ICC Help: forward

Command: forward

Usage: forward <number>

The forward command is used when a player is in the "examine" mode. It shows the position in the game the specified number of half-moves ahead. If no number is given, the default is '1'. Also, just pressing the Enter key is equivalant to "forward 1". "forward 999" will get you to the end of the game.
