                              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 costs $100 to
provide.

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
