[net.games.rogue] Dead End Levels

I'm fairly new to rogue, and I've had to quit out a couple of times
because I couldn't find the way down to the next level.  I tried using
the "s" command to reveal any secret doors, but no luck.  Do you have
to use "s" on every square foot of floor, or just once per room?

Both times, I've had no luck with potions or scrolls.

Are you SUPPOSED to give up when you hit this situation, or is there
a way out?

Search repeatedly; it is probabilistic.
