/me makes a comment
/me makes a comment</nowiki></code>
/emote makes a comment</pre>

What it does have beyond this, are keybindings, and this list collects the majority of known commands, functional or not. The original [http://www.publicdemands.co.uk/archive/index.php/t-689.html|2011 forum source] of this information (username: wibiti) pre-edited the list.

Many commands have been added or removed over the years, so assume this list is out of date and feel free to help improve the currency by discovering commands given in the Shortcuts menu. Do be careful about deciding to remove any commands, since they may appear non-functional if you are not in the correct context for the command to be used.

If you absolutely, positively have to get someone to perform a command NOW, it is possible for them to not have the same keyboard layout or key bindings as you do. These commands are universal, and if you say "type /cmd_drones_return_to_bay" you can be very confident they will be recalling their drones instead of forgetting which keybind or UI box they have to find.

To use slash commands, type the command into any chat window preceded by a '/'. None of the commands take arguments, or display errors if typed incorrectily. All are case insensitive and you can substitute spaces for the underscores. '/open_mail' and '/Open MAIL' are equivalent.
