Questions on In Scope for INFORM


29 Mar 1995 05:40:50 -0500

I started to study Balances.inf and play Balances to understand the code.
I wonder why we can examine cedarwood box after search the furnitire in
the hut? The box is an separate object defined under furniture( it does
not use Nearby), it is not in scope( from what I understand about Inform,
I may be wrong), why can it be examined? For the three rules of in scope,
it does not seem to fit any.

Thanks.
