F1 to F7 send whatever you put on them.

                bind f1 attack        F1 now sends: attack
                bind f2 use sealant   a whole line, exactly as typed
                bind f3               clears F3
                binds                 lists them

            A key holds one command line and sends it as if you had typed it,
            so everything that would stop you typing it stops the key too.
            Click a button under the health bar to do the same thing. A key you
            have not bound is left to your browser, so an unbound F5 still
            reloads the page.

            The numeric keypad is a compass, and 5 looks.

                7 northwest   8 north   9 northeast
                4 west        5 look    6 east
                1 southwest   2 south   3 southeast
                + up          - down

            This works whether or not NumLock is on, and only while the input
            line is empty -- so a keypad digit typed into a half-written line is
            still a digit. To start a line with a number, use the number row
            along the top, which is never captured.

            Without a keypad, hold space and use the letters instead:

                space+q northwest   space+w north   space+e northeast
                space+a west        space+s look    space+d east
                space+z southwest   space+x south   space+c southeast

            Space only works this way at the start of an empty input line, so a
            space typed between words is still a space.

            The map pane has the same eight directions as buttons, lit when you
            can walk that way. Both send exactly what you would have typed, so
            neither does anything you could not do by hand.

            None of this is required. Every direction can be typed in full
            (`north`), abbreviated (`n`), and is always listed in the room's
            exits line.
