Equivalent to "whisper message\n". I also send tellics message, but only for commands. Who sees tellics messages? On fics, I see my own whispers (tellother) in the xboard console, but do not see them when on icc. The second question was about what is the required mode of whispering/kibitzing for CCT4. I recall seeing a lot of discussion some weeks ago about mitigating cheating, including talk about displaying search information during the games. Frank
