# NAME
aerc - the world's best email client
# SYNOPSIS
_aerc_
For a guided tutorial, use *:help tutorial* from aerc, or *man aerc-tutorial*
from your terminal.
# RUNTIME COMMANDS
To execute a command, press ':' to bring up the command interface. Commands may
also be bound to keys, see *aerc-config*(5) for details. In some contexts, such
as the terminal emulator, ';' is used to bring up the command interface.
Different commands work in different contexts, depending on the kind of tab you
have selected.
## GLOBAL COMMANDS
These commands work in any context.
*cd* <directory>

*pwd*

*term* [command...]
Opens a new terminal tab with a shell running in the current working
directory, or the specified command.
*prev-tab* [n], *next-tab* [n]
Cycles to the previous or next tab in the list, repeating n times
(default: 1).
*quit*

*cf* <folder>
