Listen up everybody:

There has been a lot of discussion about this ^Y (supposed) problem with
Rogue. Out of deference to the plea from the original poster (that he is
just a player too), this is not specifically directed.

I tested the theory. I installed the shell script to set up for play as
directed. I then played several games and found that I still got the bug.

I HAVE NOW GONE FURTHER. I NEVER PLAY ANY GAME WHERE I RUN DIAGONALLY AT
ALL. THAT INCLUDES SHIFT CHARACTERS AS WELL AS CONTROL CHARACTERS. I STILL
GET THAT )*^&(&%*^%#&# BUG EVERYTIME I GO PAST LEVEL 14.

Please discontinue discussion of this tired topic, unless it is to post
an improved fix.
