Console

What is the console

The console is a powerful tool. There you can execute commands for your QuakeWorld client interpretation, or the server. You can define aliases, define binds to keys, connect to servers, send messages to server, etc. These commands are different for each QuakeWorld clients. Usually there's a list of available commands for each client in it's documentation

How to use

You can enter the console by pressing the [~] (tilde) key (positioned at the left of [1] and up of [Tab]). If you start writing a command and press the [TAB], the console will print every command available with the prefix you entered. Remember to save your config every time you make a change, so the next time you load the client, the change you made is done (the command depends on the client you are using - on ezQuake is "cfg_save").
