Measurements
Lacking any real standard measurements in this world, the most common
methods for measuring things are by comparison to common objects.
Resultantly, weights and measures tend to be highly inaccurate.
One Toe - 10 Toes in one Foot (end to end).
One Foot - The Foot is the most common distance measure. It is the
length of an average human foot - humans being about
average in size of all the races.
One Finger - Another commonly used measure, it is the length of
an average human forefinger. Roughly a third of a
foot.
One Stride - The stride is the length of an average human stride,
but for standards sake, it is thought of as 3 Feet,
end to end.
One League - A league is 5000 strides.
One Egg - Being that Chicken eggs are just about everywhere and tend
to be about the same shape and size, it has often been used
as a weight comparison.
One Stone - Unlike the Real World (tm) stone, one stone on Terrinor
generally refers to a small pebble. Roughly 10 stones
make up one egg.
Weigh
Syntax:
weigh [object]
The weigh command allows you to estimate the weight of an object
held in hand. The estimate is given in Terrinor eggs and stones.
