 * SPLEVTYPE - Forces NetHack to use certain layouts for the [[special level]]s that have multiple layouts. For example: <code>bigrm-2,minetn-5</code> would force the 2nd bigroom variant (with the dark and light areas), and the 5th minetown variant (the grotto town).
 * NH_HEAPLOG - If the value is a file name and NetHack can write to that file, all memory allocations and release information done by NetHack is written there.  This is only available if the MONITOR_HEAP [[compile-time options|compile-time option]] is enabled, which by default it it is not.

-NetHack checks the following '''environment variables''':
+NetHack checks a number of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_variable environment variables].  Some are useful for anyone, some are just for [[wizard mode]].  HOME, MAIL, and TERM are used by many programs, not just NetHack, so caution should be taken when editing them.

-*ROGUEOPTS - Set the ghost name in the [[Rogue level]]. For example, setting ROGUEOPTS's value to <tt>name=Foo</tt> would name the ghost to 'Foo'
+* MAIL - On window ports that support reading mail, this should point to your mail spool file.
