rogue version 5.2 (and probably all earlier) does not have
the 'm' (move onto object without picking it up) command.
version 5.3 (and probably all later) does have 'm'.

To find out what version you are running, try 'v'
while playing the game.

When posting questions or answers, please include your version
number.  You will more likely get the answer you seek...
