@describe
@describe is a command to set the description of an object, which others see when they look at the object. Giving all your things, rooms, and exits good descriptions is considered to be good building practice.
Usage
Syntax: @describe object = description
Syntax: @desc object = description
Attribute: Desc
Function references and %-substitutions are allowed in descriptions, and are evaluated when someone looks at the object. In function references, ‘me’ refers to the object being looked at, while %-substitutions that refer to the enactor (such as %n, %#, %p, etc) refer to the looker.
Examples
@desc elevator = There is an elevator to the east.
