"----------General Instructions----------" +
" " +
" Teleports are usually addressed by " +
"the streets or intersections at which " +
"the booths are placed. " +
" " +
" A booth at the mid-point of a " +
"residential street will generally be " +
"named after that street, while booths at" +
"the ends of streets are usually named by" +
"the street name and together with the " +
"direction from the mid-point to that " +
"end. For example, the teleport at the " +
"center of Baker St. is \"Baker St\", while" +
" " +
" -- Page 2 of 11 -- ",
"---- General Instructions continued ----" +
" " +
"the 'ports at either end of this street " +
"are \"Baker St East\" and \"Baker St West\" " +
"respectively. Streets that run " +
"north-south would have correspondingly " +
"named booths at their ends. " +
" " +
" Teleport addresses also contain " +
"area codes that indicate the city or " +
"zone in which the booths reside. The " +
"area code is separated from the rest of " +
"the address by a \"-\" character. The " +
"area code for Populopolis is \"Pop\", so " +
" " +
" -- Page 3 of 11 -- ",
"---- General Instructions continued ----" +
" " +
"the full name of the Baker St. teleport," +
"for example, is \"Pop-Baker St\". " +
"However, you do not need to type the " +
"area code yourself unless you are making" +
"a long-distance 'port to another city " +
"(that is, to a destination that has a " +
"different area code from the booth from " +
"which you are departing). " +
" " +

"------Teleport Booth Instructions-------" +
" " +
" Habitat Teleport booths are coin " +
"operated. It costs $10 to make a local " +
"'port. A long distance 'port costs more" +
"(the exact price depends on how far you " +
"are travelling). " +
" " +
" To use a teleport booth, you must " +
"first ACTIVATE it by putting money into " +
"it. Hold a token of denomination $10 or" +
"more in your hand, point at the booth " +
"with your cursor, and choose the PUT " +
"command. The booth will indicate that " +
" " +
" -- Page 5 of 11 -- ",
"--Teleport Booth Instructions continued-" +
" " +
"it is active by flashing the lightning- " +
"bolt logo painted on its side. " +
" " +
" Once the booth is activated, simply" +
"point at the booth with your cursor and " +
"then type the teleport address of your " +
"desired destination (followed by a " +
"RETURN). If for some reason the " +
"teleport system cannot take you where " +
"you wish to go (the most common reason " +
"is a typo in the address), it will " +
"display a message telling you what the " +
" " +
" -- Page 6 of 11 -- ",
"--Teleport Booth Instructions continued-" +
" " +
"problem is. If such a problem occurs, " +
"the booth will remain active and you can" +
"try again with a different address. " +
