19.2.2 Block Marker Commands.
When playing a game, it is useful to be able to mark a block of text and move it to another location,
such as the clipboard. For example, when there is a complicated and long-winded description that
you want to re-read and think over before making your next move.
The following block marker commands can be used when playing games:
To insert a block marker, press BACKSPACE with M.
To copy a block to the clipboard, press BACKSPACE with K.
To paste the contents of the clipboard into the input prompt, press BACKSPACE with V.
19.2.3 System Words.
There are numerous special words, called system words and these are used to perform actions
outside the game, but are very important. They include:
"Restart" - to restart a game.
"Restore" - to load a saved game.
"Save" - to save a game.
"Undo" - to undo the last move (not available in all games).
"Quit" - to leave a game.
19.2.4 Shorthand.
Many game commands have the option of entering shorthand. This is useful when you have
commands that you need to frequently type, often a long and tedious process. The important
examples of shorthand include:
"l" - for look.
"x" - for examine.
"n", "s", "e", "w" - for North, South, East and West.
"g" - for Again (to repeat the last move).
