Command bar

Jan 2026

The Command Bar is a chat-integrated tool originally designed for Privachat. It provides an interactive interface for executing commands quickly and efficiently. Each command can be autofilled per user, allowing fast input without typing the full command manually. Commands can be executed via keyboard or mouse clicks.

How It Works

When you click on the chat text area and press ! on your keyboard, a command menu appears. You can scroll through available commands or type the command manually. Autofill suggestions appear dynamically for each user in the chat.

  • ! to open the command menu
  • Tab to autofill the first suggestion
  • Enter or click a command to execute it

Available Commands

The Command Bar supports a variety of commands to interact with the chat and users. Each command is context-sensitive and can provide suggestions based on the current chat state.

  • !dummy chats - Load in 10 random dummy chats
  • !leave - Remove the current member from the chat
  • !delete - Delete this chat
  • !clear - Clear all chat messages
  • !members - View all members within the chat
  • !rename <username> - Change the name of the specified member within the chat
  • !kick <username> - Kick the specified member from the chat

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use the Tab key to quickly autofill frequent commands.
  • Remember that commands are case-insensitive and can be combined with parameters.
  • You can click on a suggestion in the menu to execute it with your mouse if preferred.
