-
-***** <show_labels>
-Show labels in object listings [show_labels]
- Display the "labels" for objects in the "equipment" list, and in
- any "special" window which is displaying the "equipment". These

-***** <display_mutations>
-Display mutations in 'C'haracter Display [display_mutations]
- Normally, if your character has gained mutations, they will be

+Map remembers all perma-lit grids [view_perma_grids]
+ Memorize all perma-lit floor grids which are seen by the player.
+ This option allows you to keep track of which explored floor grids

+
+***** <view_torch_grids>
+Map remembers all torch-lit grids [view_torch_grids]
+ Memorize all (torch-lit) floor grids which are seen by the player.
+ This option not only allows you to keep track of which floor grids
+ have been explored, but also which ones are "dark", because the use
+ of this option activates a special "color scheme" for the display

+Map marked by detect traps [view_unsafe_grids]
+ Unknown grids that have not been traversed previously, or had a

+***** <view_reduce_view>
+Reduce view-radius in town [view_reduce_view]

+***** <fresh_before>
+Flush output while continuous command [fresh_before]
+ This option forces the game to flush all output before every
+ command. This will give you maximal information, but may slow down

+
+***** <fresh_after>
+Flush output after monster's move [fresh_after]
+ This option forces the game to flush all output after not only
+ every player command, but also after every round of processing

+ faster machines you normally do not have a chance to see the

+
+***** <fresh_message>
+Flush output after every message [fresh_message]
+ This option forces the game to flush all output after every message
+ displayed by the game. This will give you maximal information, but

- This is a hack but allows you to force the generation of "good"
