14 | _\bM_\bo_\bn_\bo_\bp is reminiscent of the Parker Brother's game | |
15 | Monopoly, and monitors a game between 1 to 9 users. It is | |
16 | assumed that the rules of Monopoly are known. The game | |
17 | follows the standard rules, with the exception that, if a | |
18 | property goes up for auction and there are only two sol- | |
19 | vent players, no auction is held and the property remains | |
20 | unowned. | |
21 | ||
22 | The game, in effect, lends the player money, so it is pos- | |
23 | sible to buy something which you cannot afford. However, | |
24 | as soon as a person goes into debt, he must "fix the prob- | |
25 | lem", _\bi_\b._\be_\b., make himself solvent, before play can con- | |
26 | tinue. If this is not possible, the player's property | |
27 | reverts to his debtee, either a player or the bank. A | |
28 | player can resign at any time to any person or the bank, | |
29 | which puts the property back on the board, unowned. | |
30 | ||
31 | Any time that the response to a question is a _\bs_\bt_\br_\bi_\bn_\bg, | |
32 | e.g., a name, place or person, you can type `?' to get a | |
33 | list of valid answers. It is not possible to input a neg- | |
34 | ative number, nor is it ever necessary. | |

37 | _\bq_\bu_\bi_\bt: quit game: This allows you to quit the game. It | |
38 | asks you if you're sure. | |
39 | _\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt: print board: This prints out the current board. | |
40 | The columns have the following meanings (column | |
41 | headings are the same for the w\bwh\bhe\ber\bre\be, o\bow\bwn\bn h\bho\bol\bld\bd-\b- | |
42 | i\bin\bng\bgs\bs, and h\bho\bol\bld\bdi\bin\bng\bgs\bs commands): | |
43 | Name The first ten characters of the name of | |
44 | the square | |
45 | Own The _\bn_\bu_\bm_\bb_\be_\br of the owner of the property. | |
46 | Price The cost of the property (if any) | |
47 | Mg This field has a `*' in it if the property | |
48 | is mortgaged | |
49 | # If the property is a Utility or Railroad, | |
50 | this is the number of such owned by the | |
51 | owner. If the property is land, this is | |
52 | the number of houses on it. | |
53 | Rent Current rent on the property. If it is | |
54 | not owned, there is no rent. | |
55 | _\bw_\bh_\be_\br_\be: where players are: Tells you where all the play- | |
56 | ers are. A `*' indicates the current player. | |

73 | _\bo_\bw_\bn _\bh_\bo_\bl_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs: | |
74 | List your own holdings, _\bi_\b._\be_\b., money, get-out-of- | |
75 | jail-free cards, and property. | |
76 | _\bh_\bo_\bl_\bd_\bi_\bn_\bg_\bs: holdings list: Look at anyone's holdings. It | |
77 | will ask you whose holdings you wish to look at. | |
78 | When you are finished, type "done". | |
79 | _\bm_\bo_\br_\bt_\bg_\ba_\bg_\be: mortgage property: Sets up a list of mortgage- | |
80 | able property, and asks which you wish to mort- | |
81 | gage. | |
82 | _\bu_\bn_\bm_\bo_\br_\bt_\bg_\ba_\bg_\be: | |
83 | unmortgage property: Unmortgage mortgaged prop- | |
84 | erty. | |
85 | _\bb_\bu_\by: buy houses: Sets up a list of monopolies on | |
86 | which you can buy houses. If there is more than | |
87 | one, it asks you which you want to buy for. It | |
88 | then asks you how many for each piece of prop- | |
89 | erty, giving the current amount in parentheses | |
90 | after the property name. If you build in an | |
91 | unbalanced manner (a disparity of more than one | |
92 | house within the same monopoly), it asks you to | |
93 | re-input things. | |
94 | _\bs_\be_\bl_\bl: sell houses: Sets up a list of monopolies from | |
95 | which you can sell houses. It operates in an | |
96 | analogous manner to _\bb_\bu_\by_\b. | |
97 | _\bc_\ba_\br_\bd: card for jail: Use a get-out-of-jail-free card | |
98 | to get out of jail. If you're not in jail, or | |
99 | you don't have one, it tells you so. | |
100 | _\bp_\ba_\by: pay for jail: Pay $50 to get out of jail, from | |
101 | whence you are put on Just Visiting. Difficult | |
102 | to do if you're not there. | |
103 | _\bt_\br_\ba_\bd_\be: This allows you to trade with another player. | |
104 | It asks you whom you wish to trade with, and | |
105 | then asks you what each wishes to give up. You | |
106 | can get a summary at the end, and, in all cases, | |
107 | it asks for confirmation of the trade before | |
108 | doing it. | |
109 | _\br_\be_\bs_\bi_\bg_\bn: Resign to another player or the bank. If you | |
110 | resign to the bank, all property reverts to its | |
111 | virgin state, and get-out-of-jail free cards | |
112 | revert to the deck. | |
113 | _\bs_\ba_\bv_\be: save game: Save the current game in a file for | |
114 | later play. You can continue play after saving, | |
115 | either by adding the file in which you saved the | |
116 | game after the _\bm_\bo_\bn_\bo_\bp command, or by using the | |
117 | _\br_\be_\bs_\bt_\bo_\br_\be command (see below). It will ask you | |
118 | which file you wish to save it in, and, if the | |
119 | file exists, confirm that you wish to overwrite | |
120 | it. | |
121 | _\br_\be_\bs_\bt_\bo_\br_\be: restore game: Read in a previously saved game | |
122 | from a file. It leaves the file intact. | |
123 | _\br_\bo_\bl_\bl: Roll the dice and move forward to your new | |
