A Cheat code from dosgames.com. Go to stairs of any level (except upstairs level 1). Drop the item(s) you want to duplicate near the stairs. Now take the stairs up/down. Then, alt-tab out of the game and go to your Nethack directory (folder). You will see some files like .0, .1, .2, etc that are named after your character in the game. The number at the end stands for what level you are on. Ignore the one with 0 at the end. Now copy the level that you dropped the items on, and put it somewhere outside the /nethack directory. Now go back to the game and go up/down the stairs, pick up your item(s) you wish to duplicate, and go back up/down the stairs once more. Then, put the file of the level with your items back into your /nethack folder. Click 'Yes' to overwrite. Then, go back up/down the stairs and collect your items again. You can repeat this process as many times as you want!

Why would anyone want to cheat on this game? If you cheat, wouldn't the stench of failure follow you all of your days?
