@DESCRIBE redescer=%b %b %b This object stores descriptions and allows you to "wear" a list of them. It's secondary function is to teach MUSHcode. You can copy the basic commands here to your object and modify them as you wish. Feel free to ask me for help.%r%rPlease @create an object with the name of your choice.

&HELP2 redescer=$redhelp2:@pemit %#=The "desc-name" is the name of the desc in the redescer.%rExample: <store first>%b , will store your @desc as FIRST.%r%rYou can edit the desc by typing:%r<@edit chest/<desc-name>=\{old\},\{new\}> %b (See < help @edit > ).%r%rThe first desc might be a general description of your character, the second a description of what you are wearing, the third could be your current mood... but you could put the mood first, just by changing the order of the desc-names in the command.%rYou might want to make an @desc of smaller parts, say, a list like: %rHAIR3 GEN1 DRS_BLUE SMILE%rthen store this combined desc as "STD1", so you could 'wear' it easily.%r"STD2" might be:%rHAIR3 GEN1 DRS_BLUE FROWN%rso, if you're caught in the rain wearing STD1, you could quickly type:%rwear STD2 UMBRELLA[space(6)](Assuming you have an "umbrella" desc! :)
