Hmm. PennMUSH code has a think command. You type something like think (whatever) and it broadcasts whatever that is to yourself.

Beyond that ... I'm not sure what you're talking about. If you mean a command that allows you to display your inner thoughts through RP - we use : or pose, which can then include actions and dialogue - although we frown on "inner dialogue" as a sort of powergaming, because it should be apparent through your actions what you might be thinking - or what you might be trying to conceal.

For example, if you type :looks at Player B up and down and thinks they are a total moron, but says aloud, "You're a nice guy," well, that'd be unfair to the other player. Much better to type something like

:looks Player B up and down with a derisive sneer and growls, "You're a nice guy." Then the sarcasm is evident.

I may be totally off track on what you're asking, though, so feel free to clarify.
