  Toggle sneak mode on and off.

  Usage: sneak

  While sneaking, you receive messages telling you when guards are
  watching or looking away from objects they protect. Use this
  information to time your steals for when the guard is distracted.

  Stealing from a guarded object while the guard is looking away
  has no penalty on failure. Stealing while the guard is watching
  halves your success chance, and a failure causes the guard to
  confront you.

  Sneak mode is lost when you disconnect.
