Basic Usage and Navigation

Group Explorer

When you initially open the app you will see the Group Explorer with the group list pane highlighted in red:

Group Explorer

Properties of the group are displayed below in the Group details pane.

From here you can choose a group by moving up (k) and down (j) using vim-style motion or jump immediately by typing the row number (04). The channel list pane will change automatically as you change the group.

Use "Inspect" (i) to select a group and move the focus to the channel list pane.

Channel List

Properties of the channel are displayed below in the Channel details pane.

Social Lounge (Chat Reader)

Use "Read" (r) to read the latest messages of the currently selected channel.

NOTE: This is currently slow and will take a couple of seconds to pop up. There is no caching or performance improvements of any kind yet. Furthermore, quite a bit of the parsing logic is still here in mb10 when it should be in the airlock itself. Expect this to improve in the future.

Channel List

Graph Explorer

Graph Explorer

From here you can choose a graph by moving up (k) and down (j) using vim-style motion or jump immediately by typing the row number (04). The node list pane will change automatically as you change the graph. Use "Inspect" (i) to select a graph and move the focus to the node list pane.

Node Explorer

If, as shown in the picture, the node you as inspecting has children, you can "Dive" (d) into those children and look at them.

Graph Explorer

Use "Pop" (p) to return to the parent node. You can return focus to the graph list pane by pressing (g).

Changing your view

By pressing "Switch App" (X) you will swap between the Social Lounge (Reader), the Graph Explorer, and the Group Explorer.
