How do I use an old savefile or savefile from another platform?
The latest version of Angband should import savefiles from any previous version, including MacAngband 1.0 – 2.0.3 and PC Angband 1.4, though some older savefiles will lose some information during the import (for example, pre-2.7.8 savefiles may lose all or part of the monster memory and/or object memory). Savefiles are platform-independent. Be sure to use ‘binary’ FTP if that is your method of transfer. On a Macintosh, use the Import… menu item to import savefiles lacking the proper type (‘SAVE’) and creator (‘A271’).
