So, I added auto-explore to Angband..

[backwardsEric]

There's two minor interface or documentation issues:

1. In the rogue-like keyset, 'X' is already in use for 'use an item' so you'd want to assign a different key than 'X' in the rogue-like keyset for navigating to a down staircase.
2. The new keys should be mentioned in lib/help/commands.txt, lib/help/r_comm.txt, and docs/playing.rst.

I am now ready to receive the wrath of the dev team :P

But, really, maybe you guys should give this a try, it's not as bad as some people make it out to be.

For me, it made the tedious Shift-Running obsolete. And it wasn't really working on my laptop anyways, since the diagonals always gave me trouble.

Now exploring feels fun again.
