******************************************************************************

There are a number of commands within the mud.  You can get a list of those 
available to you at any time by simply typing "commands".  A description of the 
functionality of each command follows, divided up by category.

******************************************************************************
Basic commands
******************************************************************************

1. CREATE: Allows you to create a body, if you haven't already.

2. QUIT: Leave the mud.  You can use this mid-fight as a way to surrender (you 
   still get a 'Loss' if you do this).

******************************************************************************
Administrative commands
******************************************************************************

1. SHUTDOWN: Shuts the mud down (requires a password).  You cannot use this 
   command until you've created a body.

2. CREDITS: Lists the game credits.

******************************************************************************
Information commands
******************************************************************************

1. WHO: Display all players currently connected, along with their current 
   number of wins, losses and kills.  It also informs you how many players are 
   hidden in the crowd (ie. haven't created bodies yet).

2. COMMANDS: List the commands currently available to you.

3. SCORE: Displays your name, status and statistics.

4. PROMPT: Allows you to customise your prompt.

******************************************************************************
Communication commands
******************************************************************************

2. CHAT: Say something to everyone else in the mud.  You cannot do this until 
   you've created a body.

3. EMOTE: Perform an emote (emotion) to everyone else in the room.  Your name 
   (or "Someone in the crowd" if you've not created a body yet) will be 
   appended to the front of the emote - eg if KaVir typed "emote grins", 
   everyone would see "KaVir grins".
