It was originaly called 'converse', it might have been changed by your
admins. Most lp's have added converse <name> as an addition so you can do
tells as well. All Discworld libs allow 'repeat <command>' which allows
you to repeat any command you wish with the bits you type in added. I am
not sure how often the command it used though, I would tend to say that it
is fairly infrequent.
May your days be nice and fluffy,
David.
