I'm playing ADOM again after a period of inactivity... and I have been struggling for quite some time to do something that used to be very simple: picking part of a stack (e.g. one out of a stack of 2 large rations in Munxip's shop).

In previous versions, pressing "," resulted in a prompt asking how many items to take, but this doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I have gone through the keybindings but there don't seem to be other alternative commands that will help.

I've probably drunk some potion of confusion because it can't be that hard. I've finished the damn game a bunch of times and now I can't pick up an item, it can't get much more ludicrous than that! But... how do I do it?h
