This control defines the main chat entry control. The recommended location for it is in a desktop panel. Only one instance of the control can exist, attempts to create more than one will fail.
Slash commands, i.e. chat entries that start with the "/" character and a single command word immediately following, can be registered for special handling. Slash command handlers will receive one parameter, a string containing the remainder of the chat line following the command that can be used to issue parameters. Built in slash commands will precede any handlers defined.
See Comm package for details on the chat message structure.
