Pulling something (past tense pulled)

Pulling is the act of pulling something not grossly larger than the actor by an amount which would not substantially move it.

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, pulling a lever. ('The big red lever is a fixed in place device. Instead of pulling the big red lever, try switching on the lever. Instead of pushing the big red lever, try switching off the lever.')
