That seems to be something strange involving Windows, because the
Linux version (where I do all my development work) gets it right.

- Grds in "Eggoids" don't bounce.

Their behaviour is controlled by a patch vector; I'm showing what's
in the data tables.

- Can't find out how to edit ropes.

You can't in JSW2. Either a room has a rope, or it doesn't.

- In "higway to hell", ledges don't grow up and don't disappear.

Same as the eggoids; this is patch-vector behaviour that JSWED
doesn't simulate.

- Is it a bug or what? If Willy dies somewhere by a guardian,
then he will reappear on the same place, where he got killed.

This is standard behaviour in JSW2, and very annoying. JSW II 128
patches it, but JSWED doesn't support JSW II 128.
