Linux version displays characters wrong
« on: December 19, 2006, 13:12 »
in the linux version, it seems the characters for some of the floor (not the red ones) are a '?' on the gnome console, and are simply not desplayed on konsole.

Also, some of the keyboard shortcuts don't work.

Characters - edit DoomRL.ini and set HighAscii to False.

As for the keyboard shortcuts, I guess you're talking about Escape? If so -- that's a inherent curses problem that I have no control over -- just press escape twice.

The HighAscii shtick worked. The key that didn't work is X for exit.

Hmm, very wierd - it never works? Try rebinding it in the ini file to something else, and see if it still doesn't work.

Actually it works, but it doesn't quit but rather prints:
There are no items in sight.
