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:
.Read Forward
To list the messages in reverse order:
.Read Reverse
To go directly to the room ANYROOM>:
.Goto ANYROOM
(2) Typing a "?" anywhere will print the list of options available.
Examples:
To list the main menu:
?
To list all the enter options:
.Enter ?
To list all known rooms in the system:
.Goto ?
To list all help files:
.Help ?
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.)
