Build a console similar to minecraft
So this will come off as a little weird, but bare with me. There are probably many other games like this but Minecraft is the one that pops into my head.
So in minecraft, when you press "/", a command line comes up. You can then type in commands.
But if you do "/kill Username", it will make no difference from "/kill Username"
I basically want to write a console with commands and it won't matter how many spaces someone puts or anything like that.
That's known as a Parser. They can be a bit tricky to write, but you can probably look elsewhere to get a crude one (just command and direct object.) A really crude one can be made with simple string functions.
Also, I wouldn't say anything normally, but it stopped me on that sentence -- it's BEAR with me. It's the same root word as "get your bearings."
Lol thanks. What should I search though to find exactly what i mean
Depending on how complex you want your command system, you could create a lexical analysis class https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexical_analysis. Alternatively, if you don't want many commands, just check for the word and execute the task individually.

Maybe you can search about Regular Expression. It can help you to recognizes the command that user inputed, and seperated the input values
