| + | ==How To Use Look== | ||
| + | Look is about the most basic command on a MU* aside from using say. The command is '''look''' followed by the name of the object you want to look at. Looking at a room will tell you what the room looks like. Looking at a player will show you a description of the character if they have one set. You can also abbreviate look by typing only the first letter. | ||

The basics of communication on TwistedMUCK, or any other MUCK for that matter, is the use of the Say system. This program controls posing and speaking. To pose use a colon. To speak use an open quote. Here's an example. Output is shown in parenthesis.
:waves. (Guest1 waves) "Hello! (Guest1 exclaims, "Hello!")
You can also use these same commands to speak on our Public and Guests channels simply by adding the channel alias (public is pub. Guest is +g) before you speak. Additionally you don't have to use an open quote when speaking on these channels.
pub :waves! ([Public] Guest1 waves!) pub How's it going? ([Public] Guest1 asks, "How's it going?")
