The watch command

    Syntax:  watch name

    watch name can be used to watch the game name plays. You'll be informed about all rolls, moves and doubles in that game. If your autoboard toggle is YES you'll also see the board after each move. The board will be shown from name's point of view. You can't watch if you're playing yourself and you can't watch more than one player at the same time.

    Use the unwatch command if you don't want to watch name anymore. While watching you can use the kibitz and whisper commands to talk to players and other watchers.

    Note: In MacFIBS, you can select a player in the Player window and then choose Watch <player> from the Player menu (or from the contextual pop-up menu if you control-click the player). You can also drag the player to the board window to watch his or her match.
