Those sound like nice changes.  The game is too hard for me, and anything
to make it easier to win can't be all bad.  However, I suppose that to be
fair, one should also add items that make it harder to win.  For example,
a scroll of forgetfulness...

One feature that I'm particularly interested in:  in Rogue, a player was 
able to get a list of all magic items that they had identified.  This is 
very useful as then players don't have to write down all magic items 
they've seen on a piece of paper.  Any chance of getting this minor feature 
added to an already excellent Hack?
