DESCRIPTION

18       Dianara is a Pump.io application for the desktop. With it, you can man‐
19       age your Pump.io account without using a web browser.  You can also  do
20       things  that  the  web  interface  can't do at this point, like editing
21       posts and comments, or uploading audio and video.
22
23
24       What it does:
25
26       - Posting text (with some HTML formatting), to Followers, Public,
27         custom person lists created by you, or specific people, in any combi‐
28       nation.
29
30       - Uploading pictures, audio, video, and other files.
31
32       -  Showing  different  timelines, with configurable number of posts per
33       page,
34         moving forward  and  backward  in  pages,  or  jumping  to  any  page
35       directly.
36
37       - Liking, commenting, sharing, editing and deleting posts.
38
39       - Liking, editing and deleting comments.
40
41       - Contact listing, following and unfollowing, either by entering their
42         webfinger address, through buttons in the lists, or via avatar menus.
43
44       -  Editing  your  profile,  changing  your  avatar, setting your e-mail
45       address.
46
47       - Watching the "Meanwhile" feed and interacting with posts from it.
48         Also the "Mentions" and  "Actions"  feeds,  showing  only  activities
49       related to
50         you, or done by you.
51
52       - Filter out unwanted posts, or highlight them according to some rules.
53
54       -  Popup  notifications  when  there  are new posts, or new "Meanwhile"
55       activities.
56
57       - And more!

USAGE TIPS

63       - Press F1 in the program to read the general help.
64
65       - You can set "public posting" as the default in the Configuration win‐
66       dow.
67
68       -  There  are  tooltips  everywhere, so if you hover over a button or a
69       text
70         field with your mouse, you'll probably see some extra information.
71         This is specially useful in the "Meanwhile" feed.
72
73       - When publishing a note or posting a comment, you can send using the
74         keyboard, by pressing Control+Enter.
75
76       - You can use Control+Up/Down/PgUp/PgDown/Home/End to scroll the  time‐
77       line.
78         Use  Control+Left/Right  to  go forward and backwards in the timeline
79       pages.
80         Press Control+G to jump to any page.
81
82       - You can click on the avatar of a post's author to get some options.
83         This also works in the comments, and in the Meanwhile feed.
84
85       - If a post is of "image" type, you can click on the image  to  see  it
86       full size.
87
88       - You can hide/show the side panel by pressing F9.
89         Most items in the "Meanwhile" column have a "+" button to open the
90         referenced post.
91
92       - Adding titles to your posts will make the "Meanwhile" feed and the e-
93       mail
94         notifications a lot more useful!
95
96       - You can temporarily stop (and restart) the auto-updating of timelines
97         by clicking on the "state" icon in the status bar, or by using the
98         Session > Auto-update Timelines option.
99
100       - If you connect to the Internet through a proxy, you can set it up  in
101       the
102         program settings.
103
104       - Dianara offers a D-Bus interface that allows some control from other
105         applications.  The  interface  is  at org.nongnu.dianara, and you can
106       access
107         it with tools such as qdbus or  dbus-send.  It  offers  methods  like
108       'toggle'
109         and 'post'.

COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS

114       -  You  can  use the --config (or -c) command line parameter to specify
115       that a
116         different configuration file be used.
117         For example, if you run "dianara --config myotheraccount", the config
118       file
119         in use will be "Dianara_myotheraccount.conf" instead of the usual
120         "Dianara.conf".  This  way, you can switch between different accounts
121       easily.
122         You can even run two instances of Dianara at the same time.
123         You can use any name you wish to identify the configuration,  but  it
124       must be
125         one word, no spaces.
126
127       -  Use  the  --debug  (or  -d)  command line parameter to have detailed
128       debugging
129         information on what the program is doing.
130
131       - If your server does not support HTTPS,  you  can  use  the  --nohttps
132       parameter.
133
134       -  If you need to connect to a server with a invalid SSL configuration,
135       such
136         as a self-signed certificate or an expired certificate, you  can  use
137       the
138         --ignoresslerrors parameter. This is not recommended.
