Enable the fancy graphix
To use the fancy VGA graphics in nethack, open the file called Nethack.cnf in your game directory, find the line: #OPTIONS=video:autodetect and remove the # -sign. Save it and try it. Looks good?

Pets and cursed items
Pets will only reluctantly step on cursed items, if at all. Use this to your advantage when trying to determine whether that ring or helmet is safe to wear. Caution: Some items curse themselves!

Save your savefiles
Ok, make a dir in your Nethavk folder named saves, then u make a Bat file (in your nethack folder) (ex. net.bat) write:
copy d:\Games\nethack\*.sav save
del d:\Games\nethack\*.sav
copy d:\Games\nethack\save\*.* d:\Games\nethack
Run net.bat
And U´ll never DIE!!!
