+"it provides a way to use add_item without coding. I "
+"will try to explain it. *sigh* You can change the pattern and "
+"name of the verb construct seperately. And you can add items to "
+"this room. The 'add an object named XXXX' command creates an "
+"object with the name XXXX useing the current verb and pattern. "
+"Once you have added the item, you can look at it, and use the "
+"defined verb on it. The verb will spit out all of the "
+"arguments to the function, like room 12. In this way you can "
+"test verb patterns - since many of them don't work - without "
+"any coding. It should help you get an idea how it all works. "
