Synopsis
survey
Description
With the SURVEY command, the Adventurer scans the local
area for familiar landmarks to determine his current location. Surveying will tell you how far away a particular landmark is from your current location, and the general direction in which it lies.
Survey can be enhanced through the use of a telescope; when you are holding a telescope while using the SURVEY command you will be able to see twice as far as you normally can.
