The Show Command

• The show command is a general facility used to display a variety of different information about your character. The basic syntax is usually either 'show <value>' or 'show <value> <argument>', and depends on the individual showable value. You can also combine multiple values in a list; for example, 'show elude, stealth' or 'show level, experience needed and quest points'. One last option is 'show continuously <values...>', which allows you to tell the system that you do not want your output to be split into pages. Help is available on each individual showable value; use 'help show <value>' for information.

• The command 'report' is closely related to the show command, and is essentially a spoken version of the same functionality. One difference, however, is that various showable values are considered out-of-character information, and these values are not usable with the report command.

• The showable values you can use are listed below.
