Depends on how you play the game, I strongly prefer the
text display (after years of playing nethack no graphic
can beat the terror of seeing a purple h walking towards
you),

<evil grin>

The .nethackrc the spell installs will crash the game if
you try and play it from a console (i.e. not under X)
and a spell really shouldn't be eating into a users disk
space too.

(just my 2c)
