[edit] Formatting

Psi supports basic formatting for both chats and normal messages.

Formatting rules:

• *bold*
• /italic/
• _underline_

You need to enable emoticons if you want formatting to be enabled. If you don't want emoticons to be showed, clear the list of emoticon sets.

Psi has planned support for XHTML-IM, a Jabber Enhancement Proposal which describes the allowed HTML set to be used in XMPP (Jabber). The port to Qt4 (planned for Psi 0.11) should ease up the implementation. New features are to be added after 0.11.

[edit] Using Tabbed Chats

Each chat is placed inside a tab. In a window, you will find a group of chats called tabset (a set of tabs).

Mouse actions (LMB, MMB, RMB - left/middle/right mouse button):

• LMB double-click - detach tab
• MMB drag inside the same tabset - move tab inside the same tabset
• LMB drag outside the current tabset, into another tabset - move tab into another tabset (it turned out not to be working in Windows, although it was coded with no platform specific code)

Keyboard shortcuts:

• Ctrl+Page Up/Down = previous/next tab (like in Firefox, iChat)
• Ctrl+W = close tab (like in Firefox)
• not yet implemented: Psi 0.10 is also planned to support Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab for previous/next tab - like all Windows applications
