[CF-Devel] client issues

      There are many others which are pretty self documenting (direction commands, or

      The biggest issue might be that the 'help commands' shows all these other

So what we should have:

'help commands:
      Commands:
 apply brace cast disarm dm drop
 dropall east examine fire fire_stop fix_me get gsay help
 hiscore inventory invoke listen
 mapinfo maps mark motd north
 northeast northwest output-count
 output-sync party peaceful pickup players
 prepare quit ready_skill resistances
 rotateshoottype rotatespells run run_stop save say
 search search-items shout shutdown skills
 sound south southeast southwest
 statistics stay take tell throw
 title use_skill usekeys version west
 who wimpy

      Debugging commands:
 archs logs malloc sstable strings time verify

If this is dynamically generated from Commands[] in commands.c, then it's
leaving out NewServerCommands[].

Also:
No help availble on 'brace'
No help availble on 'disarm'
No help availble on 'dm'
No help availble on 'drop'
No help availble on 'dropall'
...

It should be easy enough to add a brief message for each command.
