  I accidentally save a nethack games as a restartable, non-scoring
save file.  Now I'm stuck in discovery mode.  Does anyone know of a
way to get back to scoring mode?

I have a question...

In nethack, do all the various scrolls and wands, etc
get resetted after each play?  In other words, is the function
of a YTAV AYSTV (whatever) scroll the same every time one plays?
Or does it vary (ie. sometimes an identify...other times a enchant
weapon...) ?

Yeah, they get reset. The only exception to the rule is the potion of water
in NetHack 3.0, it's always "a clear potion".
