@SYNTAX:bind@

Bind some action to specified keystroke. Remember that all characters
in keystrokes are case-sensitive! Uppercase letter usually means that
you need to keep SHIFT pressed to get the key to work.

Most most commonly used keystrokes are:

 ^X - Ctrl-X
 meta-x - Meta-x (Meta is quite often Alt-key in PCs, ESC-x works too)

Irssi has by default also defined several other keys which you can use:

 return                  - The return/enter key
 space, backspace        - Space / backspace
 up, down, left, right   - Arrow keys
 cleft, cright           - Ctrl-left/right
 home, end, prior, next  - prior = Page Up, next = Page Down
 insert, delete

The keystroke can contain as many key presses as you want, and you can
define names for different key sequences to use them more easily (the
keys above are done like that). For example, you may want to manage
windows with ^W key, so that ^W^C creates new window, ^W^K kills the
active window, etc. you may do it like:

 /BIND ^W^C /WINDOW NEW HIDE
 /BIND ^W^K /WINDOW KILL

But maybe you wish to give these binds to other people who want to use
some other key than ^W, then it would be better done as:

 /BIND ^W key window
 /BIND window-^C /WINDOW NEW HIDE
 /BIND window-^K /WINDOW KILL


Command can be one of:

  command - Run any /COMMAND (you could use /COMMAND directly without
                              specifying this)

(Cursor movement)
  backward_character
  forward_character
  backward_word
  forward_word
  beginning_of_line
  end_of_line

(Scrollback movement)
  scroll_backward - Previous page
  scroll_forward - Next page
  scroll_start - Beginning of the window
  scroll_end - End of the window

(Switching windows)
  change_window
  previous_window
  next_window
  upper_window
  lower_window
  active_window - Go to next window with the highest activity
  next_window_item - Next channel/query. In empty windows change
                     to next server
  previous_window_item - Previous channel/query. In empty windows change
                         to previous server

(History)
  backward_history
  forward_history

(Deleting text)
  backspace
  delete_character
  delete_next_word
  delete_previous_word
  delete_to_next_space
  delete_to_previous_space

(Word completion)
  word_completion
  erase_completion
  check_replaces - Check word replaces

(Misc)
  nothing - use this to disable a built-in key
  refresh_screen
  yank_from_cutbuffer - "Undelete" line
  transpose_characters - Swap current and previous character
  transpose_words - Swap current and previous word
  capitalize_word - Capitalize word from current position
  downcase_word - Downcase word from current position
  upcase_word - Upcase word from current position
  escape_char - Insert the next character exactly as-is to input line
  insert_text - Insert data to entry line, data may contain $variables.
  stop_irc - Send SIGSTOP to client (^Z)

Examples:

Clear screen:
  /BIND meta-c /CLEAR

People with qwertz layout probably want to swap meta-y and meta-z:
  /BIND meta-z change_window 16
  /BIND -delete meta-y
