Here is a description of the arguments to @verb:

victim - The object that is searched for attributes, and which runs the <awhat> attribute if it is found.

what - The name of the attribute containing the message to be delivered to the actor.

whatd - The message to deliver to the actor if the victim does not have a <what> attribute, or if it cannot be read.

owhat - The name of the attribute containing the message that is sent to everyone in the room with the actor. The message is prefixed by the actor's name unless no_name flag is present on the attribute.

owhatd - The message to deliver to others in the room with the actor if the victim does not have an <owhat> attribute, or it cannot be read. The message is prefixed by the actor's name unless /no_name switch is specified.
