Each command begins with a slash
character (/) and type them into the same text field at the bottom of the
chat screen. We use the term "channel" for room. Room and
channel have the same meaning.
/join 20Something:
This command joins the existing room 20Something
and if 20Something doesn't exist you will create it.
You can only be on one room at a time.
/who
This gives you the nicknames of people
in the current channel only, with some information about them.
Hello members.
Once you join a channel, you can speak
to everybody on the channel by typing any line without a leading slash
character. Everybody else will see "<YourName> Hello
members"
/me says hi.
Everybody in the channel sees "*
YourName says hi." This is called an action.
/whois SomeOne
This command gives you information on
username SomeOne
/msg SomeOne message
Sends a private message to SomeOne
only. This is sometimes called "whispering" since nobody
else can hear you except SomeOne.
