Saving a game is very simple. You have to just press S (s + Shift) and the game is saved.

To load the game, you just have to type the same name as in the saved file.

What is my name? Jack, and I am (whatever).

I start the game.

Wow! It is late! I have to stop playing now!

I press S. Yes, I do really want to save.

Next day:

What a wonderful day to play Nethack! I start the game..

What is my name? I type Jack (note: this is case sensitive!)

I press OK. Now I have loaded my saved Nethack file!

Savescumming, while associated with saving, is not the same thing!
