• --help : This will show a list of the available options.
• --system=x : This option will restrict your search to a specific game system. Replace x with the name of the system. Generally, most systems are matched by short names such as "jag" or "3do". For example, "!dp --system=snes Mario" will search for all Super Nintendo games with "Mario" in their name. For a list of available systems, try "!dp --system=list".
• --sort=rare : This will sort the output in order to show the rarest games first.
• --sort=common : This will sort the output to show the LEAST rare games first.
• --sort=expensive : This will sort the output to show the most expensive games first (This is not necessarily the same as the rarest games).
• --sort=cheap : This will sort the output to show the cheapest games first.
• --hardware : This will search hardware instead of games.
• --foreign : Show only foreign games.
• --homebrew : Show only homebrew games.
• --proto : Show only prototype games.
• --rumor : Show only games from the "Rumor Mill" sections of the Guide.
• --cdonly : Show CD games only (This only makes sense for Jaguar, TurboGrafx-16, and NeoGeo. If you're looking for SegaCD games, use "--system=segacd" instead.)
• --demos : Show only demos
• --coinop : Show only games marked as coin-op conversions
• --landmark : Show only games marked as being landmark games (Usually, these are launch titles or games that were otherwise important for some reason)
• --good : Show only games marked as being good (In the paper version of the guide, these titles have a + next to them).
• --all : Remove all filters and show ALL results (Note that there are some filters that are enabled by default in order to remove less useful search results. Using --all will often not get you what you want).
• It should also be noted that if you leave out the name of a game to search for, the script will just look for ALL games. This may not sound useful, but the examples below will show how this can actually be used to your advantage.

• !dp Legend of Zelda (Searches for anything with "Legend of Zelda" in the title. This is the most common usage of this command)
• !dp --system=saturn --good (Searches for all games that were marked as being good)
• !dp --system=neogeo --sort=cheap (Shows the five least expensive NeoGeo games)
• !dp --sort=rare Mario (Shows the five rarest titles with "Mario" in their name)
• !dp --foreign --system=dc Rez (Shows all Dreamcast games with "Rez" in their name which were released outside of North America. Since Rez was not released in North America, it would not be shown if the --foreign option was not added)

• The search value is not case sensitive, but spacing and hyphenation can often cause problems... for example, searching for "Megaman" or "Mega-Man" will both fail, as the Guide calls the game "Mega Man". There are other games that can cause similar problems.
• Since this script generates a lot of output, it's considered somewhat poor manners to use it while conversations are going on.
• This script is primarily meant as a quick way to find the rarity of a game. If you are "just browsing", please use the web based search on Digital Press instead, as there are more options there, and you won't be flooding the channel.
• This script accesses the Digital Press web site in order to get all it's data... if the Digital Press website is down for any reason, this script will produce an error message.

• !games xbox (Shows the next 10 Xbox games that are scheduled to be released)
• !games PC (Shows the next 10 PC games that are scheduled to be released)

• !review Bullet Witch (Show review scores for Bullet Witch)
• !review --system=pc elder scrolls (Shows review scores for any PC game with "elder scrolls" in it's name)

• !gamertag Abstract Zero (This will show you my current gamer score, last game played, etc)

Viewing Definitions

• Description: This will print a definition that has been added to the database.
• Syntax: ?? word
• Options: Replace word with the word you want a definition of. Note that it HAS to be a single word, as the script is not capable of handling phrases! However, there are a few instances where definitions have been added with underscores instead of spaces (see the examples).
• Examples:
  • ?? genesis (Shows the definition for "genesis".)
  • ?? blast_processing (Shows the definition for "blast_processing", note the use of an underscore rather than a space. If a space was used, it would have looked for a definition for "blast" instead, and likely just fail.)
• Notes: I have added definitions for most common (and many uncommon) video gaming related terms, so if you hear something you're unsure of, try this and you may be enlightened.

Searching Definitions

• Description: This will search the database for a word or phrase. This can be very helpful if you're looking for a term, but can't find it.
• Syntax: ** query
• Options: Replace query with the word or phrase you want to find in the database.
• Examples:
  • ** sega (Lists all definitions that have the word "sega" in them)
• Notes: Unlike the rest of the commands in this section, this one DOES work properly even with spaces in the search term.

Editing Definitions

• Description: This command provides a number of ways of adding, removing, or editing definitions.
• Syntax: !learn action word definition
• Options: Replace action with either add (If you want to add a new definition), del (if you want to delete an existing definition), or rep (if you want to replace an existing definition). Replace word with the appropriate word, and definition with the desired definition (not required if using the del option).
• Examples:
  • !learn add Kamino Some really annoying guy. (Adds a definition for "Kamino" which reads "Some really annoying guy.")
  • !learn rep Kamino No, seriously, he's REALLY annoying sometimes! (Replaces the previous definition with a new one)
  • !learn del Kamino (Deletes the definition for "Kamino")
• Notes: Again, word has to be a single word! If you try to do something like "!learn add super nintendo This was the second console system made by Nintendo", then you will end up defining "super" rather than "super nintendo" as you probably wanted. If you HAVE to have a space in the name, I recommend using an underscore instead. EFnet has a limitation on the length of a single line on IRC, so if your definition is too long, it may end up being truncated. It's worth pointing out that you can add multiple definitions for things, but I don't recommend doing this as it makes deleting or replacing definitions somewhat more complicated. Lastly, please do not abuse the delete function, as some people have spent a good amount of time thinking up some of the definitions that are included in the database.
