	No, but all the items in the items.start file are set to be dropped
by monsters. You should edit the file and make some low-level items like
swords, armour, etc. marked as "in traders". To do this chage the [-3] that
is the first thing on the line to a [-4], and set the row/col numbers (the
next two numbers after the [-3]) to 0. Then delete your items.save and
items.old (make sure the mdg server is down first). When you start the
server the next time there will be items in the traders.
