A se- quence of words terminated by whitespace is used to specify options. Word Meaning bold-objects Select bold display of objects. inverse-objects Select inverse video display of objects. no-introduction Do not display intro message. enable-checkpointing Turn on periodic checkpointing. no-beep Disable beeping of the terminal. male Choose your sex to be a man. female Choose your sex to be a woman. name: "name" Choose your playing name. monster: "name" Choose a name for a monster. savefile: "file" Define what the savegame filename will be. Your name and monster names must be enclosed in double quotation marks and may be up to 34 characters long. Longer names are truncated. Any- thing enclosed in quotation marks is considered one word, and must be separated from other words by whitespace. SPECIAL NOTES When dropping gold, if you type '*' as your amount, all your gold gets dropped. In general, typing in '*' means all of what you are inter- ested in. This is true when visiting the bank, or when contributing at altars. You can get out of the store, trading post, school, or home by hitting <esc>. When casting a spell, if you need a list of spells you can cast, type D as the first letter of your spell. The available list of spells will be shown, after which you may enter the spell code. This only works on the 1st letter of the spell you are casting. FILES /var/games/larn/lscore12.0 Score file. /var/games/larn/llog12.0 Log file. ~/.larnopts Options file.
