Hi!

   Does anyone have a working binary for nethack 3.0?  I have a later
version (f?) in source form but the package won't compile with TC 2.0.
I can't remember offhand the actual version letter, but it included
support for multiple small overlays rather than one large swap file,
which I understand to be the regular Microsoft overlay procedure.  

  Anyway, this new overlay scheme looks pretty good to me.  I have a
compiled (older version letter) one which uses the Microsoft overlays
and runs exceedingly slow on my XT.  Does anyone have a new version 
running and still playable on an XT?  I have ftp access.

  Thanks!

  Ian Willumsen.

P.S. Did anyone get TC 2.0 to compile and get nethack running ever?
