Verb:INSPECT
INSPECT is a verb that has several different uses. It gives more information about a particular item, typically where it is worn, how much if anything it holds, where it would protect, and if it has a purpose.
Items that resist inspection often have scripts on them. Inspecting an item that you have REGISTERed will display the last time that the item was registered.

Container Size Categories
Each descriptive category represents a capacity range, measured in pounds. The Off-The-Shelf item values shown within ( ) are the accurate maximum capacities for those particular items when purchased. Other containers within the same descriptive category may have different maximum capacities. For example, the rucksacks sold in the Wehnimer's Landing general store inspect as 'slightly large' and player testing has shown that the maximum capacity is 40 lbs. The rucksacks weigh 4 lbs when empty, therefore, their total weight when filled to maximum capacity is 44 lbs.
The min/max values for each category are somewhat speculative and further player testing is needed to refine these ranges.
