How to set console key

As of ISBoxer 38, ISBoxer will now REMOVE THE INNER SPACE CONSOLE HOTKEY BY DEFAULT.
To set the console Hotkey via ISBoxer:
1. In the top pane, select your Character Set
2. In the bottom right pane, check the "In-game Inner Space console hotkey" box, click the < and pick a hotkey. It can be whatever you want.
Now that I concisely answered the question, I'll explain for whoever might be curious
ISBoxer has always removed several other default hotkeys, but I left this one there to keep all of you happy. Sadly, keeping all of you happy has a detrimental effect on the rest of the people who use Inner Space. "Gee, why does this dumb window pop up when I accidentally hit `? I didn't configure that. I don't even want that. It's dumb and it gets in my way and kills me in intense combat because it confuses the hell out of me and it took me a minute to figure out how to get it off the screen." So I corrected the problem and subsequently pissed off the subset of ISBoxer users that also visit isxgames.com (or the subset of isxgames.com users that also use ISBoxer, however you want to see it). ISBoxer 38's behavior regarding the console is now as it should have been from the first release of ISBoxer.
Now, I know some of you can't fathom that outside of isxgames.com anything at all would be happening with Inner Space. "Gee, the ISBoxer.com forums aren't even used, and the ISBoxer chat room is empty" you might say. "This change is dumb. What kind of dummy would change this after so long. Now I have to answer questions about the dumb console because dumb Lax changed this dumb behavior THAT HAS BEEN DEFAULT FOR YEARS for the dumb ISBoxer users." YOU'RE RIGHT IT'S ALL FUCKING DUMB. SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FIND A LINK TO GIVE PEOPLE TO ANSWER THEIR QUESTION. IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL.
With all that said, I apologize to the people affected by this change. Complaints about changes are exactly why a lot of things are still the way they are. This change is pretty minor. Add a note somewhere for isxgames.com + ISBoxer users and forget about it.
