[ 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.

This was recently expanded to take repetition up to 9; so you could conceivably do something like '9east'. Note, however, system change notes imply that developers would rather we do mass movement as 'go 9e' or even 'go 40ne', as it takes less to process.
