ChatSpace Lite Java Client
The ChatSpace Java Client is designed to only show one room and only supports a few basic commands.

There are several areas of the ChatSpace Lite Java Client that you can interact with:

Chat Area
The main area shows the messages you have sent and received. The current topic for this room, if any, is shown in the title bar. If a message appears in blue, then clicking it will take you to the Web Address or email address mentioned on that line.

User List
The right list displays people currently in this chat room. Your nick is displayed as bold. You may double-click a name in the list to get more information about that user, as well as start a Person-to-Person Chat with him/her.

There are two special colors that identify names:
blue indicates an Room Moderator that can issue commands to control the room. green indicates a user with "voice", only users with voice can speak in a strictly-moderated room.

Input Area
At the bottom is the input line. You can send a message by typing it on this line. You can also change how the message is interpreted by using the Message Routing Control at the right-hand side of the Input Area. A message can be interpreted as:

 - A message intended for everyone in the room to hear
 - An action you wish to appear to take (as opposed to a statement).
   For example:  *Guest1 rolls his eyes

You can also issue a few basic commands through the Input area:
/nick newname    Change your nickname

/quit    Leave the chat and disconnect from the server
