Say
From Tapestries MUCK
Say is a core function of the MUCK, allowing people to talk freely. It is usually abbreviated to '"' (a doublequote).
Syntax
For the purpose of these examples, please assume the player entering the commands is named Player.
Command line: say Hello, World! Result: Player sees:You say, "Hello, World!"
Others in the same room as Player see:Player says, "Hello, World!"
Command line:
"Hi, how are ya?
Result:
Player sees:
You say, "Hi, how are ya?"
Others in the same room as Player see:
<code>Player says, "Hi, how are ya?"
Usage notes
- The say command will automatically generate a closing doublequote; adding one yourself will lead to having a pair of doublequotes finishing your post.
- Because the say command adds a closing quote, it is generally of limited value in adding an action to your pose. For that, the Pose command may be a better option.
- While the say command uses a default of 'say/says', this default can be changed. The simplest way would be the Player Hammer program, which allows easy player customization of several variables.
