       Tkabber  is a GUI client for XMPP (Jabber) instant messaging protocol. It provides full support for basic
       XMPP specifications as well as many extensions (XEPs) including multi-user conferencing, file  transfers,
       extensive  handling  of  privacy  lists  and  much more.  Tkabber is written in Tcl/Tk and thus is easily
       extensible.

       The tkabber-remote program can be used to remotely control a running instance of Tkabber  by  sending  it
       predefined commands or Tcl scripts for execution.

       This  manual  page  was  written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a
       manual page.

       The commands which can be used with the -command command-line options are:

       list-commands
              Prints a list of all the commands supported by the -command command-line option.

       set-proxy-profileprofile
              Sets an active network proxy profile by its name.  The profile must be already configured.

       set-statusstatus [textstatus]
              Sets the availability (presence) status of the user.

              Available status codes are:

              available
                     The user is available.

              away   The user is temporarily away.

              chat   The user is actively interested in chatting.

              dnd    The user does not want to be disturbed (dnd = "Do Not Disturb").

              xa     The user is away for an exteneded period of time (xa = "eXtended Away").

              The  optional  textstatus  argument  can  be  used  to set a textual message which accompanies the
              availability status.  (The message's text must form a single argument, so proper quoting should be
              used, if necessary, when calling tkabber-remote from a shell).

              Note that sending this command while the receiving Tkabber instance  is  offline  (not  connected)
              will  not  make  it  connect;  the  status will merely be recorded and announced when Tkabber goes
              online.

       Executing a command prints the PID of the process which received and executed the command, and  then  the
       string representation of the Tcl value the command returned.

       To make a running Tkabber instance execute an arbitrary Tcl script  use  the  -eval  command-line  option
       followed  by  that script's text.  (The script's text must form a single argument passed to this program,
       so proper quoting should be used, if necessary, when calling tkabber-remote from a shell).

       Executing a script prints the PID of the process which received and executed the  script,  and  then  the
       string representation of the Tcl value the script returned.
