Forgive me because I'm slow, but what is the question you're
asking? What this says to me is that if an object is of type
ITEM_CONTAINER, and the action_description is set, and the 3'd value is
less than 0 (probably -1), and on a 1-in-6 chance, to display the action
description for the object to the character.
I'll assume that this is in some sort of "Look at object" or "look
at room" line, but I guess that would be hard to say in this case, since
its a different code base.
