+Usage: jsave [slot] [user_name] [gamenumber]
+
+ This command is used to save games to your journal (see the "journal" help
+file). You can save games from a "history" file or from another journal.
+
+To save from a "history" file
+-----------------------------
+
+ The general format is: jsave slot user_name game_number. For example:
+
+ jsave A Friar 3
+
+ where 'A' is your journal slot; 'Friar' is the handle of the player whose
+ game you want to save -- whether it is your handle or the handle of another
+ player; and '3' is the number of the game from that player's 'history' file.
+
+To save from another journal
+----------------------------
+
+ The general format is: jsave slot user_name slot. For example:
+
+ jsave B Rattlesnake A
+
+ where 'B' is your journal slot, 'Rattlesnake' is the handle of the player
+ whose journal game you want to transfer to your journal; 'A' is that
+ player's journal slot for that game.
+
+Using this journal-transfer feature, you can also relabel your own journal
+entries. For example:
+
+ jsave A your_handle D
+
+will take the journal game in slot 'D' and copy it to journal slot 'A'. At
+the moment, it is not possible to delete a slot (except by overwritting); that
+capability will be added in the future.
