Press [w] to wield a weapon. To attack a monster in melee, try to move into its square. To use a ranged weapon, wield the launcher if applicable, then [t]hrow or [f]ire the ammunition (after placing the ammunition in your [q]uiver). It is not necessary to wield a thrown weapon, such as a dagger or darts, unless you're trying to throw Mjollnir.

Wielding an item, of course, requires touching it, so be sure to wear gloves before wielding something you don't want to touch.
