```
〉.info
config_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/config.yaml
roles_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/roles.yaml
messages_file /home/alice/.config/aichat/messages.md
role -
api_key sk-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
temperature -
save true
highlight true
proxy -
dry_run false
```
### Roles
We can let ChatGPT play a certain role through `prompt` to make it better generate what we want.
We can predefine a batch of roles in `roles.yaml`.
For example, we define a role.
```yaml
- name: shell
prompt: >
I want you to act as a linux shell expert.
I want you to answer only with bash code.
Do not write explanations.
```
Let ChatGPT answer questions in the role of a linux shell expert.
```
〉.role shell
〉resize app.png to 256x256
convert app.png -resize 256x256 app.png
〉 extract password protected app.zip to /tmp/app
unzip -P password app.zip -d /tmp/app
```

```
Welcome to aichat 0.4.0
Type ".help" for more information.
〉.help
.info Print the information
.set Modify the configuration temporarily
.role Select a role
.clear role Clear the currently selected role
.prompt Add prompt, aka create a temporary role
.history Print the history
.clear history Clear the history
.clear screen Clear the screen
.multiline Enter multiline editor mode
.copy Copy last reply message
.help Print this help message
.exit Exit the REPL
Press Ctrl+C to abort session, Ctrl+D to exit the REPL
```
- Modify the configuration temporarily
```
〉.set highlight false
〉.set save false
〉.set temperature 1.2
```
- Input multiline text
```
〉.multiline {convert json below to toml
::: {
::: "an": [
::: "arbitrarily",
::: "nested"
::: ],
::: "data": "structure"
::: }
::: }
```
- Use GPT Prompt
When you set up a prompt, every message sent later will carry the prompt.
```
〉.prompt {
::: I want you to translate the sentences I wrote into emojis.
::: I will write the sentence, and you will express it with emojis.
::: I don't want you to reply with anything but emoji.
::: }
Done
〉You are a genius
👉🧠💡👨🎓
〉I'm embarrassed
🙈😳
```
`.prompt` actually creates a temporary role called `%TEMP%` internally, so you run `.clear role` to clear the prompt.
When you are satisfied with the prompt, add it to `roles.yaml` for later use.
- Copy last reply message
The message may be highlighted, and when copied, you will find that they are different from the original Markdown text.
At this point you need to use `.copy` to copy the original text to the clipboard.
