Luddite's "OBLATE OBLUTION OBLIGATION" [40] behave as Conveyor!
In the README.TXT, I said this was "because of the rope", but I now
realise it's because the room has the same colour-attribute for Air
and Conveyor. Thus an Earth-cell that is horizontally adjacent to an
Air-cell behaves as Conveyor when you're also standing on the Air-
cell.
I also think that the following design-pattern is quite a clever way
to protect an item, as you have to press jump at the foot of the
ramp to stop it taking you up through the overhead Earth-cells:

BTW, JSWED v2.3.1 doesn't recognise that Goodnite Luddite uses a
custom font (the Font screen is blank, and the room-titles display
using the standard Spectrum font).
