I just got to the part where I can use my hands, and the first thing I did was open a chest. I couldn't work out how to close it, so started pressing buttons to see what worked. I've now opened the dev console, and can't get rid of it.

If anyone's coming here for help closing a chest menu: use Tab. (This is a really unintuitive UX design choice.) – SevenSidedDie Nov 12 '11 at 18:43

There are two ways to close the console:

  • Use the tilde key (` / ~ on Qwerty, ² / ³ on Azerty) to toggle the console.

  • Type the command CloseMenu Console to close the console if the key doesn't work.

They really should have added exit or quit as well.. even help would have been nice. First time I didn't know (I hit) the console key and couldn't get out :/ – Konerak Dec 6 '11 at 10:27
Two of the three commands you mention should be there... – Tom Wijsman Dec 6 '11 at 11:48
I had to type HideMenu Console to close the console. I don't know if things have changed since '11, or one of my mods is interfering though. – ento Apr 23 at 13:59

Hit the ` again and the console should close. Depending on what language setting your keyboard has, it might also be ^ or ~ .
