Properties  

allowOnRespellOVERRIDDENparser.t[5614]

Accept spelling corrections that trigger an ambiguous noun error. If we find an ambiguous noun it means that we have valid overall verb syntax *and* we have noun phrases that match in-scope objects - in fact, they match too many objects. This is pretty good evidence that the respelling is valid.

cmdparser.t[5657]
the original Command that we were trying to resolve

curableOVERRIDDENparser.t[5621]
this is a curable error, since the player can fix the problem by answering the disambiguation question

nameListparser.t[5663]
The list of object names, with distinguisher information. This is the same information returned from Distinguisher.getNames().
