[ Repeating commands ]

The numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5 are simple repetition aliases. If you wish to execute a single command several times in a row, simply type the appropriate number immediately followed by the command; i.e. "3east" or "5bounce". Please try not to overuse repetition to the point that it will lag the mud. That could simply result in the commands being removed.
