3.15 Personal Journals

Personal journals are magical books in which you may record whatever you like. They may also be purchased at many markets throughout the land.

Journals are designed for you to record your journeys in the land, keep notes in, compose poetry, and generally write whatever you please. A journal may only be written in by the owner of it, though it may be read by anyone.                                                              

Journals have 50 pages upon which to write. Each page can hold a limited (though still fairly large) amount of text.                             

Commands:

TITLE <journal> <title>     : Gives your journal a title.

BOOKMARK <journal> PAGE <#> : Place the journal's bookmark on whatever
                              page you wish. Doing so will cause the
                              READ and WRITE commands to operate on
                              that page, if no specific page number is
                              specified.

READ <journal> PAGE <#>     : Read page <whatever> in <journal>. If
                              you omit the PAGE <#>, then it will read, 
                              by default, the page that the bookmark 
                              is on.


WRITE <journal> PAGE <#>    : Write page <whatever> in <journal>. If
                              you omit the PAGE <whatever>, then it will
                              read, by default, the page that the
                              bookmark is on.

WRITE <journal> NOTE <note> : Write a quick note into your <journal>,
                              without going into the editor. You can
                              specify the page like above, just make
                              sure the NOTE <note> part is the last
                              part in the command.
