Hi,
Here is the config.h file that is used in the packaged
version. This corresponds to the 2.8.3 version; the only changes made
were (define UPDATE_VIEW_COMPLEX_WALL_ILLUMINATION, ALLOW_DEBUG,
ALLOW_SPOILERS), and modify DEFAULT_PATH and MAINTAINER. Nothing
about save files.

problems with the save key. I do not turn on all the multiuser
options -- V
