Waking something (past tense woken)

This is the act of jostling a sleeping person to wake him or her up, and it finds its way into the Standard Rules only for historical reasons. Inform does not by default provide any model for people being asleep or awake, so this action does not do anything in the standard implementation: instead, it is always stopped by the block waking rule.
