Controls the amount of screen updating for the map window when engaged
in multi-turn movement (running via {\tt shift}+direction

The possible values are:

This option only affects the game's screen display, not the actual
results of moving. The default is {\it run\/}; versions prior to 3.4.1
used {\it teleport\/} only. Whether or not the effect is noticeable will
depend upon the window port used or on the type of terminal.
