+
+Usage:

+    copybuilding
+        Copy building under cursor
+    copybuilding 1..9
+        Copy the last n building you copied
+
+Examples:
+
+    copybuilding
+        Copy the building under the cursor and start placing the same type
+    copybuilding 1
+        Re-copy the last building type you copied
