Inventory (Item command)

inventory [all | <container> | all here [item]] [brief]

i

This command by itself (or if invoked by the shortcut 'i') will list all items on your immediate person. This includes any objects that you are wearing, wielding, holding or carrying. This 'simple' inventory will even be displayed if you cannot see and costs little time to complete even in combat. It will display your exact gold if you are not in combat, and give you a quick estimate of it if you are in combat.

If invoked with the 'all' argument, the command will display every item you carry that is not in a closed container. It will also count like items to reduce spam. Please note that sitting down in combat and doing a complete inventory of all your things tends to put you at a very distinct disadvantage. If you specify 'here', the command will instead display a concise list of everything on the ground. If 'all here <item>' is specified, then all items on the ground of that type will be listed.

Finally, the over-all encumbrance of your character is displayed. This allows you to have a rough idea of how much your character's actions may be affected by the weight you are carrying.

If invoked with a '<container>' argument, this command will list the contents of that container, and give you a rough estimate of how full it is. You may 'inventory' containers both on your person and on the ground.

Adding 'brief' at the end of the command syntax will filter out autoloading items that are not held in your hands and are not in a container. If you want the 'brief' mode to be always applied when you type 'i', use the alias command to 'alias inventory inventory brief', ignoring the warning of overriding a MUD command.
