Key Combinations:
Shift+Tab
This cycles between all MDI subwindows by order of creation.
Editbox Cursor Up/Down
This browses the history of a windows editbox. (previously sent commands/lines)
Editbox Ctrl+Enter
If you want to send information beginning with the / command prefix and you want it to be sent as normal text instead of interpreted as a command, just hold down the Control key when you press enter.
Editbox Ctrl+BURKIEDQO
Inserts control codes for Bold, Underline, Reverse, Color, Italic, Strikethru, HexColor, Monospace and the stop all controls character.
Editbox Tab Key
If you are in a channel window editbox and it contains some text, the Tab key performs nickname completion on the word the cursor is on, this allows you type in only the first character or two of a nickname on that channel and then press Tab and Web-IRC will expand it to the full nickname. You can cycle thru all matches with multiple presses of Tab. This replacement ends when ANY key other than tab is pressed.
Basic IRC Commands:

Joins the specified channel(s).

Leaves the specified channel(s) that you are on and optionally attaches a part message.

/amsg <message>
This command sends the specified message to all open channel windows.

Clears the buffer of the current window. If you specify a window name, that window's buffer will be cleared.
The -s switch clears the status window.
The -h switch clears the editbox command history for a window.

Enables or disables all event beeps. Events such as new lines in a window when the scrollbar is NOT at the bottom.
/help

/raw or /quote <command>

Note: Servers are in form of: ws(s)://server:port/optionalPaths/
The -i switch sets the nickname to be used when connecting to server.
