.PP
The other way to add links to the tour is using the command
\fB'gemlog-add-unread-posts-tour'\fP (default keychord: \fB'M-g s t a'\fP)
that will add all the unread posts to the tour.
.PP
There are a few more useful command to manipulate the tour:
.TP
\fBnext-tour-link\fP
(\fB'M-t t'\fP or just 't' if a gemini window is focused)
.PP
follows the next link in the tour;
.TP
\fBshow-tour-links\fP
(\fB'M-t s'\fP or just \fB'T'\fP if a gemini window is focused)
.PP
shows the contents of the tour in a link window
.TP
\fBclean-all-tour\fP
(\fB'M-t c'\fP)
.TP
\fBshuffle-tour\fP
(\fB'M-t S'\fP) shuffle the contents of the tour
.SH "How to get more help"
.PP
For help with pleroma visit the pleroma website:
.PP
\fIhttps://pleroma.social/\fP
.PP
For information about gemini:
.PP
$ tinmop -o gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space
.PP
The program has an inline help (default binding for help is "?"), a
manpage (default binding to view the manpage is "C-h m") and inline
help can be searched (default: "C-h A").
.PP
Moreover you can have some useful hint at the program web page:

.SH "Privacy"
.PP
The author of this software collects no user data information with
this software.

with other actors but just after the user allowed it to do so.
.PP
It is the user responsibility to checks the privacy conditions of the
instance this software connect to.
