Use the grave accent (back tick) character as the keystroke for a
new command which prompts for an object class and then shows a subset of
the discovered objects list covering just the selected class. Similar
to the 'I' variant of 'i' for viewing inventory, and mainly useful once
the '\' discoveries list has grown long.
Implement <Someone>'s menu-mode for #name, primarily because it
is the natural place to add [re]naming entries in the discoveries list,
something that was requested in the newsgroup ten or so years ago. The
latter allows changing the type name of something which has previously
been named and is no longer being carried.
This also makes the C command become a synonym for #name or vice
versa; one or the other could now be reassigned to something else.
Since "weapons and spell skills" is grammatically suspect and
"weapons and spells skills" sounds odd, change to "weapon and spell skills"
in both the Guidebook and the game's online descriptions. The #enhance
command itself uses "current skills" and doesn't need any alteration.
Per <Someone>'s request, make the game's description of the ``#enhance''
command be the same as in the Guidebook by mentioning spell skills.
Combining weapons plural with spell singular isn't right, but I'm not
sure which way to change that so am leaving it alone. On the other hand,
the poor grammar used to describe the ``#conduct'' command is easy to fix.
- various commands were missing from various help files
- fix a few inconsistencies between similar help files
- M-2 doesn't do #twoweapon when number_pad is enabled
- M-? usually displays #? help info
- weasel-word the reason the screen shown in the Guidebook looks little like
several windowports
- document the playersuffix syntax in the nethack.6 man page
