-I<Stuff>
-
-=head1 COLOURS
-
-Irssi's colors that you can use in text formats, hilights, etc:
-
- C1 C2 C3 Text Colour (C1) Text Colour (C2) Background (C3)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
- %k %K %0 black dark grey black
- %r %R %1 red bold red red
- %g %G %2 green bold green green
- %y %Y %3 yellow bold yellow yellow
- %b %B %4 blue bold blue blue
- %m %M %5 magenta bold magenta magenta
- %p %P magenta (think: purple)
- %c %C %6 cyan bold cyan cyan
- %w %W %7 white bold white white
-
- %n %N Changes the color to "default color", removing
- all other coloring and formatting. %N is always
- the terminal's default color. %n is usually too,
- except in themes it changes to "previous color",
- ie. hello = "%Rhello%n" and "%G{hello} world"
- would print hello in red, and %n would turn back
- into %G making world green.
-
- %F Blinking on/off (think: flash)
- %U Underline on/off
- %8 Reverse on/off
- %9 %_ Bold on/off
- %: Insert newline
- %| Marks the indentation position
- %# Monospace font on/off (useful with lists and GUI)
- %% A single %

-=head1 VARIABLE SYNTAX
-
-Irssi supports a number of reserved, dynamic variables, sometimes
-referred to as I<expandos>. They are special in that the client is
-constantly updating their values automatically. There are also
-numerous variable modifiers available.
-
- Modifier Description
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
- $variable A normal variable, expanding to the first match of:
- | 1) an internal SET variable
- | 2) an environment variable
- $[num]variable Expands to the variables value, with 'num' width. If
- | the number is negative, the value is right-aligned.
- | The value is padded to meet the width with the
- | character given after number (default is space).
- | The value is truncated to specified width unless
- | '!' character precedes the number. If '.' character
- | precedes the number the value isn't padded, just
- | truncated.
- $#variable Expands to the number of words in $variable. If $variable
- | is omitted, it assumes $*
- $@variable Expands to the number of characters in $variable. if
- | $variable is omitted, it assumes $*
- $($subvariable) This is somewhat similar to a pointer, in that the
- | value of $subvar is taken as the name of the
- | variable to expand to. Nesting is allowed.
- ${expression} Permits the value to be embedded in another string
- | unambiguously.
- $!history! Expands to a matching entry in the client's command
- | history, wildcards allowed.
-
-B<TODO: provide some examples of the various forms of truncation/padding, etc>
-
-=head1 ALIAS AND FORMAT TEMPLATE ARGUMENTS
-
-Whenever an alias is called, these expandos are set to the arguments passed
-to it. If none of these expandos are used in the alias, or the C<$()> form
-shown above, any arguments passed will automatically be appended to the last
-command in the alias.
-
- Expando Description
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
- $* expands to all arguments passed to an alias
- $n expands to argument 'n' passed to an alias (counting from zero)
- $n-m expands to arguments 'n' through 'm' passed to an alias
- $n- expands to all arguments from 'n' on passed to an alias
- $-m expands to all arguments up to 'm' passed to an alias
- $~ expands to the last argument passed to an alias
-
-=head1 EXPANDOS (SPECIAL VARIABLES)
-
-These variables are set and updated dynamically by the client. The case of
-C<$A .. $Z> is important.
