How do I use the sword and shield I found?
I'm just starting Dark Souls as a Warrior, and have encountered the first giant monster, archer, and sword-wielding opponents, and have found a shield and a sword, but I can't seem to equip either of them, and don't know why.
I can get to them in inventory, but when I select them, their "use" option has a line through it, and pressing that button does nothing.
I checked the wiki and it seems I should have plenty of Strength for the shield (I start with Strength 13)... is there some other requirement before I can equip them, or am I just being stumped by the UI?

If you have multiple weapons or off-hand items equipped, you can switch between them using Left and Right on the D-pad (or your controls' equivalent) during gameplay. Yep, I was on the Inventory screen. I guess I must have stopped there and not gone to the Equipment screen after finding the sword and shield.
