Normal action commands are specified by the command name followed by parentheses which contain the arguments, separated by commas. A semicolon is placed after the parentheses. The parentheses are required even if there are no arguments. The arguments given must have the correct prefix for that type of argument as explained later in this document (this is to make sure the programmer does not use a [[AGIWiki/Variable|variable]], for example, when they think they are using a [[AGIWiki/Flag|flag]]). | Normal action commands are specified by the command name followed by parentheses which contain the arguments, separated by commas.

Compilers can enforce type checking, so that the programmer must use the correct prefix for an argument so that they know they are using the right type.

Quote marks must be used around messages and inventory item names. This is important because some messages or inventory item names may contain parentheses or commas, which could confuse the compiler.
