let HelpTexts = {
alias: 'alias [-g] [name="value"]
' +
"Create or display aliases. An alias enables a replacement of a word with another string. " +
"It can be used to abbreviate a commonly used command, or commonly used parts of a command. The NAME " +
"of an alias defines the word that will be replaced, while the VALUE defines what it will be replaced by. For example, " +
"you could create the alias 'nuke' for the Terminal command 'run NUKE.exe' using the following:
" +
'alias nuke="run NUKE.exe"
' +
"Then, to run the NUKE.exe program you would just have to enter 'nuke' in Terminal rather than the full command. " +
"It is important to note that 'default' aliases will only be substituted for the first word of a Terminal command. For " +
"example, if the following alias was set:
" +
'alias worm="HTTPWorm.exe"
' +
"and then you tried to run the following terminal command:
" +
"run worm
" +
"This would fail because the worm alias is not the first word of a Terminal command. To allow an alias to be substituted " +
"anywhere in a Terminal command, rather than just the first word, you must set it to be a global alias using the -g flag:
" +
'alias -g worm="HTTPWorm.exe"
' +
"Now, the 'worm' alias will be substituted anytime it shows up as an individual word in a Terminal command.
" +
"Entering just the command 'alias' without any arguments prints the list of all defined aliases in the reusable form " +
"'alias NAME=VALUE' on the Terminal.
" +
"The 'unalias' command can be used to remove aliases.

"Purchase a program through the Dark Web. Requires a TOR router to use.
" +
"If this command is ran with the '-l' flag, it will display a list of all programs that can be bought through the " +

" +
"Otherwise, the name of the program must be passed in as a parameter. This is name is NOT case-sensitive.",
cat: "cat [file]
" +
"Display message files, which are files ending with the '.msg' extension, or a literature file, which " +
"are files ending with the '.lit' extension. Examples:

"cat foo.lit",
check: "check [script name] [args...]
" +
"Print the logs of the script specified by the script name and arguments to the Terminal. Each argument must be separated by " +
"a space. Remember that a running script is uniquely " +
"identified both by its name and the arguments that are used to start it. So, if a script was ran with the following arguments:
" +
"run foo.script 1 2 foodnstuff
" +
"Then to run the 'check' command on this script you would have to pass the same arguments in:
" +
"check foo.script 1 2 foodnstuff",
clear: "clear
" +
"Clear the Terminal screen, deleting all of the text. Note that this does not delete the user's command history, so using the up " +
"and down arrow keys is still valid. Also note that this is permanent and there is no way to undo this. Synonymous with 'cls' command",

",
help: "help [command]
" +
"Display Terminal help information. Without arguments, 'help' prints a list of all valid Terminal commands and a brief " +
"description of their functionality. You can also pass the name of a Terminal command as an argument to 'help' to print " +
"more detailed information about the Terminal command. Examples:
" +
"help alias
" +
"help scan-analyze",
home: "home
" +
"Connect to your home computer. This will work no matter what server you are currently connected to.",
hostname: "hostname

"Prints the IP address of the current server",
kill: "kill [script name] [args...]
" +
"Kill the script specified by the script name and arguments. Each argument must be separated by " +
"a space. Remember that a running script is uniquely identified by " +
"both its name and the arguments that are used to start it. So, if a script was ran with the following arguments:
" +
"run foo.script 1 sigma-cosmetics
" +
"Then to kill this script the same arguments would have to be used:
" +
"kill foo.script 1 sigma-cosmetics
" +
"Note that after issuing the 'kill' command for a script, it may take a while for the script to actually stop running. " +
"This will happen if the script is in the middle of a command such as grow() or weaken() that takes time to execute. " +
"The script will not be stopped/killed until after that time has elapsed.",
killall: "killall

"Kills all scripts on the current server. " +
"Note that after the 'kill' command is issued for a script, it may take a while for the script to actually stop running. " +
"This will happen if the script is in the middle of a command such as grow() or weaken() that takes time to execute. " +
"The script will not be stopped/killed until after that time has elapsed.",
ls: "ls [| grep pattern]
" +
"The ls command, with no arguments, prints all files on the current server to the Terminal screen. " +
"This includes all scripts, programs, and message files. " +
"The files will be displayed in alphabetical order.
" +
"The '| grep pattern' optional parameter can be used to only display files whose filenames match the specified pattern. " +
"For example, if you wanted to only display files with the .script extension, you could use:
" +
"ls | grep .script
" +
"Alternatively, if you wanted to display all files with the word purchase in the filename, you could use:
" +
"ls | grep purchase",
mem: "mem [script name] [-t] [num threads]
" +
"Displays the amount of RAM needed to run the specified script with a single thread. The command can also be used to print " +
"the amount of RAM needed to run a script with multiple threads using the '-t' flag. If the '-t' flag is specified, then " +
"an argument for the number of threads must be passed in afterwards. Examples:
" +
"mem foo.script
" +
"mem foo.script -t 50
" +
"The first example above will print the amount of RAM needed to run 'foo.script' with a single thread. The second example " +
"above will print the amount of RAM needed to run 'foo.script' with 50 threads.",
nano: "nano [script name]

"WARNING: This is permanent and cannot be undone",
run: "run [file name] [-t] [num threads] [args...]
" +
"Execute a program or a script.
" +
"The '[-t]', '[num threads]', and '[args...]' arguments are only valid when running a script. The '-t' flag is used " +
"to indicate that the script should be run with the specified number of threads. If the flag is omitted, " +
"then the script will be run with a single thread by default. " +
"If the '-t' flag is used, then it MUST come immediately " +
"after the script name, and the [num threads] argument MUST come immediately afterwards.

"Prints detailed information about all servers up to [depth] nodes away on the network. Calling " +
"'scan-analyze 1' will display information for the same servers that are shown by the 'scan' Terminal " +
"command. This command also shows the relative paths to reach each server.
" +
"By default, the maximum depth that can be specified for 'scan-analyze' is 3. However, once you have " +
"the DeepscanV1.exe and DeepscanV2.exe programs, you can execute 'scan-analyze' with a depth up to " +
"5 and 10, respectively.

"Prints whether or not you have root access to the current machine",
tail: "tail [script name] [args...]
" +
"Displays dynamic logs for the script specified by the script name and arguments. Each argument must be separated " +
"by a space. Remember that a running script is uniquely identified by both its name and the arguments that were used " +
"to run it. So, if a script was ran with the following arguments:
" +
"run foo.script 10 50000

"tail foo.script 10 50000",
theme: "theme [preset] | [#background #text #highlight]

"Change the color of the game's user interface
" +
"This command can be called with a preset theme. Currently, the supported presets are 'default', 'muted', and 'solarized'. " +
"However, you can also specify your own color scheme using hex values. To do so, you must specify three hex color values " +
"for the background color, the text color, and the highlight color. These hex values must be preceded by a pound sign (#) and " +
"must be either 3 or 6 digits. Example:
" +
"theme #ffffff #385 #235012
" +
"A color picker such as " +
"Google's " +
"can be used to get your desired hex color values
" +
"Themes are not saved, so when the game is closed and then re-opened or reloaded then it will revert back to the default theme.",
