Several times I've seen the question come up: after I've created and
configured a chatroom, how do I change that configuration later?
The short answer for Gaim is: /config
The longer answer: Gaim's Jabber protocol plugin contains a number of
slash commands, some of which access functionality not available
through the menus. These appear to be patterned after IRC clients and
include:
ban
clear
config
configure
debug
help
invite
join
kick
me
msg
nick
part
register
say
topic
A "/help" will list the commands.
I've seen conversations on the Gaim development list (not specifically
related to Jabber) where some developers voiced a strong objection to
slash commands, so this may be an area where Gaim 2.0 is very
different.
I don't know if Adium X or iChat is substantially different from Gaim
in this area.
