About MacFIBS chat features

    MacFIBS contains three types of windows for chatting with other players:

    1. the Shout window is used for shouting and sending messages to all players who are currently logged in
    2. the main Chat window is used to chat with other players while playing or watching a match
    3. private Chat windows are used to talk privately with another player. You may have multiple private chat windows open at once. You may also set a preference to have all private chat appear in the match chat window.

Selecting the Chat Mode (Main Chat Window)

    Use the pop-up menu to select Kibitz, Say, Whisper, Message, or blank in the main Chat window.

    Note: The "blank" option can be used to issue any FIBS command without having to go to the Terminal window (although any returned messages from the command will appear in the Terminal window, not the chat window).

    You can use Cmd-UpArrow and Cmd-DownArrow as keyboard shortcuts to scroll the menu.

MacFIBS "Type-O-Magic" Feature

    When the board window is frontmost, you can type messages and the keystrokes will be forwarded to the main chat window (including Cmd-UpArrow and Cmd-DownArrow).
