Listing Visible Objects

To do so, we first create a list of the objects:

> (defparameter *objects* '(whiskey bucket frog chain))
*OBJECTS*

We can also create a second variable, *object-locations*, to track the location of each object in the form of an alist:

(defparameter *object-locations* '((whiskey living-room)
                                   (bucket living-room)
