The ']' command prefix allows players to inhibit the normal round of eval-
uation that occurs when you enter a command. For example, normally when
you type
+com code=What does %# do again?
you and others will see
Froob says, "What does #12345 do again?"
because the %# gets evaluated and expanded into your dbref. But instead, if
you type
]+com code=What does %# do again?
you will get what you probably wanted:
<Code> Froob says, "What does %# do again?"
The ] command prefix works with all commands including $commands that you
code on objects yourself.
