[S] Longest weapon name?

[Guest]

Archived from groups: rec.games.roguelike.nethack (More info?)

I have been trying to see what the longest weapon name is and in explore mode I got:
An invisible hazy blessed greased poisoned rustproof +3 dwarvish
Short sword named Aperist.
Approx. sixty-six characters except for the name, and 6 variables.
(invisible hazy blessed greased poisoned rustproof)
Now, I think that to lengthen in you would switch rustproof for thoroughly corroded, and switch short sword
For crude/great/elven/dark-elven dagger/broadsword.

-sidenote-

I had some problems with the time/date, so I had to re-post it. I hope you don't mind...

you can wish for thoroughly rusty thoroughly corroded rustproof items
(or, if it is a piece of armour, make them yourself).

I don't know about making them myself, when I try to rust them before, it repairs them, and if I try after
Its rustproof, so...

There are two ways to make armor fooproof, but one of those ways will
NOT repair the armor in the process. You're probably using the other,
more common method (which is equivalent to the *only* way to fooproof
weapons).

No. They're (originally) there to make reading unidentified scrolls
dangerous.
