-- Set up `~/.skyped/skyped.conf`: Create the `~/.skyped` directory, copy
- `skyped.conf` and `skyped.cnf` from
- `/usr/local/etc/skyped/skyped.conf` to `~/.skyped`, adjust `username`
- and `password`. The `username` should be your Skype login and the
- `password` can be whatever you want, but you will have to specify that
- one when adding the Skype account to BitlBee (see later).

-NOTE: Here, and later - `/usr/local/etc` can be different on your installation

-account add skype <user> <pass>
-account skype set server localhost

-<user> should be your Skype account name, <pass> should be the one you declared
-in `skyped.conf`. If you want to run skyped on a remote machine, replace
-`localhost` with the name of the machine.

-If you are running skyped on a custom port:

-account skype set port <port>
