WebChat supports a subset of the command-line syntax used in CheetaChat and
Yahoo! Chat, as well as supporting commands of its own. Typing any of the
following words at the start of a line of spoken text will perform the requested
action.
| /think <thought> |
Expresses a thought, in the form
". o O (<thought>)".
eg /think WebChat is best would
display as
. o O (WebChat is best) |
| /goto <user> |
Takes you to the same room as the specified user, providing the room is
not a private room.
eg /goto joe would take you
to the same room as 'joe'. |
| /invite <user> |
Invites the specified user to the room which you are in. |
| /away <message> |
Tells the room that you are away - you may leave the message blank if
you wish. If you do not, your message will appear as follows:
<user> is away (<message>) |
| /back |
Tells the room that you are back. |
| /tell <user> <message> |
Sends a private message to the specified user. If <message> is
blank the private message window will appear and you will need to type
