NAME
  pick - pick a lock on a door or an item

SYNOPSIS
  pick <door name or direction>
  pick <object name>

DESCRIPTION
  Lock picking allows one to attempt to open a locked door or an
  item (such as a trunk) without having the key.

  Lock picking chances are improved by one's knowledge of the
  proficiency as well as one's luck, and hindered by the difficulty
  of the lock.

  To pick a lock, one must have a lock pick. Some magically-enhanced
  locks can surge and destroy normal lock picks, so it is always wise
  to have more than one on hand.

SEE ALSO
  lock, unlock, magic lock, magic unlock
