    There has been alot of complants on the net.news lately about the inventory
	command. Well, I think having the inventory infront of you at all 
	times would solve these problems.It might look something like this:

Message Line...
							| a) Some Food.
							| b) A +1,+1 Sword
							| c) Ring Mail
							| d) A bow.
							| e) 1000 +38 arrows
							|
		--------				|
		|....@.|				|
		|......|				|
		---+----				|
							|

Level : 1  Gold : 1000	Hp : 12(12) Str: 16  Ac : 6	Exp :    1/0



The only problem with this is smaller dungeons. But,I think having the 
inventory right infront of your eyes is worth it.This would eliminate
the "i" and "I" commands,also.

It has also been suggested that on terminals with more than 24 lines,
the extra lines be used to continuously show the inventory.
