23 .SH "SYNOPSIS"

31 .SH "DESCRIPTION"
32
33
34 You can permanently set an option by putting it in the ~/\&.tigrc file\&. The file consists of a series of \fIcommands\fR\&. Each line of the file may contain only one command\&.
35
36
37 The hash mark (\fI#\fR) is used as a \fIcomment\fR character\&. All text after the comment character to the end of the line is ignored\&. You can use comments to annotate your initialization file\&.
38
39 .SH "SET COMMAND"
40
41
42 A few selective variables can be configured via the set command\&. The syntax is:
43
44 .nf
45 \fIset\fR variables \fI=\fR value
46 .fi
47
48
49 Examples:
50
51 .nf
52 set show\-rev\-graph = yes # Show revision graph?
53 set line\-number\-interval = 5 # Interval between line numbers
54 set tab\-size = 8 # Number of spaces pr tab
55 set encoding = "UTF\-8" # Commit encoding
56 .fi
57
58
59 The type of variables are either bool, int, and string\&.
60
61 .TP
62 Valid bool values
63 To set a bool variable to true use either "1", "true", or "yes"\&. Any other value will set the variable to false\&.
64
65 .TP
66 Valid int values
67 A non\-negative integer\&.
68
69 .TP
70 Valid string values
71 A string of characters\&. Optionally, use either ' or " as delimiters\&.
72
73 .SS "Variables"
74
75
76 The following variables can be set:
77
78 .TP
79 \fIshow\-rev\-graph\fR (bool)
80 Show revision graph in the main view on startup\&. Can be toggled with \fIg\fR\&.
81
82 .TP
83 \fIline\-number\-interval\fR (int)
84 Interval between line numbers\&. Note, you have to toggle on line numbering with \fIn\fR or the \-n command line option\&. The default is to number every line\&.
85
86 .TP
87 \fItab\-size\fR (int)
88 Number of spaces per tab\&. The default is 8 spaces\&.
89
90 .TP
91 \fIcommit\-encoding\fR (string)
92 The encoding used for commits\&. The default is UTF\-8\&. Not this option is shadowed by the "i18n\&.commitencoding" option in \&.git/config\&.
93
94 .SH "BIND COMMAND"
95
96
97 Using bind commands keys can be mapped to an action when pressed in a given key map\&. The syntax is:
98
99 .nf
100 \fIbind\fR \fIkeymap\fR \fIkey\fR \fIaction\fR
101 .fi
102
103
104 Examples:
105
106 .nf
107 # A few keybindings
108 bind main w scroll\-line\-up
109 bind main s scroll\-line\-down
110 bind main space enter
111 bind diff a previous
112 bind diff d next
113 bind diff b move\-first\-line
114 .fi
115
116
117 Keys are mapped by first searching the keybindings for the current view, then the keybindings for the \fIgeneric\fR keymap, and last the default keybindings\&. Thus, the view keybindings shaddow the generic keybindings which shaddow the built\-in keybindings\&.
118
119 .TP
120 Keymaps
121 Valid keymaps are: \fImain\fR, \fIdiff\fR, \fIlog\fR, \fIhelp\fR, \fIpager\fR, and \fIgeneric\fR\&. Use \fIgeneric\fR to set key mapping in all keymaps\&.
122
123 .TP
124 Key values
125 Key values should never be quoted\&. Use either the ASCII value or one of the following symbolic key names\&. Symbolic key names are case insensitive, Use \fIHash\fR to bind to the # key, since the hash mark is used as a comment character\&.
126
127 \fIEnter\fR, \fISpace\fR, \fIBackspace\fR, \fITab\fR, \fIEscape\fR, \fILeft\fR, \fIRight\fR, \fIUp\fR, \fIDown\fR, \fIInsert\fR, \fIDelete\fR, \fIHash\fR, \fIHome\fR, \fIEnd\fR, \fIPageUp\fR, \fIPageDown\fR, \fIF1\fR, \fIF2\fR, \fIF3\fR, \fIF4\fR, \fIF5\fR, \fIF6\fR, \fIF7\fR, \fIF8\fR, \fIF9\fR, \fIF10\fR, \fIF11\fR, \fIF12\fR\&.
128
129 .TP
130 Action names
131 Valid action names are described below\&. Note, all names are case\-insensitive, and you may use \fI\-\fR, \fI_\fR, and \fI\&.\fR interchangeably, e\&.g\&. "view\-main", "View\&.Main", and "VIEW_MAIN" are the same\&.
