Remove most feature ifdefs
Now always enabled:
SINKS, WALLIFIED_MAZE, STEED, FIREARMS, TOURIST, CONVICT,
OTHER_SERVICES, ATTACK_PETS, YOUMONST_SPELL, PET_SATIATION, ELBERETH,
REDO, EXP_ON_BOTL, SCORE_ON_BOTL, AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTIONS, SHOW_BORN,
SHOW_EXTINCT, SORTLOOT, PARANOID, QWERTZ, REALTIME_ON_BOTL,
RECORD_CONDUCT RECORD_TURNS, RECORD_ACHIEVE, RECORD_REALTIME,
RECORD_START_END_TIME, RECORD_GENDER0, RECORD_ALIGN0, BARD

Completely unused ifdefs removed:
TAME_RANGED_ATTACKS

Unused in practice ifdefs removed:
NO_SCAN_BRACK (seemingly an undocumented workaround for lattice fscanf
being unable to read the score file)

Mostly done with coan2, with some manual edits for stuff coan2 can't
handle (it doesn't like macromagic).

I kept REINCARNATION (because I use it and it works) and SEDUCE (it
doesn't work but might be made to at some point).

The showborn option is now default.

.SH NAME
lev_comp \- NetHack special levels compiler
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B lev_comp
[
.B \-w
]
[
.I files
]
.PP
If no arguments are given, it reads standard input.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
.I Lev_comp
is a special level compiler for NetHack version 3.2 and higher. It
takes description files as arguments and produces level files that can
be loaded by NetHack at runtime.
.PP
The purpose of this tool is to provide NetHack administrators and
implementors with a convenient way for adding special levels to the
game, or modifying existing ones, without having to recompile the
entire world.
.PP
The
.B \-w
option causes
.I lev_comp
to perform extra checks on the level and display extra warnings, however
these warnings are sometimes superfluous, so they are not normally displayed.

The contents of a "MAP" description of a maze is a rectangle showing the exact
level map that should be used for the given part of a maze.
Each character in the map corresponds to a location on the screen.
Different location types are denoted using different ASCII characters.
The following characters are recognized.
To give an idea of how these are used, see the EXAMPLE, below.
The maximum size of a map is normally 76 columns by 21 rows.

.PP
This example will produce a file named "fortress" that can be integrated into
one of the numerous mazes of the game.
.PP
Note especially the final, TELEPORT_REGION specification. This says
that level teleports or other non-stairway arrivals on this level can
land anywhere on the level except the area of the map. This shows the
use of the ``levregion'' prefix allowed in certain region specifications.
Normally, regions apply only to the most recent MAP specification, but
when prefixed with ``levregion'', one can refer to any area of the
level, regardless of the placement of the current MAP in the level.

Probably infinite.
Most importantly, still needs additional bounds checking.
