- The console – which has two modes – is activated/toggled using the tilde key (link), which normally is placed to the left of the 1 key and above the Tab key. However, some keyboard-layouts may have it placed elsewhere.
- The first mode of the console is reading mode. Note that the PageUp and PageDown keys will scroll up/down in the console lines.
