pose[/noeval] <action pose>
:<action pose>
pose[/nospace] <action pose>
semipose[/noeval] <action pose>
;<action pose>
Displays your name followed by the statement you posed. May be abbreviated
by the ':' symbol. Normally, a space is placed between your name and the
action you are posing. If you do not wish to have a space inserted, use
the /nospace switch, the 'semipose' command, or the ';' symbol.
The /noeval switch prevents the pose from being evaluated by
the parser.
Examples:
If you are player Bob, and you type in ':laughs out loud.' or
'pose laughs out loud.' everybody in the room will see:
"Bob laughs out loud."
If you are player Bob, and you type in ';'s smiling today.' or
'pose/nospace 's smiling today.' everybody in the room will see:
"Bob's smiling today."
