What follows is a description of how to inscribe your weapons in order to make them easily swappable.

First inscribe your main weapon. Press the following keys in sequence:

(Hit Enter)

Finally, ToME (unlike standard 'Vanilla' Angband) does not have an automatic trigger key to swap items, so it must be created. Select a key that is not being used for any other commands ('X' in the normal keyset is free - see Commands, and create the following keymap:

Step

Press

The trigger key for the keymap

5

(Hit Enter)

(Hit Enter)

6

(Hit Esc)

(Hit Esc to exit the editor)

Now to swap weapons, just press the trigger key 'X' which is bound to the default keymap "w0". You may also press "w0" directly to swap.
