I've got an issue with Pentagram, since I downloaded it recently.
1.) It would help if you could post a link on the Pentagram project page to the download page here. It's not immediately obvious that Pentagram may be downloaded from the Exult download page.
2.) Is it possible to explore any area other than the docks? I couldn't seem to go anywhere else.
Thanks for your help, merci bucket, etc.

1.) linking and information on pentagram is really not done much
but the download isn't really that interesting that much anyway unless you are a developer.
2.) I *think* it is written in the readme on how to change the map. unfortunately I neither have the time nor the bandwidth to download the source to check (and most depressing I deleted all the sources from my laptop to make room for other useless stuff and my homecomputer did not travel with me to maui)

So I have to use the command prompt and type mapdisp and a number by force to access a different map?
Anyway, is it possible to toggle the eggs and stuff? I didn't find anything about this in the readme.

You don't have to type a number _by force_, typing it gently will do the trick too
Keep in mind that the mapdisp/shpdisk/animdisp/... were really just hacks to experiment with decoding the map, shape, anim, etc... file formats, and later trying out some design ideas for the 'real' pentagram.
