.NA announce "Send an announcement to all players"
|
|
.LV Basic
|
|
.SY "announce"
|
|
The announce command is a variant of the telegram command.
|
|
It sends your message to \fIall\fR of the players in the game.
|
|
This convenient service may cost money to provide, depending on
|
|
your deity.

|
|
A banner line saying \*QANNOUNCEMENT\*U is prepended to your message
|
|
so that announcements won't be confused with telegrams. In
|
|
all other respects, announcements are exactly the same as telegrams.
|
|

|
|
For example:
|
|
.EX announce
|

Enter telegram for everyone; end with ^D
