Another NetHack screenshot, this time in color:

At this point in the game I am on my way to wake the Wizard. This room full of hostile monsters is just one of the things that's supposed to slow you down on the way, but it's a pretty weak defense against any character who has made it this far.

Yes, you see five pets. There's even a sixth: my original pet, Griff, found a polytrap somewhere when I wasn't paying attention and became a quivering blob, and I chose to leave him that way, because it keeps him from attacking things and getting killed. Quivering blobs, of course, do not show up on telepathy, which is why you don't see him. If all goes well, this will be the first time I ascend with my original starting pet. The other pets were domestics (cats, mostly) that I picked up in Gehennom using tripe and transformed into various more powerful things using polytraps on purpose. I originally collected them mainly so I could get the robe from the Valley priest, and then I kept them around for now just because I can. There used to be a Jabberwock, but something happened to it (possibly a purple worm; I've seen several).

Why am I posting an ASCII screenshot of nethack here?

Because I don't have a good way to post it to usenet at the moment.

A Screenshot for the UI Hall of Shame

Okay, I'm a reasonably intelligent guy, so I was able to figure out what I need to do, but one could be excused, upon a straightforward reading of these messages, from concluding that the goal is impossible to reach due to conflicting requirements. I can't install AD until after I run adprep, but I can't run adprep until after AD is installed (which is what will make this computer a domain controller). What? Gah.

Screenshot

Okay, I'm just going to post this screenshot here to demonstrate something.
