Hi,

Saved the worst till last, sorry. The SDL console mode is seriously
buggy. Which is a shame, as it's an improvement over the old ASCII
terminal mode.

I tend to play angband from a virtual console (e.g. tty1)

Firstly, it doesn't tidy up the console when you exit, so you're left
with droppings all over the screen, which is pretty ugly.

Worse, having ssh'd in from another machine to play angband, I notice two 
further bugs:

Sometimes I get home to find my home machine's display in a very odd
state (the X cursor, attached to the mouse, is visible, though the
underlying display is one of the text consoles; when I switch into X
things sort themselves out).

And now I can't use SDL console at all, and when I try to from a tty,
I get an error message that flashes past "Couldn't initialize SDL:
Unable to open a console terminal" I think.

Regards,

Matthew
