Once upon a time I believe I used to just simply open a chart and enter {F}+{GM} and get a chart adding the price of Ford and General Motors. I could be entirely wrong, but I'm curious if there's a way to add the price of multiple equities in 1 chart?

You could type in the symbol and get the chart to change to that symbol, but not to add it to the existing chart. Refer to the following for this capability:
Changing the Symbol of a Chart: Quickly Changing the Symbol of a Chart to a Symbol for which a Data File Exists

If you want to see different symbols in the same chart, but in different regions, then you would want to use the Add Additional Symbol study. Refer to the following:
Add Additional Symbol

If you want to see the symbols in the same chart and in the same region, then you would want to use the Study/Price Overlay study and set the Scale for this study to Independent. Note that if you are using OHLC bars or Candlesticks, it can get hard to differentiate the bars, so you might want to use the Line on Close draw type. Refer to the following for the study/Price Overlay:
