[net.games.rogue] fungi and fly-traps

[Yum, this Rogue tastes like a big bug.]

If you're playing 5.3, don't use "fight." Violet fungi and Venus'
fly-traps exude a poison that wounds you as long as you're fighting.
Each hit adds another measure of poison.  The "fight" key will
_always_ fight to the death against a fly-trap.

DON'T WASTE TIME when you're fighting a fly-trap!  And watch your
hit points, so you know how much poison is on you.

	F	When into a room I plunge, I
		Sometimes find some VIOLET FUNGI.
		Then I linger, darkly brooding
		On the poison they're exuding.
