i just recently installed the text-based aim client and i'm trying to figure out all the commands and how it functions.

There are many commands, depending on what you want to do. For a list of all commands, type

Code:

/help

That's exactly what you should get. If you want help on foo-command, type

Code:

/help foo-command

What exactly do you want to do with pork?

basically just run AIM and the foo-command thing isn't working

Code:

*** Help&#58; Error&#58; No such command or section&#58; foo-command

Then

Code:

/connect exampleuser

will connect you, Tab will toggle between the buddy list and the command interface, the up and down arrows select users on the buddy list, Enter starts a query with a highlighted buddy, and Alt + <number> switches the window to window number <number>.

Those are the basics. I'm not sure I answered your question; I don't even know if you asked a question.

thanks, that answer a few of the basic questions i had.
now i'm wondering about direct connecting and whatnot.

pork does not support direct-connect. You should read all of the /help commands and documentation that comes with pork.
