The [[console]] allows you to enter commands to the Source engine while testing a map or mod. In order to use it, click the Advanced button of the Keyboard tab in the game options and check the option for turning on the console. Then click Apply. Henceforth, the console can be opened or closed with the top left key below Escape, typically labelled '''~''' on a US keyboard.
 
Enter commands by typing in the box at the bottom. Typing <code>[[help]]</code> will provide some instructions.
 
Type <code>[[find]] &lt;substring&gt;</code> to look for [[console command]]s related to a specific topic (i.e. typing <code>find npc</code> would show a listing of [[NPC Debugging Command]]s such as [[npc_go]] and [[npc_create]].
 
See [[Developer Console]] for detailed instructions in using the console.
