	I believe that "f" and "F" work just fine, provided:

	(a) you're only fighting one monster, and
	(b) you have enough hit points to survive at least one full-force
	hit from the monster in question.

	Using "f" twice in succession may get you killed since it returns
control to you if the hit points *drop* below the minimum necessary to
survive another hit; if the hit points are *already below the minimum*, 
I think it just swings again.

	If either (a) or (b) isn't true, I usually find it better to assume
"manual" control anyway.
