@DESCFORMAT

COMMAND: @descformat <object> [=<format>]

Normally, the description of an object is controlled by the content and formatting found in the DESCRIBE attribute. With the WOD_REALMS package enabled, DESCRIBE can be substituted in favor of other attributes.

However, in all cases, @descformat provides one final pass over the appearance of an object. The evaluated description text is passed as %0, and the attribute name where this text can be found is passed as %1. The unevaluated description can be acquired using v(%1).

This is useful to achieve a consistent 'look' using room parents.
