                                Command : SELL

 SYNTAX:
   [##:##] Command: sell <COMMODITY> <SECTS> <AMOUNT> <PRICE>

The sell command allows nations to sell commodities on the open  market.   Not
all  commodities  can  be  traded  --  notably civilians and military.  Prices
depend on the price multiplier set by the selling nation with respect  to  the
buying nation, and the price set at the time of sale.

The <COMMODITY> is the type of commodity you are selling,  <SECTS>  represents
the  range  of  sectors  which will be selling items.  If negative, the amount
reflects the amount of food to be taken from each sector.   If  positive,  the
amount shows the lower limit of food required to be present in that sector and
will only sell food in excess of that limit.  Price is the base price  of  the
commodity to the world, modified by the individual nation multipliers.

Typical output looks like:

Any sector can sell commodities.  There  is  a  certain  overhead  on  selling
items, based on the difficulty of moving the items in question.
