Chat is still fairly limited, but it's got an ever-growing functionality. Here's the basic stuff you can do:
Change channels. Type /c and then the channel you want. Chat recognizes both the name and the number for chat channels. Available channels are: /newbie or /1 /normal or /2 /abnormal or /3 /trade or /4 /games or /5
Emote. Type /em or /me and the rest of the message. It shows up in italics and always prints your name at the beginning.
Private messages. Type /pm [character number or character_name_with_underscores] [message]. The spaces between the command, the number, and the message are necessary. This will send a private message, which nobody else can see, to the character with that number or that name (names with spaces need to be typed with underscores instead of spaces; example: to send a PM to the character Big Shot you'd need to type /pm big_shot [message]). You will get a green confirmation message, and they will get the message in blue. The /w and /msg commands work as duplicate options for /pm. If a PM is sent to a player who is not in chat or online, or to a number that doesn't represent a real player, the message will be lost.
Coming slightly less soon: ignore/baleet and /who commands.
