Apparently you can sleep whilst in combat... can you please disallow this, Toady?

I can stop it while you are targeted for now, since there's no other notion of combat except for travel-restricted screens.

That'd be fine. I've accidentally done Shift-z without thinking when I wanted to do just z. Not the best thing to do when fighting a giant.

Maybe a confirmation for sleeping would make more sense, requiring you to press another key.

etter than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick which has been dipped in sulphuric acid and had razor blades inserted into it. Probably.

Sleeping *is* dangerous -- and worse yet, it's quite slow.  Maybe I should have one of those required reading links like the ADOM page, because you really need a book to get through parts of this game.

I just recommend cocoa.  Plus, if you drink enough of it, you go to sleep too!  It makes the game more realistic.
