After the following few messages, patch number 7 for NetHack3 will
be posted. It is long (30 parts), so some of you will undoubtably miss
part of it.
To reduce net traffic, first check with your mail and news
neighbors (if you can) to see if they have what you're missing. Next
check one of the archive sites ('uunet.uu.net' for those that can ftp,
'saab' and others for those can uucp).
When posting a request for a missing part or parts ask for volunteers
to notify you by email first, so you don't get 26 copies showing up in
your mailbox.
As before, I have made a fully patched source available for anon uucp
or ftp from uunet [~ftp/comp.sources.games/nethack3pl7] and anon uucp on
saab [/usr/spool/ftp/games-archive/NetHack3pl7] in 25 compressed shar
files [part01.Z thru part25.Z on uunet; Part01.Z thru Part25.Z on saab].
Because of the large number of changes in Patch #7, there will be Patch #8
in a few months to fix any bugs introduced in Patch #7. When Patch #8 is
released I will post it, then post the fully patched NetHack3 source.
