How do you make a verb that allows the user to type what he/she wants to the view, world, etc.?

mob/verb
     World_Say(T as text)
          world << "[src] says [T]"

To allow the messege to only be sent everyone in the players view do this:

mob/verb
     Say(T as text)
          view()<< "[src] says [T]"

Let me give you a commented example:
mob //a mob, check the dm reference to understand better.
 verb // your verb.
  say(msg as text) //the verb say, define text as "msg"
   switch(input("choose who to display this","choose") in list ("world","view"))
   //give the player an option to choose who to display this message.
    if("world")world<<"[src]: [msg]"//if he picked "world", send it to the world
    else view()<<"[src]: [msg]"//if not, send it to everyone in sight.
