== Commands ==

A Command is a whitespace-less string that can be associated with a function. The Command may or may not have a help message, and it may have a [[#~~Category~~|Category]] that controls its placement when displayed by the [[help (Console command)|help command]].

A Command is a whitespace-less string that can be associated with a function. The Command may or may not have a help message, and it may have a [[#Categories|Category number]] that controls its placement when displayed by the [[help (Console command)|help command]].

A Command is a function associated with a string that contains no whitespace. The function accepts the name of the command as a string, as well as an optional argument string. For example, running the following command:

Line 21:

</pre>

=== ~~Category~~ ===

=== Categories ===

Every [[#Commands|Command]] or [[WoW:CVar|CVar]] belongs to a category number.

== WTF Files ==

Configurations are persisted across game sessions using .WTF (Warcraft Text File?) files.

Each WTF file is a text file, containing only [[#Commands|Commands]] separated by a <code>\r\n</code>, or CRLF sequence.

Differently named WTF files may interpret specific commands only (such as Config.WTF, which rejects every line that does not begin with the [[set (Console command)|set command]])

The Config.WTF file is loaded by the engine at startup

== Usage ==

To use the console, the client must be specially launched using the <code>-console</code> command-line argument.
