Shoutbox

There once was a list of keyboard shortcuts used by the Messenger Plus! 3.xx versions on the old website, but there hasn't been any such list in the help section of the new Messenger Plus! Live website (or I seriously need to get some glasses ).

- for a list of keyboard shortcuts for Messenger Plus! 3.xx, see msgplus.net (Wayback Machine)

I compiled a list of keyboard shortcuts from the changelogs and the old website, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's still missing some shortcuts:

As for keyboard shortcuts for Windows Live Messenger, I haven't seen any up-to-date list yet. Sunshine once linked to a list of keyboard shortcuts for MSN Messenger, some of them might still work:

You can't (un)group chat windows to a tabbed window in Messenger Plus! Live anymore, now all you can do is either use tabbed chats or don't use them at all.
