The "What?" reply

When typing in a wrong command, sometimes the What? message appears. For example, <mount> and What? but <mount horse> works.
Changing What? to hints can make typing easier when trying to find the right way to do something, like a quest.
If -mount what? is shown when you type <mount> then figuring things out would be easier.

Or make a page somewhere showing all the possible commands in Genesis in alphabetical order so desperate people can search there.

With such things as mounts, this would be a good thing, since the command "mount" is in environment of the player, but you need to "mount horse" to get a response...
Flee you fools!

I've applied some fixes to steeds which will become active after armageddon.
Not setting failure messages is usually a bug so please bug report any steeds which don't.
