+profile: SàT profile handling
+=============================
+
+Profiles are the names associated with accounts in SàT, for more informations you can
+check :ref:`glossary`. The `profile` commands help you create/delete/modify and manage
+profiles.
+
+
+connect
+=======
+
+Unsurprisingly this command connects your profile, i.e. log-in your XMPP account. This
+command uses :ref:`jp-common_profile` common commands, so you can use either ``-c,
+--connect`` to connect to XMPP server, or ``--start-session`` if you want to start SàT
+profile session without connecting to XMPP server (for instance if you want to modify
+parameters without connecting to XMPP server).
+
+Note that :ref:`jp-common_profile` common commands are available in commands needing a
+connected profile, ``jp profile connect`` is interesting if you only want to connect your
+profile/start a session.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Connect the default profile::
+
+  $ jp profile connect -c
+
+
+disconnect
+==========
+
+Disconnect your profile from XMPP server. There is no option beside the
+:ref:`jp-common_profile` common options.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Disconnect the profile ``pierre``::
+
+  $ jp profile disconnect -p pierre
+
+
+create
+======
+
+Create a new SàT profile. The only mandatory argument is the profile name, but you'll
+probably want to associate an XMPP jid with ``-j JID, --jid JID`` and a profile password
+with ``-p PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD``. By default, profile password will be used for
+XMPP password (see note below), but you may specify XMPP password with ``-x PASSWORD,
+--xmpp-password PASSWORD``.
+
+SàT is also capable to manage components, which can be seen as XMPP server independent
+plugins. To create a component profile, you'll have to use ``-C COMPONENT, --component
+COMPONENT`` where ``COMPONENT`` is the component entry point (check the documentation of
+the component that you want to use to get its entry point).
+
+.. note::
+
+   profile password and XMPP password are not the same: the profile password is the
+   password of your SàT profile, while the XMPP password is the one checked by your XMPP
+   server. If specify a jid with ``--jid`` and you don't specify an XMPP password, the
+   profile password will be used by default.
+
+   The reason to have distinct password is that you may use a different password for
+   profile, including an empty one if you want SàT to connect your profile without
+   having to enter a password. Also the XMPP password is encrypted in database using the
+   profile password (which is not stored in database, only a hash is kept).
+
+
+.. note::
+
+   passwords in jp are currently specified directly on the command-line and not prompted,
+   this is not safe from a security point of view as people can see it on the screen, it
+   may stay in your shell history, or visible on process list. Keep that in mind if you're
+   in a public environment or on a public machine. This will be improved for SàT 0.8.
+
+examples
+--------
+
+Nestor wants to create a profile for its account on ``example.org``, he specifies a
+profile password only, so it will also be used as the XMPP password::
+
+  $ jp profile create nestor -j nestor@example.org -p some_password
+
+Create a component profile for the file sharing component (whose entry point is
+``file_sharing``). The jid of the service is specified with ``--jid`` (note that we don't
+use a node as it is a jid of a component) and the ``--xmpp-password`` is the shared
+secret. Here the profile password is kept empty to not have to enter manually the XMPP
+password each time we connect the service::
+
+  $ jp profile create file_sharing -j files.example.org -p "" --xmpp-password
+  some_shared_secret -C file_sharing
+
+
+default
+=======
+
+This command simply prints the default profile (i.e. the profile used when none is
+specified with ``-p PROFILE, --profile PROFILE``). The default profile is either the first
+one that you've created, or the one you have explicitly set as default.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Print default profile::
+
+  $ jp profile default
+
+
+delete
+======
+
+Delete a profile and all its associated data. This delete the SàT profile and associated
+data (i.e. local data), but doesn't request the XMPP server to delete anything.
+
+By default a confirmation is requested, use ``-f, --force`` to avoid it (be cautious with
+this option).
+
+example
+-------
+
+Delete the profile of Pierre::
+
+  $ jp profile delete pierre
+
+
+info
+====
+
+Display information on a profile. For now, only the registered jid is shown, and
+optionally the XMPP password. To display the XMPP password, use ``--show-password`` but be
+careful that nobody can see your screen, as **this password will be shown in clear text**.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Show jid and XMPP password for default profile::
+
+  $ jp profile info --show-password
+
+
+list
+====
+
+Show all profiles. You can use ``-c, --clients`` to show only client profiles, and ``-C,
+--components`` to show only component profiles.
+
+example
+-------
+
+Show all profiles::
+
+  $ jp profile list
+
+
+modify
+======
+
+Update an existing profile. You can use this command to change profile password (with ``-w
+PASSWORD, --password PASSWORD``) or even disable it (with ``--disable-password``, this is
+equivalent to using an empty profile password ; be cautious with this option, see the note
+below).
+
+With ``-j JID, --jid JID`` and ``-x PASSWORD, --xmpp-password PASSWORD`` you can change
+XMPP jid and password.
+
+This command can also be used to select the default password, use the ``-D, --default``
+flag for that.
+
+.. note::
+
+   Be cautious with ``--disable-password`` that means that no password will be needed with
+   any frontend of SàT to use this profile, and that XMPP password will be easy to
+   retrieve for anybody having an access to the machine where SàT is installed
+
+examples
+--------
+
+Pierre has changed server, he can update his jid and password like this::
+
+  $ jp profile modify -p pierre -j pierre@example.org -x new_password
+
+Use ``louise`` as default profile::
+
+  $ jp profile modify -p louise -D
+
+Disable profile password for default profile (be cautious, see the note above)::
+
+  $ jp profile modify --disable-password
