 ==History==
-A possible ancestor for the long worm appears in the mega-worm of Hack 1.21, based on [[Jay Fenlason's Hack]]. The long worm and purple worm themselves appear in Hack for PDP-11, and both are included in the bestiary for [[Hack 1.0]]. [[NetHack 3.0.0]] introduces the baby forms of both worms.
+The long worm and purple worm first appear in Hack for PDP-11, which is based on [[Jay Fenlason's Hack]], and both are included in the bestiary for [[Hack 1.0]]&mdash;a possible ancestor for the long worm appears in the mega-worm of Hack 1.21, which is also based on Jay Fenlason's Hack. From Hack for PDP-11 to [[NetHack 2.3e]], the purple worm uses the {{white|P}} glyph, while the long worm uses the {{white|w}} glyph if the <tt>NOWORM</tt> [[compile-time option]] is ''not'' defined.
