                                Command : DSPY

 SYNTAX:
   [##:##] Command: dspy <SPIES> [subcommand] [args]...

The `dspy' command is exactly equivalent in function  to  the  `spy'  command,
except  that  it  reports  and manipulates only your double agents -- that is,
those spies that are actually owned by  someone  else,  but  work  "under  the
table" for you.  (See `info spy for more information about using spies.)

A spy can become a double agent through a  variety  of  ways,  such  as  being
caught  by your military, or through general frustration and unhappiness while
working for his homeland.  Since they are such extremely independant servants,
you  can  never  really know when, why or how a spy will sell out to the other
side, but if and when they do, your trusted spy can quickly become more  of  a
liability  than an asset.  The foreign power will have virtually the same con-
trol over him as you do (in some cases, even more), and more often as not your
military will not take notice.
