Looking at this, if the user isn't in expert mode, wouldn't it print

```
Unrecognized command
Or type ;help for more commands
```

I would have thought it'd be a multiline if statement but it's not indented as such.
I'm trying to figure out what is correct so I can incorporate it into my modded version.

Yeah, I should remove the work "Or" there.

OK, that would make sense. Thanks for the clarification.
