Verb:RUMMAGE

RUMMAGE will search through a container (e.g. a backpack) for a specific item and removes it from that container (one must have an empty hand). One does not have to be wearing the container, which can be any wearable container or furniture with capacity (e.g. town benches). Use INSPECT (verb) to check furniture for holding capacity.
