+You can change any keyboard binding that terminal lets irssi know
+about. It doesn't let it know everything, so for example
+shift-backspace can't be bound unless you modify xterm resources

+
+/HELP bind tells pretty much everything there is to know about
+keyboard bindings. However, there's the problem of how to bind some
+non-standard keys. They might differ a bit with each terminal, so
+you'll need to find out what exactly the keypress produces. Easiest
+way to check that would be to see what it prints in "cat". Here's
+an example for pressing F1 key:

You probably don't like Irssi's default settings. I don't like them.
But I'm still convinced that they're pretty good defaults. Here's some
