I don't really see the advantage to that.  The way it is now, while
somewhat inelegant, does allow the user to hack the tiles.

That .el file should be generated, at least, I think.
 
BTW, I renamed most references of glyphs to tiles, which is, I think
proper nethack lingo.  Everything except the file, nethack-glyphs.el.
Glyph is the more general term; either graphical tiles or ascii chars.
Though its somewhat confused now by the fact that gamegrid supports
"glyphs".

I didn't know that they should :)  Lemme know if you find the problem.
