                              Command : ANNOUNCE

 SYNTAX:
   [##:##] Command: announce

The announce command is a variant of the telegram command.  It sends your mes-
sage  to  _a_l_l  of  the  players in the game.  This convenient service may cost
money to provide, depending on your deity.

A banner line saying  ANNOUNCEMENT  is  prepended  to  your  message  so  that
announcements  won't  be  confused  with  telegrams.   In  all other respects,
announcements are exactly the same as telegrams.

For example:
   [##:##] Command: announce

                              Command : ANNOUNCE

   Enter telegram for everyone; end with ^D
