On looking for a way to customize bits and bobs, I have had a look at this.

There is a "list" bit for individual objects, allowing you to put "you peer into the bag and see #objects#" etc, instead of the default "It contains #objects#"..

But is there a global override for this?
I don't really feel like going around every container object and doing this.

... Although types seem like a very nice compromise for this - and that JUST came to me.
.. OK, forget that I can't do it - but any other idea's?

Create an Object Type called "default" and add a property "list" to it containing the text you want.

That will apply the "list" property to every object in the game. If you only want it to apply to a few objects, give the Type a different name and manually include it in the relevant objects.

ooo, the 'default' type is very handy to know...

I should really read the whole helpfile..
