<p>Eliminate large groups of buffers by saving them to a single page with Nyxt's <code>reduce-to-buffer</code> command. To use it, select all of the buffers you would like reduced, Nyxt will then:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add them to a list,</li>
|
|
<li>print the list's URLs + computationally generated summaries on a convenient page,</li>
|
|
<li>close the list of buffers.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h1 id="what-is-it-for-when-to-use-it">What is it for? When to use it?</h1>
|
|
<p>You can use <code>reduce-to-buffer</code> any time you need to compress a large group of buffers into an easily consumable form.</p>
|
|
<p>There are many possibilities, here are a few:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Do you want to save a group of buffers for later?</li>
|
|
<li>Do you want to easily clear up your current session without losing any potentially valuable links?</li>
|
|
<li>Would you like to document and save a list of buffers relating to a specific project you are working on?</li>
|
|
<li>Would you like a convenient format to easily share a set of links with a colleague?</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h1 id="how-to-use-it">How to use it?</h1>
|
|
<p>To begin, identify a list of buffers that you would like to compress. In this case, we will compress our research about various types of elephants.</p>

|
|
<p>Next, we select the buffers we would like reduced:</p>
|
|
<p><img src="../static/image/article/article-reduce-to-buffer-select-buffers.png" /></p>
|
|
<p>Finally, our buffers are reduced and (optionally) summarized:</p>

|
|
<p>We hope you enjoy <code>reduce-to-buffer</code>!</p>

|
<p>Thanks for reading :-)</p>
