- In the dungeon, $ represents a pile of gold pieces.
- Press $ to count the gold in your purse and the debit or credit you have with the shopkeeper. Both values are displayed instantaneously, and doing so is a free action and will not increment the turn counter. In any case, the count for your purse is always the same as the one on the status line, and does not include any money which you hid in containers such as a bag.
- You can also press $ to select gold while in your inventory for certain menus. Menu controls supported by tty and curses interfaces allow you to press certain keys and toggle selection for all items in that particular item group - in practice, only gold ever uses the $ item group.
