idle (shortened: i) is a ZZT-OOP direction token which does not point in any direction. It can be used with go and try to make the object delay execution for one cycle, or with walk to stop the object from automatically walking.

#idle is a command that is functionally identical to /i and ?i. Since #idle is technically parsed as a command and not a direction, the abbreviated #i would not be considered a valid command.
