The term spread can mean different things. It is four calls in this program.
Use the call `spread' after calls such as follow your neighbor, or from the starting double pass thru (or similar setup) that is obtained after calls like wheel and deal or a sequence started with heads star thru.
There is also a call `<anything> and spread', which simply does the <anything> followed by a spread, to make the printout look nicer by having the calls appear on the same line. It is intended for things like `[follow your neighbor] and spread'. You must type the <anything> call in square brackets. Do not use this with something like heads star thru. That is, do not enter:
heads start [star thru] and spread
That would attempt to have only the heads do both the star thru and the spread. All 8 people must do the spread. You must enter:
heads start star thru spread
and get the calls on separate lines
There is also a call `<ANYONE> spread'. It is typically used from columns, to get the designated people to slide away from their partner into a butterfly, "O", or whatever. It can also be used to get selected people (who must be adjacent) to do a `follow your neighbor' type of spread.
There is also a call `<anything> and the <anyone> spread', which combines the previous two calls. It does the <anything> followed by having the selected people spread. For example, you could enter
[motivate] and the boys spread
(There is also the call `wheel and spread', which is just the special case call on the Plus list.)
