{{Keyboard Commands}}
The [[colon]], {{kbd|:}}, is the [[near look]] [[commands|command]]. It is used to look at the square you are currently standing on. Unlike the [[far look]] command, you will get an accurate description of any dungeon features, traps, and objects on the square. Using this command takes no in-game time.

This command is mainly useful for viewing information about the current square when there are a lot of objects or you have forgotten what is on the square, and you don't want to take turns moving off and back on.

If you are [[blind]], you will determine what objects are on the square by feeling around on the ground, the same as when you move onto a square containing objects. [[Cockatrice#Without_wearing_gloves.2C_blinded|This can cause YASD]] if there happens to be a [[cockatrice corpse]] on the square and you are not wearing [[gloves]], so be careful.
