Description Tony J. White 2006-04-17 11:28:35 EDT 
This patch adds two new server commands and removes the default behaviour of broadcasting all mistyped commands to all clients as a "say" message.

The new commands are "chat" and "cp".

For example:

chat tjw: hello everyone

Will "print" the message to all clients similar to the "say" command without the "server: " prefix.

cp ^1server restarting

Will center print the message to all clients.

Chat is quite usefull, but has remained undocumented. It doesnt even have a cmdlist entry.
