The Cold Dark further expands upon the above matching systems, specifying certain types of arguments which can be accepted for a command, where the wildcard ('*') is located. These are specified within less-than and greater-than signs (< and >). These tags simply tell the parser what type of arguments to accept in that location on the command line. An example would be:
push <user>
Where <user> must be a valid user of the system, some more examples follow.
"l?ook at <thing>" "get|take <any> from <thing>" "@who <user>" "@show <object>"
