There is a step you can take which will make other things hurt ghosts, too. I don't know whether a magic weapon will hurt a ghost before taking this step. I tend to doubt it, though, because I think I tried it before figuring out what to do, and the place in the source where the message is printed seems like it will be reached on any weapon attack, whatever weapon you use. In any case, if you cast the spell "dispell" on a ghost, then it will stop moaning, and will be hurt by all types of attacks, as far as I can tell. You may still find it hard to hit ("You miss", etc.), but if you go into TCM (Tactical Combat mode), then you will hit almost every time. (Yes, TCM has its uses.) -- Nathan Glasser fnord nathan@{mit-eddie.uucp, xx.lcs.mit.edu} "A tribble is the only love that money can buy."
