use by non-operators (regular players). Only operators should be

which the player can supply (It's useful to supply an array so that
|
||||
Tab-Completion works for the `/jsp ` commands.
|
||||
* intercepts (boolean - optional) : Indicates whether this command

can intercept Tab-Completion of the `/jsp ` command - advanced

usage - see alias/alias.js for example.
