zangband has features not present in other rogue clones, namely an
outdoor wilderness environment connecting different towns and different
dungeons.
The chief charm of the rogue clones is their beautiful ascii animation.
To my mind the gtk interface is a step backwards which defeats the
point of these dumb but addictive little games.
There is no need to remove zangband, we can simply drop the gtk build
instead if required.
