A [new feature](https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat/pull/333) of `ssh-chat` is the ability to define locally what settings you would like to have in your `ssh-chat` session before connecting. The `ssh-chat` server will interpret your local variables and change settings to match yours accordingly (if they can be matched). Variables have to sent with the `SendEnv` flag accordingly.

Variables have to sent with the `SendEnv` flag accordingly, or the `SetEnv` flag.
## `SSHCHAT_THEME`
The simplest variable is the `SSHCHAT_THEME` variable which allows you to define what theme you would like for your session. This can be defined to match any theme defined within `ssh-chat`, so for example to connect using the `solarized` theme, which is normally activated by running `/theme solarized`, you can instead do the following:
```bash
$ ssh -o SetEnv SSHCHAT_THEME=solarized username@ssh.chat
$ ssh -o SetEnv "SSHCHAT_THEME=solarized" username@ssh.chat
```
Upon joining, your session's theme will automatically be `solarized`. This works for all themes (`mono`, `colors`, `hacker`, `solarized`, etc).

`ssh-chat` supports the ability to log messages with a datetime stamp next to each received message. This behavior is enabled by running a `/timestamp` command within the chat. It can be turned on before connecting by doing the following:
```bash
$ ssh -o SetEnv SSHCHAT_TIMESTAMP=1 username@ssh.chat
$ ssh -o SetEnv "SSHCHAT_TIMESTAMP=1" username@ssh.chat
```
It also supports the ability to pre-load a datetime format as well.

The `TERM` variable is meant to enable specific modes of `ssh-chat` which changes how messages are displayed when received. Currently, only a `bot` mode is supported [right now](https://github.com/shazow/ssh-chat/pull/341), which makes it easier for programs to be created to read messages from `ssh-chat` without having to interpret ANSI codes.
To turn on a specific mode, you can run the following:
```bash
$ ssh -o SetEnv TERM=bot username@ssh.chat
$ TERM=bot ssh.chat
# Or if you're not requesting a pty,
$ ssh -o SetEnv TERM=bot ssh.chat
```
