Waving something (past tense waved): applying to one thing
Waving in this sense is like waving a sceptre: the item to be waved must be directly held (or worn) by the actor.
In the Standard Rules there are no carry out rules for this action because nothing in the standard Inform world model which reacts to it. The action is provided for authors to hang more interesting behaviour onto for special cases: say, waving a particular rusty iron rod with a star on the end.
