Look

 look [<object>]
 look <person>'s <object>
 look/outside

 Displays the description of <object>, or the room you're in if you don't 
 name a specific object.  You can specify object as <name> or #<dbref> or 
 'me' or 'here'. The second form of this command allows you to look at
 objects held by other people, if the person is not OPAQUE.
   
 Look can take one switch, "outside". look/outside allows you to
 look at objects outside your current location, as long as your
 immediate location is not a room, and is not OPAQUE.

 If you look at an object that is not set OPAQUE, you will see any non-DARK
 items in its inventory. You can look at DARK items in your location if 
 you know what their name is by typing 'look <object>', but they will
 not show up in the list of contents.

 When you type 'look' alone, you look at your current location. For a room,
 this normally shows you the room's description, the list of contents, and
 any obvious exits from the room. For an object, it only shows you the
 interior description (@idescribe).
 
 If a room is set DARK, when you look you will not see any of the exits
 or contents of the room, unless they are set LIGHT. 

 'look' may be abbreviated 'l'.
