There is also the curious limit of 17 saves of a game on (our) rogue 5.2.
If you think about the total number of file descriptors allowed by a single
program and subtract "stdin", "stdout", and "stderr", 17 becomes very
interesting.  Has this limitation been fixed?  It was VERY dissapointing
when I hit this one.  The file only had five (5!) bytes in it and four of them
where "junk".  Sigh, but I still enjoy rogue.  I'm sure you're busy with
important things Ken, but do you think you could fix this one (if not already)?
Thanks.
