From draconisPW#20 I found out about beautiful feature:
"l" + "p" + "r"

This is really great feature - because it could make dream come true - http://tangar.info/en/blog/roguelike-mud

The only tiny problem - when I push "l" + "p" - I could move cursor around. but when I push "r" - cursor dissapear so to continue looking around player has to push ("l" + "p" + "r") again. It would be so awesome if it would be possible to look around while in 'r'-mode continuosly, so cursor won't go away. Then player could look around and relax reading descriptions, getting into game lore.. it's hard to push 'l+p+r' again and again to look at every feature :(

Also it would be fun to give 'r' window maximum weight so it would be possible to write really nice descriptions.

===

Another use of l+p+r - FINALLY it would be possible to create proper in-game turorial!!! (if this feature would be enhanced ;) ).. so players would start in location with stuff which they could look at to read introducial tutorial and come from one room to another...

==

PW: Pressing "l" + "p" stays on server side. Pressing "r" goes back to client to display the description, so you need another command after that. In current state, this is impossible to do.

T: Hm.. is it possible to show this tooltip in a new window? So user will switch between objects like in regular "l"ook, but he will see long descriptions in a new window (message window?)
