| There are a number of standard abbrieviations used in the MUD.  They are   |
| as follows:  "i" for inventory; "exam" for examine; "l" for look; and      |
| " ' " (a single quote) for say.                                            |
|                                                                            |
| Many objects have aliases as well as names.  For example, the short        |
| description says, "a short sword"; the name is, "orc slayer"; the alias    |
| is, "sword"; and the alternate name is "short sword".  You can reference   |
| the sword by typing "orc slayer", "sword", or "short sword".               |
|                                                                            |
| When referencing to items, a number can be used to pick one item of        |
| a number of similar items.                                                 |
|                                                                            |
| For example:  "sell knife 3",                                              |
|               "examine corpse 2",                                          |
|               "get axe from corpse 2",                                     |
|               etc.                                                         |
