You are looking at a command called point

point to|at|towards {object}

Allows you to point at an object in your current location.

point at the exit

or point towards the oak door

This makes it easy for people to see what you want them to examine or the doorway you want them to go through.

Remember: if you want to suggest an command, prefix the command with type: eg.


type: create a small mouse
click: think this is a facinating place

This is similar to read the command called gesture
