1) 
obj/verb
  Pickup()
   set src in oview(1)//shows up when you are besides the obj
   src.Move(usr)//moves into usr's contents
 Drop()
   set src in usr//shows when inisde the usr
   src.Move(usr.loc)//moves it out


2) 
obj/Chest
  verb/Open()
    if(!(locate(/obj/Key) in usr)) usr<<"Can't find the key"
    else usr<<"Found key"


locate() finds just the first obj you are looking for

3) Variables...input()...look em up

4) 
obj/Door
  verb/Open()
    if(locked)
      for(var/key/A in usr)
          if(A.ID==src.ID)
            usr<<"opened"
            return
    usr<<"Still locked"


Ready, Study, Research, Ask questions

shouldn't that be src in usr.contents ?

Well, if it was anything but an object, Yes... actually, it would be best to use that >.>

(In DM Ref for "src setting (verb)": [obj: src in usr // short for usr.contents
] but better to be safe than sorry)

When you use usr itself, it is implied as usr.contents, so the compiler looks inside usr as if it were looking in usr.contents.
