__Example N__

If an editor wanted to continue writing examples, they could write as many as they wanted, following the general format above:

 . {{{ <COMMAND> <EXAMPLE_ARGUMENTS_N> }}}

And keep writing user example output:

 . {{{ <EXEC_USER_OUTPUT_DESC> }}}

And More Output:

 . {{{ <OTHER_USER_OUTPUT_DESC> }}}

Examples

Example 1

If Alkani wanted to whisper a compliment to Morticon, he would type the following:

  •  whisper Morticon=I must compliment you on the Seyae. They are very well trained.  

Alkani would see the following:

  •  You whisper, "I must compliment you on the Seyae. They are very well trained." 

Morticon would see the following:

  •  Alkani whispers, "I must compliment you on the Seyae. They are very well trained." 

Caveats

Players who have the Wizard (W) flag set on themselves may use the whisper command to send messages to anyone on the SpinDizzy MUCK System regardless of their location. The format for Wizards sending messages is the same, except they must pass a dereferenced player name:  whisper *<player>=<message>
