Home, Sweet Home
Press [a] for the Quick Reference.
Your home is a special building found in all the normal towns on the
surface (Outpost, Morivant, Telmora and Angwil). In your home, you may
stash goodies for future use. There are currently no limits on the
amount of objects you may store in your home, but if your house gets
too cluttered, then you may find it rather annoying to find what you
are looking for. So be sure to tidy up from time to time. Your home
inventory is actually only a single inventory. So while there are four
houses belonging to you, the contents of each is actually the same
(This unrealistic behavior is for smoother gameplay).
Using Your Home
When you first enter your home, you will see an empty inventory. To add
items to your home, simply drop them using the d command and select the
item you wish to drop. Similarly, to get items from your home, you use
the g command and then enter the label of the item you want. After a
bit of game play, your home might look like so:

Once there are more objects then can be displayed on your screen, the
inventory will be listed in pages. Use the Page Up and Page Down keys
to navigate.
If your home is too cluttered, then you will probably want to clean up
a bit. Now, you can certainly get items into your pack, walk outside,
and drop them on the town commons. This is littering. It is also a bit
of work. Sure, the townsfolk are poor and will eventually scavenge
through your trash (once you leave, of course), but there is a better
way to clean up, provided you realize that using this feature
permanently destroys the indicated objects. This feature is the r
command to remove items (permanently) from your home. Follow the
prompts. You will be asked to confirm each removal (deletion) and you
may not specify a quantity. Upon removal, you are prompted for another
selection since it is likely you have more than one junk object in your
home (If you are like me, you have much more than that!). Press Esc
when you are done.
The Museum
The Museum is another building present in each town that behaves very
much like your home. All four museum buildings share a common inventory
just like all four of your homes. However, the museum accepts donations
(d) but all donations are final: You are not allowed to take back your
gifts! If the museum gets too cluttered for your tastes, you may tidy
up with the r command. This permanently removes the selected object
from the museum and this action can not be reversed.
