Keywords are: 'afk away-from-keyboard' Syntax: afk [optional message] The 'afk' command lets the world know that you are not currently at your terminal, and will (hopefully) be back later. While afk, you will take roughly five times longer to time out than normal. You can add a trailing string with a brief explanation of why you are afk. Other players will see this message if they attempt to send you a tell. Afk mode is removed by typing any other command.
