I will give a few user tips here from the ? blue button pop-up command explanation list.........

Welcome

Do not use brackets. Brackets are shown to differentiate commands from parameters.

Color Button

This button allows you to change your current text color.

Timestamp Button

This button allows you to enable or disable timestamps. The local time is shown by each one's name of their locality.

Copy Content Button

This button allows you to copy content from the chat room. Where it goes in which cache storage I don't know yet. I had to highlight/paste the main chat monologue of mine to paste it here because it didn't get saved as expected to my clipboard.

When clicked, the Copy Content button will display a popup window allowing you to easily copy text entered within the chat room (both private and public messages may be copied) by right-clicked, or using either the Ctrl-C (PC) or Alt-C (Apple) keyboard commands to copy text to your system clipboard.

Font Zoom In Button

This button allows you to increase the current font size. The decrease button is there, too.

Private messages

A feature which I like is being able to send a private message(s) to one in the crowd of writers in the main chat room. The others do not see the message.

To send private messages, use the /msg command. I.e., to send the private message Hello, there to the user Timmy, you would type:

/msg Timmy Hello, there.

Private messages are shown in a seperate color within the display to be easily differentiated.

Float and Dock

Click the Float/Dock button to load the chat room into a separate window. This feature allows you to conserve screen space while you chat by minimizing the browser window that you floated the chat room from. When you wish to return the chatroom to it's browser, simply reclick the Float/Dock button.

Note: With most modern web browsers, you must keep the browser window that the chat room was floated from open. Closing this window, or changing the web address may cause the chat software to close.

I was a little late tonight but Sammy and I had an interesting test conversation last night. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[aka]

Your message gave me a cute image of Sammy sitting at his computer in the living room and you as wife sitting at your computer in the study room while the both of your two cheerily compute to one another in the ClubChat room.

ROFLOL! Turmeric

[Nan]

Even worse than that T, our computers are both in the study room so we are sitting at right angles to each other ! He has a wonderful sense of humor and an answer for everything I come up with , so having "written" conversations can be very entertaining.

ManOhMan.... That is a real laugh!

It sure would be neat to catch you two conversing in Chat room live. But the twirling circle of timezones throws a lot of us off kilter with planing when entering the room.
