Re: Crossfire on HP9000 (fwd) / and inventory naming

[Mark Wedel <master@rahul.net>]

 I would prefer symbols (bitmaps/pixmaps) of some sort, or font
variations (maybe bold shows locked or equipped items).  This is because
right now, for objects that have long names, some of that stuff will
disappear off the edge (either its status, or its name/abilities).  So it
would be nice to minimize the amount of information that actually
gets appended to the item name.

 Putting a * or other pixmap next to the present one also ahs the advantage
that it makes it much easier to just glance at your inventory to see the
status.  Appending status of an object to the name means that the location
of that status can vary (ie, it will be in a different place with a very
short name compared to a long name).
