Travel is a feature in some NetHack ports that allows one to move quickly along any already explored path on the current level. NetHack uses a shortest-path algorithm to find a safe route to the destination, which is then carried out quickly. Your travel will be interrupted if something sufficiently "interesting" happens, as with the g command; as of NetHack 3.6.3, this also includes engravings.

Travel is activated using the underscore _ key, then selecting a destination. Some ports allow travel to be activated by mouse-clicking (or touching with a touch-screen) on the destination. The travel command can also be prefixed with m to pop up a menu of interesting targets in sight, from which you can select the travel target.

The travel configuration option turns the travel command on/off. The runmode configuration option determines how often the screen updates when travelling and running.
