	==== echo() ====		==== echo() ====
	The echo() function will, on the serverside, send data to NC, so RC users who have the NPC-Control right will see the message in RC chat, and on the clientside, sends the message to the F2 window. It expects one parameter, and that's the message you're sending. For example:		The echo() function will, on the serverside, send data to NC (by default), so RC users who have the NPC-Control right will see the message in RC chat, and on the clientside, sends the message to the F2 window. It expects one parameter, and that's the message you're sending. For example:
	<pre>echo("This is a message!");</pre>		<pre>echo("This is a message!");</pre>
	The message "This is a message!" will appear either in RC or the F2 window using this example.		The message "This is a message!" will appear either in RC or the F2 window using this example.

			Servers can change the [[Server_options#Send_NPC_output_to_RCs\|sendechotorc]] server option to allow echo() messages to be sent to everyone on RC.
