 In [[xNetHack]], version 3.0 changed the glyph for the lizard monster class to {{white|l}} (lowercase L) to avoid using punctuation glyphs, and moved [[leprechaun]]s into the {{monclass|i}} class. This was reverted in version 6.0.<ref>[https://github.com/copperwater/xNetHack/commit/6f0e0260b088cdf79cb5f857a48c428714bfce78 xNetHack commit 6f0e026: "Move lizards back to : and leprechauns back to l"]</ref>
