I think I have found a new hack bug that can be exploited by unscrupulous hack players (ie. me). You need to steal one inexpensive item from a shop and get the shopkeeper to come looking for you (teleport or dig your way out). Let him/her catch up to you, then pay him/her. The shopkeeper will stay at that spot indefinatly. You can then go back to the shop and loot to your hearts content. You won't be stealing because the room is not considered a shop if the shopkeeper is not there! This is true for hack 1.03. This really is a bug, maybe some industrious hack hacker has fix for this. -- Joe ARPA: sanjour@cvl CSNET: sanjour@cvl UUCP: seismo!cvl!sanjour ^-^ I saw a werewolf drinking a Pina Colada at Trader Vic's, (- -) his hair was perfect! \_/
