Usage: kibitz [game number] message
Sends a 'kibitz' message to the people observing game [#]. Kibitzes
will be seen only by the people with their 'kibitz' option enabled (see
'help toggle'). The game number may be omitted if you are observing
only one game, or if you are playing. The 'kibitz' is limited to 184
characters. The _players_ do not see the kibitzes.
Example: #> kibitz White is alive.
A command related to 'kibitz' is 'chatter', see: help chatter
Messages entered with 'kibitz' ARE recorded in the game record, but
messages entered with 'chatter' ARE NOT recorded in the game record.
'kitibz' can be shortened to: "
When one uses the abbreviation, one needs the space after
the double quote. (") For example:
#> " White is alive.
^----------------NOTE: a space after "
During the game, the kibitz will look like:
Kibitz observer [rk]: Game white vs black [#]
White is alive.
To disable incoming 'kibitz' messages, see: help toggle
