                                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.
