This is implemented using Emacs' `tabulated-list-mode`, so you can sort the columns (either by using the mouse or `tabulated-list-sort`). A thread is opened by pressing the Enter key. If you wish to refresh to thread-list, just invoke `revert-buffer` (bound go "g"). # Thread View After opening a thread and waiting for it to load, you can navigate it using the default movement keys of your Emacs installation (ie. Usually arrow keys, `C-n/C-p/C-v/M-v/...`). Beyond these, the thread view offers a few more options for easier navigation: |: Default Key :| Command | Description | |-----------------|---------------|-----------------| | n | `sbbs-read-next` | Move point to next thread | | p | `sbbs-read-previous` | Move point to previous thread | | Tab | `forward-button` | Move to next link or reference | | Return | `push-button` | Open link or show only referenced posts | | a | `sbbs-show-pop` | Undo last hiding | | A | `sbbs-show-all`| Undo all hiding | | g | `revert-buffer` | Reload a thread | Post-hiding supports references such as `>>3`, but also multiple posts `>>5,6,9` and ranges `>>14-18`. # Compose View If you want to reply to a thread, or create a new one in `sbbs`, you will need to use to compose view. This is invoked by pressing "c" (`sbbs-view-compose`) in the board view, or "r" (`sbbs-read-reply`) in the thread view. Both open a new editable buffer, that supports markup and a few markup keybindings (they are quite straightforward, and similar to AucTeX. Use "C-h b" for more details). When you want to submit your thread or reply, press "C-c C-c" (`sbbs-compose-create`), and you're done. Z b76e777db8b710e281c7d9d2e3551454
