/console

Syntax

/console
/cwconsole

Description

Toggle the clockwork overlay window. /console and /cwconsole are the same command, and both do exactly what the End key does.

The console

The overlay's console tab is a command line with history plus the output sink that everything eq2.print() writes lands in.

A line you type there is routed in this order:

  1. clear and history are handled by the console itself.
  2. clockwork's own registered commands (core commands and any registered by a running Lua script).
  3. The game's own RunInputLine — so native EverQuest II commands and plain chat work from the console too.

A bare non-/ line is not evaluated as Lua. There is deliberately no REPL.

Use Up and Down to walk history. Repeating an entry moves it to the end of the history rather than duplicating it.

Examples

/console
/cwconsole

Typed inside the console itself:

clear
history
/lua run hello
/say hello world
