Dusty Room
You are in a dusty old room which is featureless, except for an exit on the
north side.
Imbedded in the far wall is a rusty box. It appears to be somewhat damaged,
since an oblong hole has been chipped out of the front of it.
The hole contains:

>LOOK IN HOLE
You can't look inside a hole.
It is perhaps notable that SLOT has a holding capacity, but it does not have CONTBIT. Perhaps to prevent the player from opening or closing the hole?
SLOT-F only handles "LOOK-INSIDE" when the hole is empty:
<COND (<AND <VERB? LOOK-INSIDE> <NOT <FIRST? ,SLOT>>>
<TELL "There's nothing in the hole." CR>)
That can be fixed, of course, but is it the right way forward?
