Management of the customizations can also be performed from within your @code{.emacs} file.

Where there are special considerations for one or the other mode, they will be clearly highlighted. The purpose of Identica mode is to provide an easy method to send and view updates while working within a GNU Emacs environment. Thus, the command set detailed below is simple. If you are interested in more complex functionality, feel free to send suggestions through the Savannah project website. Additionally, keep up-to-date with the latest releases.
