+1. WHEN YOU SEE \COMMAND ?\ PRINTED, ENTER ONE OF THE LEGAL
+     COMMANDS (NAV,SRS,LRS,PHA,TOR,SHE,DAM,COM, OR XXX).
+2. IF YOU SHOULD TYPE IN AN ILLEGAL COMMAND, YOU'LL GET A SHORT
+     LIST OF THE LEGAL COMMANDS PRINTED OUT.
+3. SOME COMMANDS REQUIRE YOU TO ENTER DATA (FOR EXAMPLE, THE
+     'NAV' COMMAND COMES BACK WITH 'COURSE (1-9) ?'.)  IF YOU
+     TYPE IN ILLEGAL DATA (LIKE NEGATIVE NUMBERS), THAN COMMAND
+     WILL BE ABORTED
+
+     THE GALAXY IS DIVIDED INTO AN 8 X 8 QUADRANT GRID,
+AND EACH QUADRANT IS FURTHER DIVIDED INTO AN 8 X 8 SECTOR GRID.
+
+     YOU WILL BE ASSIGNED A STARTING POINT SOMEWHERE IN THE
+GALAXY TO BEGIN A TOUR OF DUTY AS COMANDER OF THE STARSHIP
+\ENTERPRISE\; YOUR MISSION: TO SEEK AND DESTROY THE FLEET OF
+KLINGON WARWHIPS WHICH ARE MENACING THE UNITED FEDERATION OF
+PLANETS.

+     YOU HAVE THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS AVAILABLE TO YOU AS CAPTAIN
+OF THE STARSHIP ENTERPRISE:
+
+\NAV\ COMMAND = WARP ENGINE CONTROL --
+     COURSE IS IN A CIRCULAR NUMERICAL      4  3  2
+     VECTOR ARRANGEMENT AS SHOWN             . . .
+     INTEGER AND REAL VALUES MAY BE           ...
+     USED.  (THUS COURSE 1.5 IS HALF-     5 ---*--- 1
+     WAY BETWEEN 1 AND 2                      ...

+     ONE WARP FACTOR IS THE SIZE OF 
+     ONE QUADTANT.  THEREFORE, TO GET
+     FROM QUADRANT 6,5 TO 5,5, YOU WOULD
+     USE COURSE 3, WARP FACTOR 1.
+
+\SRS\ COMMAND = SHORT RANGE SENSOR SCAN
+     SHOWS YOU A SCAN OF YOUR PRESENT QUADRANT.
+
+     SYMBOLOGY ON YOUR SENSOR SCREEN IS AS FOLLOWS:
+        <*> = YOUR STARSHIP'S POSITION
+        +K+ = KLINGON BATTLE CRUISER
+        >!< = FEDERATION STARBASE (REFUEL/REPAIR/RE-ARM HERE!)
+         *  = STAR
+
+     A CONDENSED 'STATUS REPORT' WILL ALSO BE PRESENTED.
+
+\LRS\ COMMAND = LONG RANGE SENSOR SCAN
+     SHOWS CONDITIONS IN SPACE FOR ONE QUADRANT ON EACH SIDE
+     OF THE ENTERPRISE (WHICH IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCAN)
+     THE SCAN IS CODED IN THE FORM \###\, WHERE TH UNITS DIGIT
+     IS THE NUMBER OF STARS, THE TENS DIGIT IS THE NUMBER OF
+     STARBASES, AND THE HUNDRESDS DIGIT IS THE NUMBER OF
+     KLINGONS.
+
+     EXAMPLE - 207 = 2 KLINGONS, NO STARBASES, & 7 STARS.
+
+\PHA\ COMMAND = PHASER CONTROL.
+     ALLOWS YOU TO DESTROY THE KLINGON BATTLE CRUISERS BY

+     DEPLETE THEIR SHIELD POWER.  (REMEMBER, KLINGONS HAVE
+     PHASERS TOO!)
+
+\TOR\ COMMAND = PHOTON TORPEDO CONTROL
+     TORPEDO COURSE IS THE SAME AS USED IN WARP ENGINE CONTROL
