Document the way to decline a wish or genocide, and allow both
actions to accept both "none" and "nothing" so that players don't
have to remember which response goes with which prompt.
The shop billing code assumes that food marked partly eaten
is worthless, but the eating code was changed to make sure that any
eating attempt will never leave food marked as not partly eaten.
The end result is that non-corpse food which is consumed in a
single byte can be eaten off shop floors for free, and if eaten
from inventory--so already on shop bill--the "Ix" display of used
up goods lists the item as partly eaten (with right price though).
This fix makes single-byte food be handled the same as other
food: the first byte taken causes the food to be auto-purchased
immediately instead of waiting until it's used up to add it to the
shopping bill.
Fix one of the problems From a bug report: Mjollnir is only
giving the intended feedback when it is thrown. Against ordinary
monsters the problem isn't too bad--you get a lightning message
without the preceding hit message--but against resistant ones there
is no message at all when you hit hand-to-hand. (There is a similar
bug for artifacts which add magic missile damage, but since no such
artifacts exist that isn't much of a problem. :-)
