By "default commands" I mean:
The commands that are already preprogrammed in ChatGPT (as opposed to "custom commands" that you can create yourself).
Alt Space = COMPANION window, open/close - (installed versions of ChatGPT)
Esc = CLOSE current dialog box - (ALL versions of ChatGPT)
@ (in prompt field) = MENTION menu, show - (ALL versions of ChatGPT)
/ (in prompt field) = SLASH menu/Slash commands, show - (ALL versions of ChatGPT)
Ctrl N = NEW CHAT - (installed versions of ChatGPT)
Ctrl O = ROOT FOLDER, open project root folder - (new installed ChatGPT)
Ctrl / = COMMANDS, show - (ALL versions of ChatGPT)
Ctrl . = DEV MODE, enable/disable - (ALL versions of ChatGPT)
