[edit] The Console

The console lets you quickly perform operations on rhub without lots of clicking around. It also has the added benefit of being mobile, you can use it with your phone, or email, for example.

Once you learn the syntax for a few commands, you can use them in whichever medium is handy for you at the time. Rhub tries to provide console hints where possible, and we are trying to make it easier and easier to use.

The synatax used in the console is the same no matter what the medium. You can use SMS from your mobile phone, instant messages from MSN, GTalk or Jabber, email, or the web interface. See the Command Reference for a list of commands you can issue.
