$[aversion$] <^cmud^n>    - Report current version of a client and the server.

$[apolicy$] <^ctopic^n>   - Read the policy regarding AberChat usage.

Mud names and player names can be abbreviated, so if you wanted to send a private message to a player, for example :
 
'$[atell$] ^cbobdobbs@coolmud hello^n' is the same as '$[atell$] ^cbobdobbs@cool hello^n'.

See $(info comms$) for details of local communication channels.
