Check Command
The check command is used to check various pieces of information about the server, the world and the players in it. Some check commands can be used in any world by anybody, but others have restrictions.

Some check commands will give information about the block you are looking at, in these cases blocks like torches and flowers will be considered full size blocks so they might get in the way even if you can see behind them.

Block
/check block will give type, id, data value and coordinates of whatever block you are looking at. If you are looking at a sign it will also show the text on the sign, allowing you to read signs from a great distance.

Chunk
/check chunk will give you the chunk coordinates of the chunk you are currently in, as well as the region file the chunk is contained in.

Dir
/check dir will tell you the direction you are facing in compass, coordinate and yaw format.

Distance
/check dist [player] will allow you to check the distance between you and someone else in the same world. By default it cannot be used by noobs, cannot be used in survival worlds and cannot be used if the person is currently hidden from you.

Id
/check id will give you the id (and data value, if applicable) of whatever item is in your hand. You can also do /check id [itemname].
