ooh, I learned something - when did elves become 'e' instead of 'E'?

Aren't they actually ë?

Nevermind, that means they're enslaved I believe.

Alternatively, it means that they are (Insert weapon here)Elves

Elf soldiers?

Elves have always been "e" and "ë" is elf soldiers.

Elves used to be E.  At least in .28.40d they were.  I think that might have been the last time I saw an Elf caravan...

Yeah, wiki says 0.31 for when elves were downgraded from 'E' to 'e'.

Look doesn't tell you what the flashing right-angle signs are, or what the odd purple things are in rooms that you just left and can no longer see. For a GUI this messed up Look doesn't cut it.

If there was a comprehensive table somwhere that showed what the characters meant in all their wondrous blinking, spinning hues, that would be acceptable. But to put out this cryptic GUI with no explanation or support? Really?

Press the look button (lowercase L) and use arrow keys to move the yellow X onto the symbol.

EDIT: Never mind. The flashing things are where creatures are moving I believe and the purple shadows are where they were last spotted.

Don't think this post was worth the necro. If the OP is still staring at his screen wondering what all the flashing colours are 4 months on, I doubt we can help him.

Maybe others who need help will find this post? But I agree with you.

Anyone could use this thread to rant about the interface, because four months after his post it's still a horrific GUI!

[Ziusudra]

Can we argue over if it's a GUI or a TUI?
