History

In 0.12 the s command waits 1 turn (usually 10 auts) with finer interrupt granularity (1 aut). It will stop waiting at the instant the position of a monster changes. It can't detect traps anymore, because the amount of skill required to detect a trap is a random number which is rolled when each trap is created. Prior to 0.12, a roll was made each time you pressed s.
