             The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition

     
*********************************************************************


Better Console expands the console to full screen, increases the size
of the viewable history, adds new key options, allows you to set
your own aliases for commands you frequently use, doesn't add repeats 
of the same command to the command history, adds commands to clear
the console and to search the viewable history.


*********************************************************************


THE NEW COMMANDS

clear - clears the visible console history
?TERM - search up through the history for TERM
/TERM - starting at the top, search down through the history for TERM
? - repeat the last search up
/ - repeate the last search down


THE NEW KEYS

PgUp - scrolls up one screenful (just like the original)
PgDn - scrolls down one screenful (just like the original)
Shift + PgUp - scrolls up 5 screenfuls
Shift + PgDn - scrolls down 5 screenfuls
Home - scrolls to the top of the history list
End - scrolls to the bottom of the history list
Shift + Home - scroll up to the next line matching the current search
Shift + End - scroll down to the next line matching the current search


*********************************************************************


ALIASES CONFIGURATION OPTIONS

You can type the word "help" by itself to see the list of aliases.
If you want the old behavior of help you can add a space before or
after the word help or add any of the other options help expects.

To set your own options simply rename the console_example.cfg file 
included here to console.cfg and edit it with any text editor. (It's 
named console_example.cfg and you need to rename it to console.cfg
so that your mod manager won't overwrite any changes you might make.)

Aliases can be set in the console.cfg file and the one provided
comes with two examples. When you type a command into the console
the first word of that command will be compared to the list of
aliases. If there's a match that word will be replaced by the
result of that alias. For example the example file has the alias 
"firewood=player.additem 6f993" so if you enter the console command 
"firewood 8" you will add 8 pieces of firewood to your inventory.

KNOWN AND POTENTIAL MOD CONFLICTS

This will not be compatible with other mods altering the console.swf
file including MFG Console if it becomes available for Skyrim SE.
