@describe

• @describe <object> [=<description>]

This command sets the description of the object, which will be seen whenever something looks at the object with the command 'look <object>'. Every object should have a description, even if just a short one describing its purpose. If the [=<description>] is left out, the desc. on the object will be reset to nothing. When you look at something that has no desc., you are told, "You see nothing special."

@describe can be abbreviated as @desc
