Thanks.

Not got anything setup, so just to my email address.

Only masks and walls are shown on the map once you have collected the map
pieces.

Oh, that's um interesting. Had forgotten to properly check it. I can't
reproduce it as a segfault, but the display does get mashed. Does not
happen in xterm, but does in Xfce Terminal. Might be something to do
with some of the char variable types I used for data storage maybe.

Thanks,
