Purks) Newsgroups: comp.sources.bugs Subject: bug in Nethack 1.4f (possible spoiler) Message-ID: <640@hadron.UUCP> Date: Tue, 22-Sep-87 16:39:30 EDT Article-I.D.: hadron.640 Posted: Tue Sep 22 16:39:30 1987 Date-Received: Thu, 24-Sep-87 06:54:42 EDT Lines: 19 Keywords: secret words At the risk of generating a spoiler, writing E------- with your f----- (if you've got the source, you know what I'm talking about) doesn't seem to work correctly in Nethack 1.4f. I was battling Orcs in two different games...in one they continued to beat up on me and in the other they thre rocks and killed me (though, it is possible that the first instance is simply another case of the second). Anyone know what might be wrong? I suppose it's possible that this is the way it's supposed to be but I thought that E------- was a total truce. I doubt it makes a difference in this case, but I'm running Nethack 1.4f under IBM DOS version 3.3 on an AT, compiled using MSC version 4.0. Dave Purks ...uunet!hadron!dkp
