In response to your message of Sat Sep 18 11:51:47 1982: In a treasure room, anything can attack you at any time (unless you've put on a ring of stealth). This is why they're such a pain in the ass---it's bad enough to be jumped by leprechauns and nymphs that you might normally ignore, but if an eye attacks you very likely have had it. This is the reason the paralytic properties of the eye are far more objectionable than they were in versions 3.n.
