<you float over the line eater>

In my many games of hack I have found many uses of levitation:.
 
To name a few:
   to avoid traps (pits, posion darts, bear traps, trap doors, etc)
     this is especially useful if you are currently under the effects of
     a potion (such as 'speed' or invisibility and you don't want
     to get delayed by a trap (which will cut down the usefulness)
      
     another use of this is to float over traps and lure monsters
     into them
     
   to avoid mishaps:
      whwn wielding a basilisk corpse it means death (as i found out)
      to stumble upon at pit or trap door.

   to avoid the pools:
      when on level ~20 you will encounter a room full of pools 
      containing eels. By levitating you can avoid the pools and
      (if they are empty) not drown.

   to avoid basilisk corpses:
      after you kill a basilisk or two you can wear a ring of levitation
      to avoid accidentily touching the corpses (which occurs quite
      frequently if you teleport and/or have a dog.

   to examine treasure rooms:
      when I first go into a shop I like to see everything before I pick
      it up. while i can m<dir> I perfer to wear the ring or quaff the
      potion andnormal move over a likely (interesting) treasure.
      Then I use the colon ':' command to see what is on the floor.
      (You do know about the colon command - I discovered it accidently
      since it is not in the help file)
