Alter Aeon FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

FAQ 21.2 - What are the conventions for room strings?

The 'short' description is the title of the room, the first thing you see
when you walk in.  The first word in the short description is capitalized,
and the short description has NO trailing punctuation as it is usually
a sentence fragment.  For example:

Before an ancient doorway
Inside Ralnoth Central Bank
Before a large glowing pentacle

Room long descriptions typically are not indented, and are composed of
(multiple) complete sentences.  They range from 3 to ten lines long
after formatting.  More than occasional copying of room descriptions
is heavily frowned upon.
