It looks like Help-Meister and BoCF don't get along; BoCF doesn't respond
to the keyboard if HM is installed.  This is particularly a pain if one
is trying to restore a saved game because of the keyword protection.  Oh
well, there goes Help Meister.

On a different note, has anybody noticed a bug which has been plaguing the
IBM BoCF world: if you change classes to a non spell-caster, that character
no longer regenerates spell points?  I'd like to know if it exists on the
Mac version (whose code was a direct port of the Amiga 68000 code) before
I start switching classes.

It's an excellent game IMHO if you don't mind the interface (which becomes
less annoying after a while)
