14451, Idea to see exits in prompt
Posted by Jaja on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Hi

I suggest to make it possible to show exits in short format,
like ESW for east, south and west, in prompt. It obviously
should be "none" for no-exits and
"undefined" for times you cannot make out the exits
(blind and so on). To mark doors the brakets can be used:
E[S][W] or, to look more readable, use lower letters for that,
like "Esw" for exit east and doors south and west.

This solves a problem one has to keep smapping
"exits" or "look" every time there is even
a short stay in a room.

The exits command is great. It shows you lot more information
than your prompt will (roomname in that direction, as well as
illustrating different maladies that might be affecting you
without you knowing it, such as bard songs and darkness), and
you only have to hit three keys to use it. "e"
"x" "enter".
