The regular [H]elp file details the basic single-key commands. Most
commands can also take additional parameters.
There are two basic rules to remember:
(1) Begin multi-word commands with a PERIOD and end with [Return].
Examples:
To read all the messages in a room:
.RA .R(ead) A(ll)
To list the messages in reverse order, one at a time:
.RR .R(ead) M(ore) R(everse)
To go directly to the room ANYROOM>:
.G 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? .E(nter) [?]
To list all known rooms in the system:
.G? .G(oto) [?]
To list all help files:
.H? .H(elp) [?]
etc....
