NAME
  [2] telegram -- send messages to other players
 
SYNTAX
      telegram [Playername | Playernumber | place]

DESCRIPTION
  
  This command allows users to communicate with each other.  The player
must specify who/what they wish to contact, and a message to send to
that player.  To specify a place instead of a single player, the string
must begin with one of the following characters: / : . #  If the string
is specified in this way, all players that currently occupy the area 
specified will be sent the telegram.  If the area is a ship, only the owner
of that ship will be the recipient.

  Note that the transmission will identify your location to them, so it is
expedient to choose carefully whom you send messages to.

  Note also that with first contact between any two races utterly alien to
each other, there is likely to be communication difficulties between the
two at first.  The receiving player will have to use valuable resources and
equipment to translate your message.
