commands


Usage: help

On the IGS game server there is online documentation and help files for all the commands. These files can be viewed by entering help, plus the name of the document or file.

Examples:
help motd,  help tell,  help match,  help score

help can be substituted with ?.

Examples:
? motd,  ? tell,  ? match,  ? score

When using a command, most can be abbreviated.

Examples:  (kibitz, who, toggle)
kib,  wh,  tog

Some abbreviations cannot be used if there is a conflict. The abbreviation cha cannot be used since there are 2 commands that begin with the same 3 letters, channel and chatter. In this case, use chan for channel, and chat for chatter.

When reviewing the online IGS game server documentation and help files, please remember these are only a short modified version meant as a quick reminder. These versions are meant to be viewed in the standard size terminal window, which is 24 rows down, and 80 characters across.
