When you examine a Bookshelf or Display rack with items on it the game crashes. Weirdly enough, if you examine a dresser, it doesn’t crash.

-it also happens when scrolling down on the 'Wish for item" on the Debug screen

I can confirm that problem from at least experimental build 1737.

Sometimes the game crashes just after you examine something (before the item list appears), but usually it crashes when you are scrolling over the item list. Using the advanced inventory works ok, so it seems to be something related to the examine command or the displaying/scrolling of the item list.

Playing currently the windows curses experimental 1743 on a windows 7 64bit.

Just merged a fix for this about an hour ago. Let us know if 1744 still has the problem, please.

Did a bit of play testing in version 1744 and it seems to be okay now, no crashes while examining items so far.

KA101 thanks for fixing it so fast, it was a really annoying bug! Keep up the good work!!!
