Syntax: describe

Describe allows you yo alter your description, which people see when they
look at you. It doesn't take an argument; instead, typing describe will
put you into the editor where you can enter the test, complete with line
feeds if you desire. Try not to use more then 2 or 3 lines, thought; it's
more polite.
