What this patch does:
==============

My style of play uses a lot of digging.  In order to make cutting wide
swaths into the dungeon rock easier, I've added a dig command, which uses
the logically chosen "-" key (as in subtracting rock).  If you have a pick
axe or mattock in your inventory, you can now press "-" to start digging.
As a consequence, it also removes the alias to the "F" command, but since
you can still just press "F", I don't see that as a problem.

Something I decided not to include in this patch, is a change where any key
can be pressed at the "--More--" prompt.  I figure the DevTeam prefers that
you press Space.  I have this in my copy, so I can really make progress by
simply banging away on the keypad.  (Or, mow through a military barracks by
simply holding down a direction key.)


How to use these modifications:
======================
To apply the patch under a *NIX OS do the following:
(1) Download the source code tarball, available from
<ftp://ftp.nethack.org/pub/nethack/nh331/src/nethack-331.tgz> .
(2) Extract the tar ball, i.e. "gzip -d -c nethack-331.tgz | tar xf -" .
(3) Change directory to the nethack-3.3.1 directory that Tar created.
(4) Save this patch file into this directory, i.e. "patch.txt" .
(5) Run patch, i.e. "patch -p1 < patch.txt" .
(6) Follow Nethack's installation instructions to compile and install
Nethack.

Enjoy!
