You type in the lower Message Entry Panel. You see incoming and outgoing messages in the upper Dialogue History Panel. Messages are displayed word-by-word as you and the other peers type. A word is displayed when you press the spacebar.
To send messages only when you press the Enter key instead of word-by-word, set the Send Message option in Preferences. After you have set the option, your messages are not sent until you press the Enter key.
To change the appearance of the content, see Style Preferences, in Preferences. Note that by using certain characters in your text, you can change the format as you type.
To set up a group of abbreviations that are automatically expanded for easy typing, automatic error correction, or even pre-written messages, see Abbreviation Expansion.
