Is this a bug or is it the way it's supposed to be?

Also, I read a scroll of magic mapping, spotted a vault, and proceeded
to rim the rooms. No 'ad er um'! Is this right?

If you wield a wand that's been used up and read an enchant weapon scroll,
will it add any charges to the wand?

No that you allude to it's significance what is the 'ad er um' all about?
Thank you.

That little note of 'ad?er?um' (or whatever it is exactly) is a marker
for the *secret* door to the *secret* teleport #.  Once that # has been
discovered, it is good for only one trip and must be used immediately.
In other words, reading a scroll of magic mapping will show you the vault
and the #, but the teleport will no longer function.
