Mistakes in the manual
Outdated information in Appendixes B and D

- In appendix D it says:

"When ADOM is started it searches for a file called 'adom.kbd' (or '.adom.kbd' on Linux systems) in your data directory (call 'adom -d' to determine your data directory)."

However in the current version the file is called adom.kbd regardless of operating system, so the text about the Linux exception should be removed.

- In appendix B it says:

"It is possible to set certain default values for ADOM with the standard configuration file. The name of the file and its location depends on the system you are playing ADOM on. The system-related readme file (readme.linux, readme.dos or readme.amiga) accompanying this distribution will give you more details about this."

However current releases do not include system-related readmes, so that part should be removed. A reference to the FAQ on ancardia.com should be provided instead, and also some text mentioning that the file is called adom.cfg (I believe this is now the name across all platforms).
