For those who are not familiar with the input of the game: You can move the character with hjkl (one tile) or HJKL (all the way until something is found), sometimes you may want to move diagonally by pressing one of yubn. You can also move the character by clicking the destination.
Doors may be forced open by double clicking on it. The Control key is not working at this moment. regards, - Lu On Thursday, April 9, 2015 at 1:51:54 AM UTC+8, 王璐 wrote: > > Hi all, > > I've made a proof-of-concept Web port for NetHack.
