.          SET UP A PRIVATE TALK SESSION TO ANOTHER PLAYER  . #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cross-connect Ver 1.2 by Riss
Cross-connect allows for free form communication between any 2 players on
Furry. That is this program may be set to allow totally unformatted text
to flow between 2 agreeing players.
Usage:  (Commands may be abbreviated to first 3 characters after the #)
. #connect <player's full name>
     Sends a request to connect to that player. It includes your name.
     Player should respond with a . #connect <yourname> to connect.
. text...      - Sends the text to the other player.
. #disconnect  - Brakes the connection.
. #echo        - Sets Cross-connect to echo your message back to you.
. #!echo       - Turns echo off. (default)
. #header <your header text> - Changes default line header '}' to your
                    own text. This displays in front player messages.
                    Set header to 'none' to for no header at all.
. #!header     - Restores the default header '}'.
. #name        - Display the sender's name before message.
. #!name       - Turn off name display. (default)
. #free        - Disables both header and name display. Free text.
. #!free       - Enables name and header. (default)
. #status      - Displays the status of your connection.
For more information, enter . #morehelp
Cross-connect will allow for totally free form communication between
 two players. This connection is muck-wide, that is both players need
 not be in the same room for the connection to work.
You may choose to display the lines with or without a character header
 and/or the player's names. When #free is set, you will see exactly what
 the other player types, no substitutions of any kind take place.
You may choose to have your lines echo to you or not, depending on your
 echo setting. Your #echo, #free, and #name setting will be remembered
 between connections.
You should make sure you #disconnect when you are finished, or you could
 leave your self open to spoofing by the previous player should you fail
 to see their connect message.
This program has been beta-tested on Furry, and it takes a bit of getting
 used to when you don't see the familiar name display. Start thinking in
 terms of 'I' do this, or 'I' say that. Think of talking directly to someone.
 
If there is interest, I could work on a version that will allow for
 free communication between more than two players. Let me know what
 you think. Questions and comments to Riss.


3WHO       AS "WHO", BUT FORMATTED IN 3 COLUMNS             LOOK 3WHO
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3who displays the who list in a 3 column format.


@ARCHIVE   TO MAKE ARCHIVES OF CONSTRUCTED AREAS            @ARCHIVE =HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax: @archive <object>[=1acefil]
 @archive <object>=1    Archive only that object.
 @archive <object>=a    Archive all, regardless of owner.  (wizards only).
 @archive <object>=c    Don't archive contents.
 @archive <object>=e    Archive objects not in this room's environment.

Usage:  @backlink <exitname> [ = { here                      } ]
                                 { me                        }
                                 { <name>                    }
  
Follows standard permissions for opening and linking exits.
Opens an exit from a room to a place or person. In the case
of opening an exit to another room, it has the option to open an
exit back to the location you are opening the first exit from.

Usage: @bootme.  Boots off all but your newest connection to the MUCK.


@BREAKLINK REMOVE UNWANTED LINKS TO YOUR CHARACTER/PROPERTY @BREAKLINK #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage: @breaklink <object|exit|player>
 
   @breaklink is used to break the link of an object, player, or 
   exit which is linked to you (or, in the case of a player, a room
   which is owned by you), but is not owned by you.  If the target
   object is of type thing, it is relinked to its owner's home.  If
   it is an exit, it is simply unlinked.  If it is a player, it is
   relinked to a default location and sent there.


@IMAGE     SHOWS WHERE TO FIND A .GIF OF CHARACTER ON 'NET. @IMAGE #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@Image ver. 1.1                        Copyright 7/10/1994 by Revar
-------------------------------------------------------------------
@image <object>            To see where to find a gif of the object
@image <obj>=<URL>         To specify where one can find a gif of  
                             that object.  The URL is the WWW URL  
                             format for specifying where on the net
                             a file is.                            
@image <obj>=clear         To clear the image reference.           
-------------------------------------------------------------------
URL's have the following format:   type://machine.name/path/file   
For 95% of you on Furry, your gifs will be on avatar, available for
anonymous ftp.  The type for that would be 'file', and the machine 
name, obviously, would be avatar.snc.edu.  So, if I wanted to show 
that people can find an image of Revar on avatar, I'd just do:     
@image Revar=file://avatar.snc.edu/pub/furry/images/downloads/r/Revar-1-gw.gif
  
Those of you who have used Mosaic or lynx to access WWW might find 
this URL format familiar.  It's because it's the same exact format.
Please keep your info in this format, since it makes it easier, if,
sometime in the future, someone were to write a graphical front end
for furryMUCK, then they could automatically get a picture of what 
they looked at.  Anyone want to write said client program?

Public may:  @announce <message> to be heard by folks who are #pubon 
             Public announcements are limited to 1 every 10 minutes per player. 
             @shout <channel>=<message> to be heard by only folks

             @shout <message>  to shout to last channel you shouted to. 
             If you have no last channel, it will tell you so.

Any <message> may be posed with  :<message>  or  :'s <message>

BANISH     TO KEEP OUT PESKY PLAYERS                        BANISH #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Banish 1.4 by Riss
-------------------------------------------------------------------
This routine will allow an owner of a room or area to banish one or
more characters from the area. If a character attempts to enter an
area they are banished from they will be swept home.
Used in Haven mode, only characters on the list will be allowd in.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Banish [#dbref_of_room] chracter_name    -Banishes character
Unbanish [#dbref_of_room] chracter_name  -Unbanishes the character
Banlist [#dbref_of_room]                 -Shows who is banished
Banish #help                             -This text.
AdultBanish [#dbref_of_room] [age]       -Banishes players under [age]
UnAdultBanish [#dbref_of_room]           -Removes underage banish
Haven [#dbref_of_room] chracter_name     -Only character allowd in
Unhaven [#dbref_of_room] chracter_name   -Don't allow in anymore
Havenlist [#dbref_of_room]               -Shows who is havened
Ward         -Wards the room you are in to banish newcomers.
UnWard       -Removes the warding from the room.
Banish [#dbref_of_room] RESETALL  -clears list and resets Banish.
 
The #dbref_of_room is optional, and if not provided will use the
list of your present location. If the list for an environment room
is set, then character will be banned from all daughter rooms.
If a character is in a room when they are banished from it, they are
swept home. You may only ward or banish characters from rooms you own.
Example: Banish #12345 keylime   - keylime banished from room #12345
         Banish keylime          - keylime banished from current room
         Unbanish #12345 Guest   - Sure let the guest come and play.
         Banlist #12345          - Show me whos on my list there.
  ----- Ver 1.2   - Custom banish messages ------
 Set anywhere in the ENVIRONMENT, the following:
_Banish/banmsg with the banish message to the banished person.
_Banish/obanmsg with the O style message to the others in the room.
_Banish/banage with the message to the banished non-adult person.
_Banish/obanage with the O style message to others in the room.
O style message MUST have %n in them to indicate the NAME of the
 banished person. Pronoun substitutions are done on all messages.
 see: man pronoun_sub     for the list of substutions.
 -------- Ver 1.3 - Warding -------------- 
Warding is useful to allow some folks to enter a room, then set
 the wards so no one else can walk or teleport in and stay.
 Bug fix to banish zombies of banished players.
 -------- Ver 1.4 - Haven modes ---------- 
Using Haven will set a room or environment in to Haven mode.
A chracter must be ON the list to be able to stay in a room
 or environment, otherwize they are swept home. Remove all
 names from the haven list to revert to normal banish mode.


CHANGE     MAKE SMALL CHANGES TO MESSAGES/PROPERTIES        CHANGE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name: Change v1.04   Written by Tygryss/Revar   Last updated 6/15/94
Desc: Lets you replace some text in a message or property with
       new text.  Useful for fixing typos in a long message.
 
Syntax: change <object>=<propname>:/<old>/<new>   or
        change <object>=<mesgtype>;/<old>/<new>
 
<mesgtype> can be name/desc/succ/osucc/fail/ofail/drop/odrop

  in this case a '/'.


DOING      SET "DOING" PROP / SEE WHAT OTHERS ARE DOING     DO #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Doing   Ver 1.1 by Riss
-----------------------
 
This program will allow you to set your 'Im doing this now...' property and
 display these properties for those players in the same room as you.
 
Usage:
do <text...text....text....text...> will set your TEMP Doing to the text.
do     will display the names and doing property of those around you.
do :   will clear your TEMP Doing.
do s: <text...text....text...> will set your STICKY Doing.
do s:  will clear your STICKY Doing.
 
A TEMP Doing will automatically clear itself when you move out of a room,
 and will overide the STICKY Doing while it is available.
A STICKY Doing will display in DO or WhoSpe if there is no TEMP Doing.
If a player is asleep, the property will display [asleep]
 
If DO interfears with a DOWN command, use DOING as the command.
Thanks to Jet for suggesting the TEMP Doing idea.
Comments and questions to Riss. Enjoy!


EAT        EAT OR DRINK "FOOD" OR BEVERAGES                 EAT #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eat.muf, programmed by Jordan Greywolf and BoingDragon.
based on work by Lynx and WhiteUnicorn
----------------
With this command, you may 'eat' or 'drink' virtual food, with
accompanying 'special effects'.  In its simplest form, you can
create a food object by taking an object and setting it _food?:yes
To specify it as a drink rather than solid food (i.e. to change
the default messages, then set it food/drink?:yes.
.
For more details, type '@view #47459' to see the program docs.

 based on spc-truffle-eat 1.0 by Lynx and eat-apple by WhiteUnicorn
 Last updated:  6 Dec 93
  This program allows you to attach an "eat" action to an object, so that it, 
  when consumed, is sent to its home.  Optional prop settings on object:
  food/flavor: {text substituted in "savoring..." while eating.  Default is
    "its flavor".}
  food/bites/left: {how many bites can be taken before item is finished}
  food/finish: {tacked on when last bite is taken.  Optional.}       
  food/eat{#}: {message to be randomly displayed when "eating" food
    where "#" is a number from 0 to 8.  If messages are not set, default
    "eating" messages are substituted.  This is only a portion of the
    message displayed {sample default: "nibbles contentedly on "} }
  food/newdesc{#}: {new description format for object when {#} bites are
    left.  "#" can be from 1-4, 4 being called when there are 4 or more
    bites left.  If messages are not set, defaults will be used.}
  food/nochange?: yes {description will not be changed by this program}
  food/reset/desc: {optional -- once object is eaten, description is reset.}
  food/reset/bite: {optional -- bites are reset to this -- default is 1.}
  food/drink?: yes {if set, "drink" default messages are used.}
  food/home: {db # for optional location for object to be sent to when eaten}
  food/endmsg: {text displayed, optional, after others.  Program calls are
    valid.}
New messages: 
  The following message formats will override the default eating verbs and
  food/flavor, and also the food/eat{n} messages. Food/finish and food/endmsg
  are displayed as normal.
  eat/format: {can be used instead of food/flavor and overrides the default
    eat and drink verbs the user sees.  %text substitutes the name of the
    food object, ex: You bite into %text, letting the chocolate flavor soak
    into your tongue} 
  eat/oformat: {can be used instead of food/eat{n} messages. %text substitutes
    the name of the food object, ex: digs into %text with a fork and knife}
This program is currently installed as a global action, so that it can be
accessed in the form of "eat {object}" or "drink {object}".  The object must be
set _food?:yes to be "edible".

--------------------------------------
 
When creating a new room, the following steps make sense:  First create
the room and name it.  Then write a description for it, and then set
any of the special properties you need on it.  Then enter the ACTION
EDITOR and create exits from the new room to your other rooms (or even
someone else's if they've set the room LINKABLE).  Be sure to go to
_those_ rooms and make exits in the reverse direction... from them _to_
your new room... because exits are unidirectional.
 
It is possible to create actions in the room that do not connect with
other rooms but are just to print a message.  Create a new action in
the room (example: FEEP) and lock it so that no one can use it
(example: *Triggur&!*Triggur).  Now set the fail messages and you
are done.  When someone types FEEP, the messages are displayed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EXITS LISTER V2.0 written 11-03-91 by: Bunny
             
This program is designed to show the exits on an object owned by
the player using the program. The Program will show the exit name,
database number, destination and its number. It will work on objects,
rooms, and yourself.
The valid parameters are "here" or "" for the room you are in
"me" for yourself, an object name, or partial name. For the name search
the object must be in your inventory or in the room. You can also
give a database number in the format #<integer> ex: #1234. This will
find the exits from that object regardless of where it is.
#help will list this help file.

  Custom handing messages can be set on the objects by using the
  hand_msg property.
 
  Example: @set <object>=hand_msg:<message>
           @set apple=hand_msg:tosses the %n to %t.
 
  String substitution in the message is:
           %n is the object's name
           %t is the name of the receiving player
           %f is the name of the sending player
 
  Note: hand_msg is *always* is preceeded by the sending player's name.

  hand_msg property.
 
  Example: @set me=_hand/hand_msg:<message>
           @set me=_hand/hand_msg:tosses the %n to %t.
 
  String substitution in the message is:
           %n is the object's name
           %t is the name of the receiving player
           %f is the name of the sending player

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Hand: Personal hand messages extended pronoun substitution          Page 4
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Custom handing messages can also use pronoun substitution.
 
  Instead of using % to indicate a pronoun, you can use [t]
  for the person handed to, [f] for the person handed from,
  and [n] for the object being handed. Otherwise, all the
  pronoun letters are all the same as it's % counterparts:
 
    a/A for absolute possessive (his/hers/its, His/Hers/Its)
    s/S for subjective pronouns (he/she/it, He/She/It)
    o/O for objective pronouns (him/her/it, Him/Her/It)
    p/P for possessive pronouns (his/her/its, His/Her/Its)
    r/R for reflexive pronouns (himself/herself/itself,
                                Himself/Herself/Itself)
    n/N for the player's name.
 
  Examples: [t]N  for the full name of the person handed to.
            [n]o  for the objective of the object handed.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax:  lookat <player>'s <object>
    or:  lookat <player> <object>
    Lets you look at an object that a player is carrying, and see its @desc.
  
You can set these properties on objects:
    _remote_desc:<desc>  Shown instead of the objects @desc.  If this (or
                          the @desc if this doesn't exist) uses a program
                          like @6800, it will handle it properly.
    _remote_look?:yes    Allows lookat'ing for that object.  On a player,
                          allows looking at anything they carry unless the
                          object is set _remote_look?:no

This program lets you edit lists that are used for the @6800 longdesc
program and a few others.  A list is a set of ordered properties that
contain strings.  ie:
     mylist1:This is
     mylist2:an example of
     mylist3:a simple list.
 
To edit one of these lists, use the syntax:   lsedit <object>=<listname> 
where <object> is the object that you want to edit the property list 
of, and <listname> is the base name of the list to edit.  In the above 
example, the listname was 'mylist'.

.        " :   :  "     " .       _map/x:14  ( 14th char in line )
  
Advantage (+) and Disadvantage (-) of this style vs the original style:
+ Some find it easier to design maps using the new style since they don't 
  have to reserve 3 spaces to indicate each room.  Maps can be more compact.
  Its also easier to add rooms.
  
- However, if you redraw your map, chances are you're going to have to reset
  _map/x and _map/y in each room indicated.
  
 
---< Page 4:  Installing a Map >---
  
Maps are best installed in an environment room for the region.  If your 
region has an environment room, go there.  If not, you can use any room.
When in your 'map room' type:
  
  lsedit here=_map 
  
Enter your map line by line... It's best to make the map ahead of time and 
use tinyfugue to load it (or a 'cut & paste' system).  Exit lsedit with .end
  
Once the map is set you need to indicate where the 'X' should go.
If you used an original style map, go to each room and type:
  
  @set here=_map/symbol:A  ( Use 'A' only in the room with '%A%' marker )
  ( This is case sensitive... %A% and %a% are different. )
  
If you use new style maps, go to each room and type:
  
  @set here=_map/x:<x-pos>    and    @set here=_map/y:<y-pos>
  
so 'X' will replace the <x-pos>'th character in the <y-pos>'th line.
  
 
---< Page 5:  Installing a Map (continued) >---
  
As mentioned before, the map list need not be in a parent room... Maps can 
be placed on any room (or any object).  The default map list is named '_map'
and is usually created with 'lsedit <object>=_map'.
  
If a map list isn't placed in a parent room you can tell the program where
to look for a map by setting the following in EACH room on the map...
  
  @set here=_map/room:12345
  
where '12345' is the dbref number of the room (or object) with the _map list.
[ I personally use the room I marked with %A% as a 'map' ]
[ room for areas without parent rooms  --  Foxx_Fox      ]
 
---< Page 6:  Additional Map features >---
  
If you don't want a map to be shown in a room... you can hide it with...
 
  @set here=_map/disable:yes
  
This can also be put in a parent room to disable maps in an entire region.
To re-enable a map in a specific room you could use
  
  @set here=_map/disable:no
  
You can replace the symbol 'X' with anything you want.  To change it to '@'.
  
  @set here=_map/marker:@
  
For original style maps, the marker should only be one character long.
For new style maps, the marker can be any length.
  
Note:  Keep maps under 100 lines long.  The map program will only print 100.
  
 
---< Page 7:  Maps in Vehicles >---
  
Some 'Vehicle' programs have the inside of a vehicle as a 'floating' room 
while the vehicle itself is an object which moves around the MUCK.
For these types of vehicles you can go inside and type
  
  @set here=_map/ref:23456    (where the vehicle object is #23456)
  
This tells CMD-map to look at object #23456's position instead of the user's
position when displaying a map.  This only works if the vechicle interior is
owned by the same person as the vehicle object... also the vehicle object
MUST be of type 'thing'.
 
---< Page 8:  Multiple Maps per Room >---
  
You can have more than one map set up for a region.
Typing 'map' will give you the default map
Typing 'map <name>' will look for a 'named' map.
  
If you want to install a named map called 'alpha' (view with):   map alpha
Install the map with:    lsedit here=_map/alpha
  
The 'alpha' map will read '_map/alpha/<prop>' for all its properties.
  set its symbol with _map/alpha/symbol  
  set its co-ords with _map/alpha/x  and _map/alpha/y
  enable-disable it with _map/alpha/disable  ... etc
  
  Only  _map/room  and  _map/ref  remains the same for 'named' maps.
  There is no such thing as _map/alpha/room or _map/alpha/ref.

MORPH      (POLY)MORPH INTO DIFFERENT FORMS                 MORPH #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Morph Hammer V1.42 (C) 1994-1998 by Triggur
------------------------------------------
 
This program lets you easily change your description and other attributes.
 
MORPH #ADD         - Add current description as a new morph
MORPH #HELP        - this text
MORPH #LIST        - list all the morphs you have and their commands
MORPH #REMOVE      - Delete one of your morphs
MORPH <command>    - change to a morph (see morph #list for commands)
QMORPH <command>   - change to a morph quietly
 
MORPH #CONNECT     - Set a morph to go to when awake
MORPH #DISCONNECT  - Set a morph to go to when asleep
 
MORPH #ALLOW <player> - allow the named player to edit your morphs
MORPH #ASSIST <player> [#ADD|#LIST|#REMOVE|<command>]
                      - edit another player's morphs.
MORPH #CLEAR          - stop allowing your morphs being edited

 
  To use this program, edit your current attributes (by hand or
with EDITPLAYER) to get exactly the form you want.  Type MORPH #ADD
and your current description, sex, species, scent, say and osay
will be copied as a new morph.  You will be expected to answer
a few questions.  First, the 'command'  associated with this
morph.  This should be one word like '2leg' or 'mwolf' or somesuch.
Next the name of the morph.  Only you will see this in MORPH #LIST.
Finally, the text it should print when you change to that new morph.
 
  To add another morph, simply edit your current description again
and MORPH #ADD again.  Lather, rinse, repeat. :)
 
WARNING:  If your description is currently using @$desc (@6800 on Furry),
the whole description will be _converted_ to a single MPI list.
 
NOTE:  Be aware that when you change to a morph, your description
will be overwritten.  If you have multiple descriptions you want
to make morphs for, be sure to MORPH #ADD them all *before*
trying to test one of the new morphs.  PLEASE DELETE YOUR OLD
MORPHS!
 
Also, please keep the number of morphs you have to under 10.  Thank you!



MUMBLE     GARBLED "WHISPER" FOR ROLEPLAYING                LOOK MUMBLE
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A mumbled whisper to one or more people in a room. Those you whipser to see
the clear message, everyone else sees bits. mum <player player ...>=<text>   
Mumble remembers who you last mumbled to, so   mum =<text> mumbles to the 
last player or group.


NAVIGATE   SHOWS PATH TO DESTINATION IN CERTAIN AREAS       NAV #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Navigation System Help Screen
-----------------------------
Type 'navigate {searchstring}'.
...where {searchstring} is the name of the desired room, or a fragment
of its name.  If the path can be found through standard exits, and
within 6 steps, the shortest path found will be displayed.
For technical information on setting up Nav.muf for your area,
or disabling it, type '@view #76780' to see program documents.

( header, 33 lines -- Nav.muf, programmed by Jordan Greywolf
Version 3.1, last updated 5/5/93
---------------------------------
This program performs a breadth-first search of the area surrounding the player
{or vehicle} to find a path to the desired target room.  This program will not
check *all* exits along the way, but only exits that have names specified as
set on props on the environment.  Suggested action names to check for:

out, nn, ss, ee, ww, n, s, e, w, ne, se, sw, nw, u, d

A maximum depth of 6 levels will be searched.  In the environment in which the
search is taking place, you may specify the action names to search for, from 1
to n, with the prop settings of _nav/{n}:{text of action name}.  Mark the end
of the list by having _nav/{n+1}:@   ... This way, the program knows to stop
looking for further action names, in case your list of actions for that room is
shorter than a list further up the environment tree.  By setting a special list
on a room, you may lock out navigation {with an "empty" list}, trim down
processing time by having it only search exits actually in the room, or expand
the search for a particular room that has special exit names.

Exits that are linked to programs to simulate exits {Objexit.muf, Rand-Exit.muf,
etc.} will not be searched.  Ambiguous matches will be ignored.

If the search is to be done inside a vehicle, set inside the room
_map/ref:{db# of vehicle object}

Note: If you want the search to check for global exits as well, @set
_nav/omatch?:yes
on the environment.  Globals will only be searched for in the origin location,
and won't be detected if the user is in a vehicle.

To lock this program out of a room or environment, @set here=_nav/ok?:no.

All page commands can be used abbreviated to unique identifiers.
  For example: 'page #gl' is the same as 'page #global'
If you page to a name it doesn't recognize, it will check to see if it is
  a personal alias.  If it isn't, it checks to see if it is a global alias.
  For example: If there is a global alias 'tyg' defined as 'Tygryss', then
  'page tyg=test' will page 'test' to Tygryss.
In format strings, %n will be replaced by the name of the player(s) receiv-
  ing the page.  %m will be replaced by the message.  %i will be replaced
  by your name.  %w gets replaced by the time.  These messages are what are
  shown to you when you page to someone.
In oformat strings, %n will be replaced by your name, %m by the message,
  and %l by your location.  %t will be replaced with the names of all the
  people in a multi-page.  %w will be replaced with the current time.
  These messages are what is shown to the player you are paging.
If you have a #prepend or #standard format with a %w, it shows you the time
  when a player paged you.
Use 'page #hints2' to show the next hints screen.

MUFpage v2.51 by Foxen   Updated 7/ 3/96   Hints2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two standard formats with page: the 'page' format, and the 'pose'
  format.  There are matching #oformats to go with them as well.
If you really dislike having your pages that begin with colon's parsed as
  page-poses, then you can 'page #oformat pose=%n pages: :%m'
  or alternately, you can simply use 'page ! <players>=<mesg>'
One good way to have all the pages to you beeped and hilighted is to do:
  'page #prepend ##page>' and then set up the this trigger in tinyfugue:
  '/def -p15 -fg -t"##page> *" = /beep 3%;/echo %e[7m%-1%e[0m'
  If you want bold hilites instead, use '%e[1m' instead of '%e[7m'
  This only works if you have version 1.5.0 or later of tinyfugue and a
  vt100 terminal type.
TinyTalk users, to make your pages always beep, use 'page #standard'
  Then all pages to you will be in standard page format.
You can specify another object to store the properties used by the page
  program on.  To do this, type 'page #proploc <object>' where <object>
  is either the name (if its in the room) or dbref of the object to use.
  #proploc will automatically copy all the page props to the new object.

PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
 
Introduction:
 
 Simply put, this program sets up an object that will follow you into
 any room that will allow it.  This is useful for pets, bodyguards, 
 robot butlers, slaves, little tykes, or those strange things that stalk
 you at night. :)
 
 Normally, the room you walk into must be JUMP_OK (and STICKY if the
 room has a drop-to) for the object to follow you.  If the room doesn't
 meet these conditions, and you do not own the room, then the object will 
 be quietly placed into your inventory, you will be told why the check 
 failed, and the pet object will go to sleep. (See Page 5.)
 The program will also fail if the room is set '_puppet_ok?:no'
 
 
usage
PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
Usage:
 
Enter 'pmake <object>', object being the object you wish to have follow
you. You must own the object, and it must be JUMP_OK.  The PetDriver
will set up all the necessary props on yourself as well as the object,
if they aren't there already. (pmake will also re-activate an already
existing pet object.) You may have as many pet objects as you want, but
only one can be active at a time. (This may change in the future.
 
Dropping the object, or calling it from home will awaken the pet.
Picking it up or sending it home will make it go to sleep.
It will also sleep if it is sent to you by a room fail.
 
 
commands
PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
Commands: 
pmake <object> : Turns an object into a follower or re-activates one.
         pcall : Awakens and summons your pet to your location
                 (or your inventory if the room-check fails.)
         phome : Sends your pet to it's home (_pet/pet_home)
                 and makes it go to sleep.
         pstat : Current pet name and it's status.
        preset : Returns your pet status to inactive.
         pwake : Wake yer pet up.
        psleep : Have yer pet fall asleep.
     pet #help : This here help file!
 
 
props
PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
Properties: 
-----------
On the pet object:
   pet/move  : What you see when the object follows you.
               (default : <objname> bounds in after you.)
   pet/omove : What everyone sees in the room the object enters.
               (default : <objname> bounds in after %m.)
   pet/amove : What everyone sees in the room the object leaves.
               This message is displayed regardless of success or failure
               (default : <objname> bounds out after %m.)
   pet/home  :Messages seen when pet is sent home.
   pet/ohome  (default for both: <objname> bounds off to home.)
 Normal pronoun substitutions work in these messages; also, %p gives
 the object's name, and %m gives your Username (as opposed to your %n)
 alias. The object's name is always tacked onto the front of the message.
   pet/pet_home: This is the location the pet is sent to when you do a 
                  'phome'. It is originally set to your HOME location. This
                  location must be owned by you.
 
 
roomprop
PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
Room Properties:
 
pets_allowed?:yes
              no
  
   This is a property Room owners can set on a room if they want to 
   allow/disallow pet objects to follow their owners in, yet do not 
   wish to alter the JUMP_OK/drop-to/STICKY status of the room. 
 
   Setting this prop to 'yes' allows objects to follow their owners
   inside a room that would normally cause the program to fail.
   
   Setting this prop to 'no' causes the room to not accept pets
   PERIOD, even if the Room owner and pet owner are the same.
 
   This property is optional; it's absence will simply make the 
   program check the JUMP_OK/drop-to/STICKY status of the room.
 
 
PET v2.20 Hacked together by Vision 1/26/93
------------------------------------------
 
Changes:
 
2.0 - initial global release
 
2.01 - changed propdirs from _pet/ to pet/.
       ( kept getting permission errors with _pet/ )
 
2.02 - couple of bug fixes, pets_allowed?:yes now overrides
       _puppet_ok?:no for movement.
 
2.1 - more bug fixes, added 'preset' command.
 
2.11 - Made 'preset' a bit more complete, and HOPEFULLY
       fixed that dreaded 'double message' bug...
 
2.12 - Bugfixed the bugfix. Should werk now. :)
 
2.13 - Forgot to put the bugfix in 'phome'. I corrected this.
 
2.15 - Relaxed some of the checking on pet movement. Now Pets can go
       anywhere puppets can. :)
 
2.20 - Program no longer installs program calls in the @succ and @drop 
       messages of your pets. Made a 'pwake' and 'psleep' command for
       that. Your pet will still not move if you're carrying it.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
General info: ( ----- cp/mv: copy/move prop ---- )
 
    cp [origobj][=prop],[destobj][=destprop]
      Copies prop from origobj to destobj, renaming it to destprop.
 
    mv [origobj][=prop],[destobj][=destprop]
      Moves prop from origobj to destobj, renaming it to destprop.
 
      Arguments in []s are optional.
      if origobj is omitted, it assumes a property on the user.
      if destobj is omitten, it assumes destobj is the same as origobj.
      if destprop is omitted, it assumes the same name as prop.
      if prop is omitted, it prompts for it.
      if both prop and origobj are omitted, it prompts for both.
      if both destobj and destprop are omitted, it prompts for them.
    NOTE1: 'virtual props' such as @desc, @succ, can be copied/moved.
    NOTE2: 'prop' may be a unix-style pattern.  ( See page 1 and 2 )

( Options: (i)ndex (n)ext (c)ontinuous (#)[page] (q)uit (?) )

Page 1: ( ----- Pattern matching ----- )
 
A pattern matching feature has been added to the program to allow matching
unix-style patterns (when copying and moving properties.  The unix-style
wildcards *, ?, [], and {} are available.  Examples should be helpful...
  
Examples:
 cp me = *hug* , object  ---> This copies all properties on the user (me) to
 an object such as 'malehug' 'hugmesg' 'chuga'.  Note this would include all
 properties in propdirs as well such as 'hug/fox' 'alpha/test/hug3'
  
NOTICE:  The DESTINATION property name is NOT pattern matched.
 mv item = d-* , = desc_*  ---> This would take properties such as 'd-cabinet'
 and rename them to 'desc_*/d-cabinet' so watch out for this.
  
You can however, match items in a propdir and put those items in a different
propdir
 mv thing = tax/o* , widget = irs  ---> This will match properties such as
 'tax/osucc' and 'tax/over' on "thing" and name them to 'irs/osucc' and
 'irs/over' on "widget".
 
 cp me = * , storage   ---> This will copy EVERY property on the user,
 (including @desc, @lock, @osucc...) and put them on an object, "storage".
 
If your property contains one of the wildcard characters (e.g. 'star*time')
you can escape ANY wildcard by preceeding it with a backslash ('star\*time')
You can escape a backslash by using 2 backslashes.
 
Page 2: ( ----- Virtual properties ----- )
 
Virtual properties ( @desc, @succ, @osucc, @fail, @ofail, @drop, @odrop )
are supported by this program. 
NEW FEATURE:  @LOCK and @IDESC have recently been added )
These only work if pattern matching ISN'T being used.
 
Example:  cp push=succ-list5,=@succ
 Copy the property 'succ-list5' to the @succ on 'push'.
 
In FB Muck, what we see as '@desc', '@succ'... is really stored as standard
properties '_/de', '_/su'...  Keep this in mind if you try something silly
like copying an entire propdir to '@succ'.
 
In addition to the 9 virtual props mentioned, you can copy all of the
virtual props by specifying '@all' (this copies the propdir '_/') This also
copies/moves anything else that happens to be in the propdir '_/' as well.
 
Page 3: ( ----- Using cp and mv in your MUF programs ----- )
 
The routines used for cp and mv have been made public.
  
cp-prop ( d1 s1 d2 s2 -- count )
  Copies prop/propdir 's1' from item d1 to item 'd2' renaming it to 's2'.
 
mv-prop ( d1 s1 d2 s2 -- count )
  Moves prop/propdir from item d1 to item 'd2' renaming it to 's2'.
  
For both of these, 'count' the number of properties moved (integer).
  
Virtual properties and pattern matching can be used with both routines.
For further info on these features, see pages 1 - 2
 
These routines are set 'public'.  If this program isn't @registerd, ask the
owner for the dbref# so you can use 'call' or '$include.'
 
Page 4: ( ----- More routines usable for MUF programs ----- )
  
cp-1 ( d1 s1 d2 s2 -- b )
  Copy one property 's1' from 'd1' to 'd2' naming it 's2'.
  
mv-1 ( d1 s1 d2 s2 -- b )
  Move one property 's1' from 'd1' to 'd2' naming it 's2'.
  
For both of these routines, 'b'=1 if successful, 0 if not.
These routines are designed to be MUCH quicker than 'cp-prop' or 'mv-prop'
 and are good if you're only copying or moving one property with no pattern
 matching or propdir copying.
To increase speed, these routines don't check the validity of the objects
 or property names.
  
confirm-cpmv ( d1 s1 d2 s2 -- d1 s1 d2 s2 b )
  Confirm existance of 'd1' and 'd2' ( print error message if bad ) and clean
  up 's1' and 's2' ( remove extra '/'s and spaces.  Also turn a blank string
  into '/' {root} ).  b = 1 if 'd1' and 'd2' are okay, 0 if not.
  
This routine can be used immediatly before a cp-1 or mv-1 like this.
  [ .... confirm-cpmv if cp-1 then ]
 
Page 5: ( ----- Bugs and other Quirks ----- )
  
Pattern matching doesn't work in the destination property (think about it..
how CAN it).  Something like>    cp me=a*,object=b*     will simply copy
all properties on you beginning with 'a' into a propdir 'b*' on 'object'
This is stated on page 1, but restated here because I've heard of this
happening to too many people.
 
The recursive bug where if you put a directory in one of its subdirectories
( eg. cp  me = dir , me = dir/alpha ) has been fixed.  YAY :)
  
If you find any bugs in this program, please contact me (Foxx Fox) via page
#mail or e-mail (firmiss@cae.wisc.edu) if I'm not around.  PLEASE tell me
as much about the situation as possible, especially the exact thing you typed
to get the error.  This will greatly improve bug-detection.

PUPCHECK   DETECTS ANY PUPPETS IN AREA                      PUPCHECK #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Auto Puppet Check 1.3  by  Riss
This program will automatically inform you if you enter a room that
 contains any objets with the _puppet? property set on them.
 This is common of remotely controlled puppets or objects.
 To disable the automatic warning you may: pupcheck #off
 To enable the warning: pupcheck #on
 Pupcheck #check   will manually run the check.
 Ver 1.3: Will NOT automatically tell you of puppets you own.


PWHO       ALLOWS YOU TO MAINTAIN A PERSONAL "WHO" LISTING  PWHO #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 The WhoSpecies (ws) program has also been modified to show puppets.
'pwho <list>' runs the personal-who program on the specified list. *
'pwho #list <list>' gives a full listing of the specified list. *
'pwho #newlist <list>' creates a new list. *
   (This asks to overwrite an existing list if necessary.
'pwho #lists' gives a listing of all your lists.
'pwho #add <player> <list>' adds the player to the list. *

'pwho #edit' edits your main list.
'pwho #ledit <list>' edits the specified list. *
'pwho #dellist <list>' deletes the specified list. *
'pwho #alias <player> = <string>' associates an alias with a player.
'pwho #alias #ok' allows you to be aliased (default).
'pwho #alias #!ok' removes your ability to be aliased.
'pwho #whois <player>' looks up an alias for the player.
'pwho #erase <player>' removes the alias for the player.
 
Commands followed by a * indicate that if <list> is not specified, 
it defaults to the main list.
Use 'pwho #help2' for more help.

'pwho #format <format>' sets your list to output in the specified format.
   (Use pwho #help format to see valid formats.)

RIDE       FOR RIDING OTHER CHARACTERS TO OTHER ROOMS       RIDE #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIDE 3.7FB by Riss
Command                 Function
Handup | carry <name>   Enables you to carry the named character.
Hopon | ride <name>     Accepts the offer to be carried by <name>.
Hopoff | dismount       Leave the ride.
Dropoff | doff <name>   Drop the named player from your ride.
Carrywho | cwho         Shows who is being carried by you.
Ridewho | rwho          Shows who you are riding.
Rideend | rend          Disables riding and cleans up.
 
Example: Riss wants to carry Lynx. Riss would: HANDUP LYNX. This would
notify Lynx that Riss offers to carry him. He can accept the offer
with: HOPON RISS. When Riss moves to another location, Lynx will move
with him. Lynx can leave the ride at any time, cleanly by a: HOPOFF,
or simply by moving away from Riss by using any normal exit.
RIDE does check Locks on exits passed through, and will not allow
someone who is locked out from entering.
 
Page #mail Riss with comments and such.
 Enter RIDE #HELP1 for other setup information!

RIDE Custom setups - RIDE can be made to display custom messages for
 most functions. You can set your own custom messages in your RIDE/
 props directory. You may have as many different modes of messages
 as you like. Set each group in a different sub directory.
MESSAGE PROP NAMES: ('taur' refers to carrier, 'rider' to rider.)
_HANDUP:      Message taur sees when using handup command.
_OOHANDUP:    Message rider sees when taur offers to carry.
_OHANDUP:     Message the rest of the room sees.
_HOPON:       Message the rider sees when hopping on.
_OOHOPON:     Message the taur sees confirming the rider hopped on.
_OHOPON:      What the rest of the room sees.
_XHOPON:      The fail message to rider when they cant get on the taur.
_OOXHOPON:    The fail message to the taur.
_OXHOPON:     What the rest of the room sees.
_HOPOFF:      Message to the rider when they hopoff.
_OOHOPOFF:    Message to the taur when the rider hops off.
_OHOPOFF:     What the rest of the room sees.
_DROPOFF:     Message to the taur when they drop a rider.
_OODROPOFF:   Message to the rider when they are dropped by the taur.
_ODROPOFF:    Ditto the rest of the room.
Enter RIDE #HELP2 for next screen.

In all the messages, %n will substitute to the taur's name, along with
 the gender substitutions %o, %p, and %s. The substitution for the
 rider's name is %l. Any message prop beginning with _O will have the
 name of the actioner appended to the front automatically.
You create the messages in a subdirectory of RIDE/ named for the mode
 you want to call it. Examples:
@set me=ride/carry/_handup:You offer to carry %l.
@set me=ride/carry/_oohandup:offers to carry you in %p hand.
@set me=ride/carry/_ohandup:offers to carry %l in %p hand.
And so on.. You would then set your RIDE/_MODE prop to CARRY to use
 the messages from that directory. @set me=ride/_mode:carry 
If you do not provide messages, or a _mode, or a bad directory name
 for _mode, then the default RIDE messages will be used.
There are 4 build in modes. RIDE, HAND, WALK, and FLY.
 RIDE is the default if your mode is not set, and is used for riding
 on ones back. HAND is holding hands to show around. WALK is just
walking with, and FLY is used for flying type messages. Feel free to
use these, or customize your own.
------------
There's more! Those are just the messages for the actions, there are
 also the messages for the movements themselves!...
Enter RIDE #HELP3 for those.

Messages used by the RIDE engine - Different substitutions apply here.
_RIDERMSG - What the rider sees when moved. Taur's name prepended and
 pronoun subs refer to the taur.
_NEWROOM - Tells the room entered by the taur and riders what's going
 on. %l is the list of riders. Taur's name prepended w/ pronoun subs.
_OLDROOM - Tells the room just left. Like _NEWROOM.
There is no specific message for the taur, as you see the _NEWROOM
 message. There are other error messages, they begin with RIDE: and
 are not alterable. Set the props in the subdirectory you named in
 your _MODE property.
 -------
One last prop... RIDE does check exits passed through for locks against
 your riders. If they are locked out, they fall off. If in your RIDE/
 directory, you @set me=ride/_ridercheck:YES
 then your riders will be checked just after you move to a new place,
 and if any are locked out, you will automatically be yoyo'ed back
 to the place you just left, and get a warning message.
 ------- 
Enter RIDE #help4 for more version change info.

Version 3.5 ---
Worked on the lock checking routines to help them work with folks using
the Driveto.muf program for transportation. Should work now. And beefed
lock checking up some. You may now set 2 new properties on ROOMS:
_yesride:yes will allow riders in to a room NO MATTER IF OTHER LOCKS
TRY TO KEEP THEM OUT.
_noride:yes will lock out all riders from a room.
Version 3.6 ---
Minor Lock change... You can now carry riders in to a room if you own
 it, even if you passed through an exit to which the riders are locked
 out. This allows you to not have to unlock exits to say, your front
 door, every time you want to carry someone in. This also bypasses _noride
LookStatus Added - A way to display your RIDE status when someone looks
 at you. Add this to the end of your @6800 desc: %sub[RIDE/LOOKSTAT]
The property RIDE/LOOKSTAT will be set on you to display either who
 you are carrying or who you are riding. This message comes from:
_LSTATTAUR: is carrying %l with %o.    <- for the 'taur  -or-
_LSTATRIDER: is being carryed by %n.   <- for the rider.
These props can be set in the same _mode directory with the other
 custom messages. Pronoun subs refer to the taur, and name is prepended.
 %l is the list of riders. %n is the taur's name.
RIDE/LOOKSTAT will _NOT_ be set until after the first move by the 'taur

SayHelp screen 99: Long tutorial
--------------------------------

Right, someone surprised me by saying that the sayhelp documentation was
 confusing.  I suppose that one of the problems with developing a program
 is over-familiarity.  Believe me, the documentation on previous versions
 were far worse.  I'd better not take up technical writing as a career.

Things you type appear as:    > "Type from after the '>' character
Example computer output as:   - Warwick says, "This is an example"

I will not echo the 'I've done that' reports from the computer.

--------------------  SIMPLE VERBS

I originally wrote say because I wanted to provide a way of switching verbs
 quickly.  This works as follows:

A 'verb' is defined as the text that forms the verb after which your speech
 appears.  The normal (or 'default') verbs are 'says' or 'say'. If you want to
 change those to 'purrs', for example:

   > sayset def purrs,       [This sets the 'Warwick purrs' verb others see]
   > sayset +def purr,       [This sets the 'You purr' verb which only you see]

The verb switching facility works by looking at the first character of the
 message you give say, and seeing if it knows to associate that character
 with a verb.  The character is called the macro character.

   > "%It's a green Wombat!                [Would normally produce..]
   - Warwick says, "%It's a green Wombat!"

   > sayset % gasps,                       [But after this 'sayset'..]
   > "%It's a green Wombat!
   - Warwick gasps, "It's a green Wombat!"

If you want to see a 'You gasp' type message, you'll need to tell say about
 that verb too.  Put a '+' before the '%', the macro character.

   > sayset +% gasp,
   > "%It's a green Wombat!
   - You gasp, "It's a green Wombat!"

Of course, you're not limited to the macro '%'. You may use any other
 single character. '~' and '@' no longer cause errors.
 If you want to set space as a macro, you must type

   > sayset sp squeaks,              > sayset +sp squeak,

To see your current state, type 'sayset' on its own.

You can clear verbs by putting a blank verb: > sayset def   > sayset +def

You can clear *everything* (verbs, quotes and filters) from a macro with

   > sayset clear def          > sayset clear %        ..and so on.

--------------------  QUOTES

You can also set customised quotes for 'def' or a given macro character.

   > sayset quotes def <<%m>>
   > "I'm hungry.
   - Warwick says, <<I'm hungry>>

If a macro doesn't have its own quotes, it will use those for 'def'.

To set quotes to 'default', miss the %m bit out:  > sayset quotes &

--------------------  SPLIT SPEECH AND ADHOC VERBS

After I had written the verb macro code, I decided to allow verbs to appear
 in the middle of speech.  This is not universally popular, and so a player
 may request only to see speech once it has been forced into the normal
 style, like  Warwick says, "Whatever".

   > sayset normal           [Forces others' speech into non-split format]
   > sayset !normal          [You can see the split style speech]

 To utter spech in a split format, type ',,' where the verb should go.

   > "This is,,split style speech.
   - "This is," Warwick says, "split style speech."

   > "This is split too,,
   - "This is split too," Warwick says.

   > "%You can also,,use macros.
   - "You can also," Warwick gasps, "use macros."

If you want to, you may use a verb without setting a macro, by allowing
 'ad-hoc' verbs.

   > sayset !adhoc                             [Disallows 'adhoc' verbs]
   > sayset adhoc                              [Allows 'adhoc' verbs]
   > "This,,complains,,is getting confusing.
   - "This," complains Warwick, "is getting confusing."

   > "You wouldn't dare!,,growls %n, looking all fierce,,
   - "You wouldn't dare!" growls Warwick, looking all fierce.

The trailing commas here distinguish a simple split say from an adhoc verb.
 Otherwise, you'd get:

   > "You wouldn't dare!,,growls %n, looking all fierce.
   - "You wouldn't dare!" says Warwick, "growls %n, looking all fierce."


A detail here is that in split speech, the name usually appears after the verb.
 Putting a comma at the end of a verb makes say put the name before the verb.

   > "Look,,squeaks,,         - "Look," squeaks Warwick.
   > "Look,,squeaks,,,        - "Look," Warwick squeaks.

This also happens to verbs set with sayset. A trailing comma has no effect on
 non-split style speech.


Two special verb styles are available and both influence split speech.

There is an old form which disables you from using split speech for a macro:

   > sayset ! says, "%m"

   > "!This,,is,,split,,not,,at,,all
   - Warwick says, "This,,is,,split,,not,,at,,all"

A second form allows you to put text after the second half of a split message:

   > sayset ! says%2 and growls.

   > "!Shut up!
   - Warwick says, "Shut up!" and growls.
   > "!It's mine.,,bog off!
   - "It's mine." Warwick says, "Bog off!" and growls.

----------------  QUERY

After writing split speech, I decided to do something about saying 'bye' to
 people who had just left, but whose departure the lag had hidden.

   > sayset !query            [Disables this facility]
   > sayset query             [Enables this facility]
   > "?Riss,,Bye!
   - Warwick says, "Bye!" to Riss.
or - Riss is here but asleep.
or - I don't see that here.

   > "?Riss,,?Kimi,,?Fuzz,,Aaargh!
   - Warwick says, "Aaargh!" to Fuzz, Riss and Kimi
(This only works if Riss, Kimi *and* Fuzz are all present and awake.)

If you don't put a message at the end, you will just get a status report.

   > "?Riss
   - Riss is here and awake.
or - Riss is here but asleep

Note, if you're using this, you can't use the macro '?'

---------------  OOC (Out Of Character) MODE

This was requested by Riss.

The intention here is to distinguish between a character who can answer
 techincal questions and ones who are capable of asking questions like
 'What is a Florida?'

The flag _ooc is changed from _ooc:yes to nonexistence. Hopefully, pose and
 other programs will support it sometime.

   > sayset !ooc      [Unsets OOC mode]
   > sayset ooc
   > "Type @link ba = #2
   - Warwick says (OOC), (Type @link bs = #2)

You can customise OOC mode by typing 'ooc' where you could type 'def'.

---------------  FILTERS

This was the other major introduction to speech.  A filter is a program,
 seperate from the say program, which is called by say to modify text or
 perform some other function.  If you are familiar with pipes in Unix, then
 this is similar.

To see a brief description of what sort of filters are available, type

   > sayfilter

Name         | Description, For more help, type 'sayhelp <filtername>'
-------------+----------------------------------------------------------
$RandomVerbs | Not a filter. Selects random verbs.
Reverse      | Reverses speech character by character
Replace      | Standard text replacing filter
-------------+----------------------------------------------------------

Because filters have help on them, I can only give general help here.

Filter help from  > sayhelp <filtername>

A 'filter' which begins with '$' is a verb-program and supplies verbs via a
 program rather than reading fixed properties.

   > sayhelp $RandomVerbs
   - ....
   > sayset def $RandomVerbs

 If a verb program takes commands, they are issued with

   > ",,<command>

 See the verb-program helps for more information. eg > sayhelp $RandomVerbs

A normal filter modifies spoken text. You add a filter to a macro with

   > sayfilter def fadd <Filtername>     ['def' can also be '%' etc]

List which filters are on a macro with

   > sayfilter def flist
   - def/1 : Replace
   - def/2 : Jumble
   - def/3 : Quotation

And remove a filter with
   > sayfilter def ftake <filtername>
or > sayfilter def ftake.<position-in-flist-list>

To send a command to a filter on a macro, eg 'def',

   > sayfilter def <command>

If you wanted to send the command 'foo bar 5' to the filter 'Quotation' (number
 3 on the list), but you thought 'Replace' might know about it too, you can
 type:

   > sayfilter def foo.3 bar 5

This also works in taking fliters off macros.

          > sayfilter def ftake.2
but also: > sayfilter def ftake Jumble

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry, this is scruffy at the end, but I'm tired and this should get you to the
 stage of being able to read sayhelp 1-11.
. Err, sorry. I said it was late. 3-10

SMELL      SMELL SOMETHING OR SOMEONE                       SMELL #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Smell v2.01, by Lynn_Onyx [Last update 04/03/96]
-===================================================================-
 
To set a _scent on something:
     @set <object> = _scent : <what it smells like>
 
     The _scent property is parsed for MPI commands, and evaluated with
     %substitutions, using the program gen-desc v2.0 (#11632).
 
To be notified when something is smelled:
     @set <object> = _smell_notify : <notify-format string>
 
     A notify-format string should include %n, which evaluates to the
     smeller's name; MPI parsing and normal pronoun_subs are performed
     on the format string.  If a non-player with a _smell_notify is
     sniffed, the object's owner is notified.
 
For information on room _scent's, type 'smell #rooms'
For examples of _scent and _smell_notify, type 'smell #examples'

-===================================================================-
 
Room Scents:
     Rooms are handled a little differently from other objects by the
     smell program.  If a room has a _scent, then that is what is
     shown to someone smelling the room.  If the room has no _scent,
     then 'You smell a number of scents, mingled together.' is given,
     and the _scent's of every object in the room, besides the person
     doing the smelling, are displayed, prefaced by the name of the
     object.  Exits with _scent's are not displayed in this manner.
     The 'You smell...mingled together.' message can be changed, by
     setting the _room_scent property on the room.
 
     Setting a _room_scent on an object will let that property be used
     instead of the _scent when someone smells a room containing it.
 
     _room_scent properties are parsed for MPI commands.
 
For examples of _scent and _room_scent, type 'smell #examples'

-===================================================================-
 
Simple _scent on an object:
     @set me = _scent : %n smells like elderberries!
 
Simple _scent on a room:
     @set here = _scent : There is an overwhelming smell of bamboo here
 
Simple _smell_notify:
     @set me = _smell_notify : %n just smelled you!
 
Simple _room_scent on a room:
     @set here = _room_scent : A faint odor of freshly-baked donuts
                               permates the room; mixed in with the
                               bakery-smells, you can detect...
 
Simple _room_scent on an object:
    @set me = _room_scent : You get a faint whiff of berries from
                            %n -- perhaps if you smelled %s, it would
                            be clearer what type.


SPOOF      ANONYMOUS MESSAGES FOR SPECIAL EFFECTS           SPOOF #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spoof v2.62 usage: spoof <message>
                  anonymously show message to all in the room.
 
Note: to spoof a message beginning with #, you must double the #.
      spoof ## This is a message beginning with one #.
 
Type 'spoof #install' for help on installing spoof exits in rooms.
Type 'spoof #examples' for examples of how you might install spoofs.
Type 'spoof #commands' for a list of additional #keywords.
Type 'spoof #changes' to see new changes in spoof.
Spoof v2.4 installation:
 
Exits may be linked to the spoof program ($spoof) from a player,
object, or room, by doing this:
    @action spoof = <object>
    @link spoof = $spoof
 
Unless a spoof action is on a room, it is always restricted.
A restricted spoof can never begin with the name of a player and
is enclosed in parentheses.
 
A spoof exit on a room can be set as follows:
    spoof #free
    spoof #restricted
    spoof #message (some message with %m)
 
A free spoof lets the players spoof whatever they like, whether or
not it is the name of a player.  A restricted spoof is like a free
spoof except that it will not let people spoof other people's names.
And a message spoof, which is any string with %m in it, will substitute
the spoofed message for %m.
 
Action Spoof:
    Type 'spoof #action' to format your spoof to allow free-style actions.
The spoof must be on a room, and you must own the spoof to set it.  A
free-style action will let you have your name in it anywhere, or %n,
and will perform pronoun substitutions.  (use %%n for your %n property)
 
Example: spoof In a flash of fur, Lynx disappears.
 
Puppet Spoof:
    Type 'spoof #puppet' to format your spoof to allow puppet actions.
The spoof must be on an object, and you must own the spoof to set it.
Also, the room or an environment of the room must be set _puppet_ok?:yes
to allow you to use puppets.  A puppet spoof will put the name of the object
in front of all spoofs, allowing you to simulate a puppet.
 
Example: @action spoof = fire-lizard
         @link spoof = $spoof
         spoof #puppet
         spoof chirps and looks around hopefully for food.
         fire-lizard chirps and looks around hopefully for food.
 
You may set a spoof to reveal who spoofed to a few select people.
They will be told only if they are in the same room.
    spoof #tattletale player1
    (this will tell them even if they change names later)
 
You may prevent certain people from using your spoof program.
    spoof #lock player1
    (this will work even if they change names later)
 
For examples, type 'spoof #examples'
Spoof v2.3 examples:
 
Example of a spoof message on yourself:
  > @action spoof = me
  > @link spoof = $spoof
  > spoof This is a test.
  ( This is a test. )
  > spoof Wizard jumps up and down.
  Error: spoofs cannot begin with player names!
  > @recycle spoof
 
Example of spoof formats on a room:
  > @open spoof = $spoof
  > spoof This is the default restricted form.
  ( This is the default restricted form.
  > spoof #message On the stage, %m
  > spoof Romeo carols praises to Juliet's virtues.
  On the stage, Romeo carols praises to Juliet's virtues.
  > spoof #free
  > spoof Wizard toads you.
  Wizard toads you.
 
Examples of spoof tattletale:
  > spoof #tattletale Lynx
  > @set spoof = _spoof:free
  > spoof You have been booted off the system!
  You have been booted off the system!
  # spoofed by Lynx #
Note that only Lynx sees the line in #'s.
 
Examples of spoof locks:
  > spoof #lock Lynx
  > spoof This is a test.
  Error: you are not allowed to spoof here!
Spoof v2.6x commands:
 
Type 'spoof #free' to let people spoof any message.
Type 'spoof #restricted' to prevent people from spoofing messages starting
    with player names.
Type 'spoof #action' to allow people to make free-style spoofs.
Type 'spoof #puppet' to make an NPC object.
Type 'spoof #message <format> to set a special format with %m for the message.
Type 'spoof #tattletale <name>' to add someone to the spoof's tattletale.
Type 'spoof #lock <name>' to add someone to the spoof's lock list.
Type 'spoof #recent' to see who did the 10 most recent spoofs in the room.
Type 'spoof #history N' where N=# of lines (1-20) to keep for the #recent command (default 10).
Type 'spoof #nosee' to not allow #recent to work in the room.
Type 'spoof #see' to let #recent work in the room again.
Type 'spoof #check' to see who is on the spoof's tattletale and lock lists.
  The above commands (except #recent) all require you to own the spoof.
  #tattletale and #lock let you type !name to remove a name.
Type 'spoof #feep' to...  Well, it's a feep.  Find out for yourself. *'gryn*
 
Spoof v2.62 changes:
Added spoof #history.
 
Spoof v2.61 changes:
Added spoof #nosee and spoof #see (see spoof #commands for help).
Fixed the bug with using spoof #check (thanks Points!).
 
Spoof v2.6 changes:
spoof #recent added, tells most recent spoofs in a room and who did them.
 
Spoof v2.5 changes:
Owners may now set _spoof_tattletale:(list of names and numbers) on rooms
to allow them to see who did *all* spoofs including personal spoofs or 
puppets.  The same applies to _spoof_lock.  However this must be done
manually.
 
spoof #check will now work for any spoof and will tell you what tattletales
and locks there are on the spoof, the room or its environments, and the
global spoof tattletale and locks.
 
Also, set an environment _puppet_ok?:no if you do not want puppets to be
used in it.

   sweep time.  ie: if you have a _sweep_nasty format set, you can use it by 
   typing 'sweep <player>=nasty' 


THINK      SEND CUSTOMIZED MESSAGES TO PLAYERS IN SAME ROOM THINK
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Usage: think message                   -- sends to all psionic receivers
        think all = message             -- sends to all (must be blaster)
        think name [name ...] = message -- sends to specified
        think = message                 -- same recipients as last send
 For more information, type "think help"
 Usage:
     think message -- broadcasts a message to all psionically
                      active players in the room
     think all = message -- if you are a 'blaster', broadcasts to all
                            players in the room regardless of their
                            individual talents; otherwise defaults to
                            the previous case
     think name [name ...] = message -- broadcasts a message to the
                                        players listed; only
                                        'blasters' can send to non-
                                        psionic players
     think = message -- broadcasts a message to the same group as you
                        specified last time
 Properties:
     _psi: sensitive, active, or blaster
     _psi_format: any string
     last_psi: set by this program, last group you sent to
 Notes:
     Sensitive players may not transmit messages to other players
 or hear them.  When psionics are used in the room around them,
 they will see their own special string.  Example:
     @set me = _psi:sensitive
     @set me = _psi_format:You sense psionic activity from %n.
     [then someone uses psionics]
     You sense psionic activity from Tygryss.
     Active players may transmit only to other active players or to
 blasters.  Their messages are sent using their special strings;
 these should contain \"%m\", which will be replaced with the message
 to be sent.  Example:
     @set me = _psi:active
     @set me = _psi_format:thinks, << %m >>
     think Hello, everyone?
     [You and everyone who is eligible in the room sees this]
     Tygryss thinks, << Hello, everyone? >>
     Blasters normally transmit as active players do, but may also
 transmit to all players regardless of their psionic abilities by
 using \"think all= message\".  This works much as shown above.
     You can only send to people in the same room, but you can use just
 the leading characters in their name as long as that's unambiguous.

| DISCLAIMER: Not all destinations covered by the |
| JumpRoom are available via this action.  If you |
| have a destination you would like to add to the |
| main listing, please contact BoingDragon.       |
+-------------------------------------------------+--------------------+
|  To teleport to a given destination, use: tport <destination>        |
|    Example: 'tport jr' will teleport you to the JumpRoom.            |
|                                                                      |
|  Destinations can be rooms or people, as long as one of the          |
|  following conditions are met:                                       |
|                                                                      |
|  Person is LINK_OK, _teleport_allow?:yes, or has your dbref as       |
|    part of their _teleport_allow:<dbrefs> list.                      |
|  Room is LINK_OK, _vok?:yes, _teleport_allow?:yes or is owned by     |
|    you.                                                              |

|  The _teleport_allow: property also acts as a 'key' if given a       |
|  list of db-refs for room, actions, or players that are permitted    |
|  to teleport there.                                                  |
|  For full documentation on teleport.muf, @list #44626=1-40           |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
|  For convenience, the destination listing is broken down into        |
|  area groupings accessible via a menu.  To list the different        |
|  areas, use: tdests                                                  |
|                                                                      |
|  Each area has its own listing of destinations, available by         |
|  using: tdests <area>                                                |
|    Example: 'tdests central' will list the destinations under        |
|             the 'Central Furry' area heading.                        |
|                                                                      |
|  You can also set your own Personal Destinations, which can be       |
|  listed with 'tdests me'. (see page 3 for more info)                 |
|                                                                      |
|  To quickly find out if there is a destination or path to a          |
|  given room, use 'tsearch <string>' where <string> is a part of      |
|  the name you are searching for.                                     |
|    Example: 'tsearch dragon' will display all destinations with      |
|             the word 'dragon' in them.                               |    
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
|  The command to add your own personal destinations to yourself is    |
|  'tport #add'.  You will then be prompted for teleport code, dbref,  |
|  and optional description text for that destination.  These are in   |
|  format <code>:<number>:<description>.  If you don't give a custom   |
|  description, the destination's real name will be shown when you do  |
|  'tdests me'                                                         |
|     Example: bed:12345:My bedroom                                    |
|     (where the room's database reference is #12345)                  |
|                                                                      |
|  To remove a personal destination, type 'tport #delete'.  You will   |
|  then be shown your destinations and asked to enter the code for     |
|  the one you want to remove.                                         |
|                                                                      |
|  You can edit your personal destinations list directly by using      |
|  'lsedit me=_tel/dests'                                              |
|                                                                      |
|  You can also pass db #'s, character names, and registered dests     |
|  directly.  Type '@reg #help' for more about the @register command.  |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+
|  To set custom teleport messages, use:                               |
|    @set me=_tel/succ:<message user sees when teleporting.>           |
|    @set me=_tel/osucc:<pose room sees when person teleports out.>    |
|    @set me=_tel/odrop:<pose room sees when person teleports in.>     |
|                                                                      |
|  Example: @set me=_tel/osucc:disappears with a soft *BAMPF!*         |
|                                                                      |
|  Teleport now supports pronoun substitution and MPI in messages!     |
|  You can also insert your destination name with '%d' and your        |
|  starting point's name with '%l'                                     |
|                                                                      |
|  These messages can also be set by typing 'tport #config', which     |
|  will prompt you for each message and then show you how they will    |
|  appear in actual use.                                               |
+----------------------------------------------------------------------+ 
| You've just created a nice area that you would like people to visit, |
| so you think a global teleport destination is what you need.         |
|                                                                      |
| Before requesting the destination from BoingDragon, there are a few  |
| requirements that must be met by your area:                          |
|                                                                      |
|   1) It must not be a 'floating' room. That is, there must be a way  |
|      for people to get to it without a teleport or a direct link.    |
|                                                                      |
|   2) You must know the region of FurryMUCK your area is in.          |
|                                                                      |
|   3) The destination room must be set _teleport_allow?:yes           |
|                                                                      |
| Although it is not a requirement, areas that are open for people to  |
| create their homes in are given preference over other areas.         |
|                                                                      |
| The info you must page #mail to BoingDragon are the dbref, name,     |
| location, and purpose of the destination.                            |

   %n    Name of player logging in/out
   %v    Appropriate verb, of 'connected', 'disconnected', or 'reconnected'
   %t    The current time
   %l    The player's location (useful for Wizards only)
         (If a non-wizard tries to use this, it will only specify 'Somewhere')

WHATISXXX  SPECIAL INFORMATION UTILITY, XXX VERSION         WIXXX #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- WhatIsz 1.33 : Ruffin@FurToonia  Mar 26 1997 ------------------------------
WhatIsz lets you set a list of flags on yourself that others can look at
for quick reference.  You can use all the standard flags and also add 20
custom letters - limited to keep from spamming everyone.

wixxx #help2 - Important stuff!  Read me!
wixxx        - Show whatis info for everyone awake in the room
wixxx <name> - Show whatis info for that person
wixxx <mask> - Show whatis info for any person online whose name matches
            the mask, such as 'Ruf*' or just '*' for all
wixxx #help  - This screen
wixxx #flags - Show all the standard flags you can use.
wixxx #set <flags> - Set your whatis flags to those listed.
wixxx #add <flags> - Add the listed flags to your whatis setting.
wixxx #clear <flags> - Clear the listed flags from your whatis setting.
wixxx #custom <text> - Set your custom text, up to 20 characters worth.
wixxx #find <flags> - Find anyone online with those whatis flags set.
wixxx #order <flags> - Show these flags first when viewing others.
   <flags> is a space separated list of flags (wixxx #flags to see them)

Nifty and important things to keep in mind about WhatIsz

* To turn off the '[unset]' in your WhatIsz listing without actually setting
  any flags, just do a 'wixxx #set'.  Or do a 'wixxx #set nwi' (whatiszless).
* To stop your sex/species showing from afar, do a '@set me=_wsobjector:far'
* Look at 'wixxx #custom' which will allow you to set any text you want.
* WhatIsz is fairly forgiving about flag names.  You don't have to remember
  that 'silly' is 'si' instead of 's'.  You can just use 'silly' or 'sil'
* WhatIsz displays your flags in the order you #set them (unless someone's
  #order overrides it).  You don't have to give them alphabetically.
* This program has been supported by user contributions and a major grant
  from the National Endowment for the Inanities.

WHENGRAPH  DISPLAYS A GRAPH OF CONNECTION STATISTICS        WG #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WhenGraph - By Riss - Ver 1.2
 WG       - Displays a graph of the last 24 hours low and
             counts of connections to the server. 
 WG #dif  - Same display but with differential graph.
 WG #help - This message.
 


WHEREARE   SEE PLAYERS LOCATED IN CERTAIN POPULAR ROOMS     WA #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WhereAre  ver. 1.6 by Riss of FurryMuck. Another (W)acky global.
WhereAre will display the number of awake characters in rooms set
 with the _WhereAre:<comments> property. Removal of that property
 will remove the room from possible inclusion in the list.
Example: @set here=_whereare:T|D games nightly 
 might be good for a room that has T|D games in it often so others can see
 if there are people using the room. Directions to the room can be placed
in the property _wherearedir:  for display with WA #dir
WA            - Displays enabled rooms with 2 or more people awake.
WA n          - n = MINIMUM number of people awake to display the room.
WA [n] #name  - Display names of folks awake in rooms.
WA [n] #dir   - Displays Directions to rooms if avaliable (70 char max)
WA #never     - to HIDE your name from the WhereAre #name list.
WA #always    - to include your name regardless of WhereIs setting.
WA #reset     - to use the basic default settings from WhereIs.
WA #whereis   - Same as WA #reset.
WA #prude     - Disables showing Adult areas. (default)
WA #adult     - Enables showing Adult areas.
WA #def [com] - Set command to be the default command for WhereAre.
WhereAre will default to using the basic settings you selected for
 WhereIs. If you have your WhereIs program #OK and you are NOT #UNFIND
 then you can be included in the name display. WhereAre does not use
 WhereIs' #ignore or #priority functions. If you never wish to be
 included in a WhereAre name display set WA #never.
 Your name will also be hidden if you are Haven.


WHEREIS    SHOWS LOCATIONS OF PLAYERS SPECIFIED             WHEREIS #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@Whereis HELP screen - page 1 - General Usage and Information - Version: 3.1
  
@Whereis is a program designed to locate other people, with their permission.
General usage is '@whereis <name> [<name>.. <name>..]'
Multiple names are supported on the line, as well as page-aliases.
Using '@whereis' by itself will attempt to locate everyone on your name list.
  
The following are options used in the format '@whereis <option>'
                                   Example:  '@whereis #unfindable'
- #ok                   : Used to turn on usage of this program for you.
- #!ok                  : Used to turn off usage of this program for you.
- #unfindable           : Set yourself as unfindable.
- #!unfindable          : Clear your unfindable status setting.
- #room                 : Set the room as unfindable, if you own it. Everyone
                        : in the room will be treated as unfindable.
- #!room                : Clear the room's unfindable status.
- #haven                : Set your HAVEN flag.
- #!haven               : Clear your HAVEN flag.
 *** NOTE: (other programs will be affected by the HAVEN flag, so be warned).
- #who                  : Shows your current settings.

                        : normally be findable.
- #!ignore <person>     : Remove <person> from your ignore list.
- #ignore               : Check who is on your ignore list.
 *** NOTE:  People in #priority will overrule all settings, including #ignore,
            so a person in both #priority and #ignore can find you.
- #list <list name>     : Attempt to find everyone in your PWHO list that
                        : is called <list name>.  'main' is the name

WHODO      "WHO" LISTING WITH "DOING" ENTRIES               WD #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WhoDo 1.92 by Riss
WD                 -Shows the name, times, and Doings of on line folks.
WD [name pattern]  -Shows info only for those names starting in pattern.
WD #pwho [altlist] -Scans your main or alternate Pwho list of players.
WD #qspe [altlist] -Like #pwho, but with species.
WD #room           -Scans awake players in the room.
WD #conn [minutes] -Scans only players connected after you or minutes.
WD #watc           -Scans your WatchFor list.
WD #ospe           -Like #watc, but with species.
WD #spec [namepat] -Like WD, but shows Sex and Species.
WD s:<text...text> -Set the Sticky Doing to <text>
WD s:              -Clears the Sticky Doing
WD t:<text...text> -Set the Temp Doing to <text>
WD t:              -Clears the Temp Doing. (Moving to a new room also clears)
WD #def [command]  -Sets or clears the default command WD will execute.
WD #temp on | off  -WD will(on) | will not(off) display Temp Doing remotely.
The Sticky Doing is the property that remains until changed by you.
The Temp Doing clears itself when you move to a new room.
The Temp Doing will only display to others in the same room as you,
 unless you 'WD #temp on'  which will make your Temp Doing available
 to be looked at by folks outside the room. '>' displays before a Temp Doing.
Viewing of your sex and species may be disabled with @set me=_wsobjector:far
To get a normal full WD list when you have a default set: WD #norm
 V1.91 #watc scan fixed not to show odd matching names.


WHOSPE     SHOWS THE SPECIES AND GENDER OF PLAYERS IN ROOM  WS #HELP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WhoSpecies Ver 1.93 by Riss
Displays the name, sex, species, and doing propertys of players.
If called by whospe <playername> then will only show information
on that one player in the room.
-------------------------------------
Props you set:     species:       Brief description of your species
                   species_prop:  Name of prop to read species from
                                   if different from species.
Set the props on yourself. No need to set species if species_prop is used.
Examples:
If you have @set me=species:Centaur then Centaur will display in list.
If you have @set me=species_prop:current then the list will display
the value of your property called current. This could be used with some
morphing programs and the @6800 general-desc program.
The sex is taken from the Gender or Sex props, with Sex overriding Gender.
[asleep] will be displayed next to the names of sleeping players.

WhoSpe will now look at a remote players species. This is done with:
 whospe #far <player's full name>
If you @set me=_wsobjector:far  then #far will not work on you.
---------------------------------
WhoSpe can now be set to display an extra line that can be used for a 'doing'
action. In other words, you can let others who use WhoSpe know what you
are doing. You set your doing by:
 whospe doing: <the text of what you are doing>
 (or whospe do: <text.......>  will do the same thing.)
Note - There must be a space after the doing: or do:
Example: I could set myself to say: Sitting quietly in the park.
and when someone ran WhoSpe they would see my infomation plus the line:
   Doing: Sitting quietly in the park.
To be able to see these lines if they are available from players, you must
do: whospe #doing.  To ignore these lines (default) do: whospe #!doing.
To clear your doing line, just enter: whospe doing: with no text.
WhoSpe will display your TEMP Doing if available, otherwize it will
 display your STICKY Doing. WhoSpe sets _ONLY_ your STICKY doing.
 For more info on TEMP and STICKY Doings, see the DOING global command.
-----------------------------------
Idle time display: Defaults to players idle for more than
 120 seconds. You may set a prop on yourself _WSIDLE with the number of
 seconds before you see the idle flag next to player's names.
Enjoy! -Riss
