- Generic Extended Commands
- -------------------------
-
- You should be familiar with the basic single-key commands. Most of the commands
- can also take additional parameters. There are two basic rules to remember:
-
- (1) Begin multi-word commands with a period and end with CR.
-
- Examples:
-
- To read all the messages in a room:
- .<R>ead <F>orward
-
- To list the messages in reverse order:
- .<R>ead <R>everse
-
- To go directly to the room ANYROOM>:
- .<G>oto ANYROOM
-
-
- (2) Typing a "?" anywhere will print the list of options available.
-
- Examples:
-
- To list the main menu:
- ?
-
- To list all the enter options:
- .<E>nter ?
-
- To list all known rooms in the system:
- .<G>oto ?
-
- To list all help files:
- .<H>elp ?
-
- etc....
-
- (P.S., you can substitute a SPACE, a comma, or a slash for the period
- on the general rule that you may occasionally miss the period when you throw
- your hand at the right side of the keyboard.)
