To start with, you can just say angband -uTest, and that creates a save
file with the file name /var/games/angband/save/<UID>Test. The best
place to get help is the program itself; help is reached by the command
? and presents a menu of choices.
Program options can be set using the = command. To see what the
various options mean, access the List of Options help menu with the ?
command.
