 There are many ways to communicate with with other players online. Here are
 the most common ways:

   Command  Description
   -------  -----------
    say      speak to others in the room
    pose     pose an action to others in the room
    page     send a message long-distance to another player online
    +com     talk to everyone joined to a particular chat channel
    +mail    send an in-game mail message to another player

   Examples:
     say Hello!         (Everyone in the room hears: Yourname says, "Hello!")
     pose waves hello.    (Everyone in the room hears: Yourname waves hello.)
     page Fred=I need help.        (Fred hears: Yourname pages: I need help.)
     +com newbie=Which culture should I join?
        (Everyone joined to the <Newbie> chat channel hears:
         <Newbie> Yourname says, "Which culture should I join?" )
 
 It is worth noting that most of the commands on the previous page can be
 abbreviated. The "say" command can be abbreviated by typing a single double-
 quote symbol (") followed by what you want to say. For example, type:

       "Hi everyone.

 (including the quote mark in front). The "pose" command can be abbreviated
 by using a colon (:) in the same way. The "page" command can be shortened to
 the single letter "p". (E.g. "p Fred=I need help.") And if you want to page
 the same player that you last paged again, you can leave out the name and
 the = sign (e.g. "p Nice to see you again, Fred.") Finally, you can speak
 on your default +com channel (which starts out as the Newbie channel) by
 just typing an equals sign (=) followed by what you want to say. Try this:

       =I'm new here!

 Type "help <command>" for more help on any of the above commands.
 Type "help intro" to return to the list of quick-start topics.
