+# This configuration file is set up for two cases, for a hard disk
+# (as drive C:), and for one (double sided) floppy disk.
+#
+# To change the configuration, comment out the unwanted lines, and
+# uncomment the configuration you want.
+
+
+# *** OPTIONS ***
+#
+# If you want people to play NetHack over the modem, you should probably
+# uncomment the following line:
+#
+#OPTIONS=!BIOS,number_pad,nocolor
+#
+# Some options to set personal preferences.  Uncomment and change these to
+# suit your personal preference.  If several people are to use the same
+# configuration, options like these should not be set.
+#
+#OPTIONS=name:Janet-V,female,dogname:Fido,catname:Morris,fruit:apricot
+#OPTIONS=packorder:")[%?+/=!(*0_`,scores:10 top/2 around/own
+#
+#
+# Other general options.  You might also set "silent" so as not to attract
+# the boss's attention.
+#
+OPTIONS=BIOS,time,rest_on_space,noautopickup
+
+# Color: if you have a color monitor and *don't* want colors, 
+# comment out the following line. (Mono users don't get color no matter what.)
+#
+#OPTIONS=nocolor
+
+# *** HARD DISK CONFIGURATION ***
+#
+HACKDIR=c:\nh31\games
+#
+#   LEVELS and SAVE default to HACKDIR
+#
+LEVELS=c:\nh31\games
+#   appending a ";n" to SAVE means don't prompt to insert a disk.
+SAVE=c:\nh31\games;n

+# Using a ramdisk speeds things up.

+# NOTE: the RAMDISK *must* be on a different drive from HACKDIR, LEVELS, and
+# SAVE. If you're already keeping your LEVELS on a ramdisk, the RAMDISK=
+# variable is redundant.
