The 'trapping' skill entails the most basic of trapmaking techniques, allowing for the construction of simple booby traps, such as pits and snares.
Perhaps more importantly, with the knowledge gained by this skill, you can attempt to detect or disarm any kind of trap, although when dealing with more advanced traps, having more advanced skills helps.
If you suspect that an exit or object may be trapped, use the 'search' command to try to detect the trap, such as 'search north'. Be warned that if your search goes poorly, you may accidently set off the trap.
See 'trap help' for a list of trap-related commands.
