If you're new to the roguelike genre, you should read the introduction in the manual after
reading this. But if you aren't, quickly read this through so that you don't have to learn
these most frequently asked questions "the hard way". Thank you.


If you can't find the right commands by smacking the keyboard randomly, press ? in-game.
And if you are unable to use the keypad to move, check your numlock. It should be ON.

If you're wondering how to use wands, potions and food, or perhaps how to drop stuff,
open the inventory screen, select the item and press u or d (to drop).

In various inventory screens the color of the item indicates its blessed/cursed/uncursed/
unknown status. Blessed is yellow, cursed is red, uncursed is blue and unknown is gray.

Be careful with ranged monsters: They can shoot "through" other monsters. Also be careful
with monsters with a background color.

You need to know what the different stats mean so that you don't take agility when you
need dexterity. Here are the descriptions:

Strength:                         Vitality:
    *Increases melee damage           *Increases hit point gain per level
    *Increases carry capacity         *Increases hp regeneration

Dexterity:                        Stamina:
    *Increases ranged damage          *Increases special point gain per level
    *Increases chance to hit          *Increases sp regeneration

Agility:
    *Increases chance to dodge
    *Increases natural armor
    *Increases critical strike chance
    *Increases speed

For Windows users only:
	There is a shortcut in the package. Point that to the right .exe and right
	working directory if your Windows' version doesn't use the pretty colors or
	your terminal size is too small. It takes half a minute and enhances your
	play experience, so please do it.

	If you get an error message, which says that you don't have some data files,
	but you do have them, please check your shortcut's working directory. It should
	point to the folder where the data files are.

	The shortcut may not work on all Windows versions, but it should support at
	least the newer ones. You may have to insert the data manually (right click
	on the shortcut etc.). If it doesn't work and you don't have the prettier
	colors, you can change them manually by configuring the console. That requires
	more time, though.

	You should play it on fullscreen mode. Press ALT+ENTER to enter the fullscreen
	mode.


If this isn't enough, open the manual.
