What were you trying to do?
I was running xconq -e 5 -p wizardwar
What's wrong:
I accidentally told a galleon to embark, when there was
nothing for it to embark on. Two of the border hexes at the bottom of
the screen started flickering, as if the program were continually
redrawing first one and then the other. The program stopped
responding to keyboard input - freezing and unfreezing also failed to
help.
What should have happened:
It should have given me a "You can't embark that on anything"
type of message and then waited for a valid command.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
