- Most files in this directory are use by the get_rnd_line function for various
- purposes in the game. They can be edited and customized by the user with any
- ascii text editor. If you add / remove lines you should modify the index (the
- first line) accordingly. If you set an invalid index weird messages and other
- things can appear, and you can crash the game. Please see sample.txt before
- you try modifying the files. The a_*.txt and w_*.txt are used when the game
- generates a random artifact. However, instead of picking a name from the
- appropriate file, the game may form a new name from syllables[].
