Connecting to XMPP servers
First, you'll need to register for a free XMPP account at one of the public XMPP
servers listed on https://xmpp.net/directory.php .
Pick a server with A grade security from the list and follow the link to learn how
to register. You should end up with an account username and a password.
Type the following command to connect, but replace [username@someservice.com]
with your account username:
> /connect [username@someservice.com]
You will then be prompted for your password, and once successfully connected your
online status indicator in the upper right corner of the screen will change accordingly.
Getting around Profanity
Now that you're connected we need to find your friends. When anyone in your
contact list signs in or out of chat, you'll receive status notifications. To view your
contact list, use the /who command or type /who online to list friends who are
currently signed in.
To send a friend a message and open up a conversation, use the following command:
> /msg "Your Friend" Greetings friend!
Note that your friend's name needs to be in quotes if there's a space. Profanity will
wrap it in quotes for you if you type the first few letters and press Tab .
A new chat window will open up and come into focus, as indicated in the window
activity bar in the lower right corner of the screen. Any text you type in this window
will be sent to your friend when pressing Enter . Window number 1 is used for system
messages and output from commands, while the rest are designated chat windows.
