What the heck is a Glorkum?
So I'm still here playing Nethack, trying to unlock Wizard Mode, and I get to my inevitable death early on in the game.
The twist?
Google has nothing for me, referring only to "gorkums".
So, what I'm asking here is, what on God's green earth is a Glorkum, and why have my items turned into them?
glorkum is part of a debug message used for an object of unknown type in xname, the function Nethack uses to figure out what an object should be called. If you see it, you've encountered a bug.
