This menu should be self-explanatory, but here goes anyway.
"Full Status…" gives you a complete description of how well you're doing so far. There are three buttons you can press when you're through reading your status: "Resume" returns you to your game, "See Top Scores" lets you see how well other folks have done in the past, and "Quit" lets you quit the game. The Quit button won't work unless you're dead, or have won the game, or chose "Quit…" from the Game menu (see below).
"Top Scores…" lets you see the records of previous valiant searches for the sacred Scarab of RA. Like "Full Status…", you can click on buttons labeled "Resume", "See Full Status", and "Quit".
The game will "beep" on various errors (such as walking into walls), and produce a sound effect when you trigger a trap. You can make the game silent by using the "Sound" menu item. You can control volume as usual with your Control Panel; a setting of zero causes the menu bar to flash instead of producing a sound.
"Click Ahead" controls whether you are allowed to click the mouse faster than the "Scarab of RA" window updates. By default, you can; but if you do, you may run full tilt into a trap or an animal which you could have avoided by clicking more slowly. Turning off "Click Ahead" enforces caution.
"Save Game…" lets you put your game away, to be resumed at some later date. When you select "Save Game…" a saved-game file will be created on your disk (you can choose what to call it) and you will then be returned to the finder. To resume, double-click on the saved-game file; the file will be removed and you will find yourself back in the pyramid, right where you left off. A saved-game file takes about 20 Kbytes on disk, so be sure you've got room for it somewhere.
Use "Quit…" when you don't want to play any more, and don't want to save the game. You will be shown your full status, as if you'd selected "Full Status…" from the menu, but the Quit button will work now. (So will "Resume", if you change your mind about quitting.) If your game is worthy of inclusion in the Dean's List, you'll be asked to type in your name after you're through reading your full status.
