        Motorola Q keyboard bug)
smartphone: new keypad layouts
smartphone: wizard mode command layout
smartphone: option to feed arbitrary text as a command to anethack core
tty: when loading user's run-time configuration, explicitly negating one of
        {DEC,IBM,MAC}graphics options after enabling another of them switched
        to regular ASCII and left the earlier option inaccurately set to "on"
tty: various bugfixes for very wide and/or tall screens
tty+GOLDOBJ: dropping or looting by menu wouldn't honor a count for gold
tty: fix crashing when a location has more than 32k items

        in its name happened to match a logical name
Windows: starting a game with anethack.exe (tty) and saving, then restoring
        and finishing with anethackW.exe (win32) would display the high scores
        output in a series of popup windows, one for each line of text

win32gui: use whatever alternate tile set is loaded in the menus
win32tty: prevent early error messages from flashing by too fast and not seen
win32tty: work around problem where display symbols were wrong or
        unrecognizable on systems where the default language for non-Unicode
        programs was not set to "US English" - courtesy Ray Chason
win32tty: work around problem where some characters did not show up if the
