Can't see where I am on the map

So I can display the map with "M" but where the hell am I ? Is it a way to see this or not ?

If you hit "L" it'll show your current location (Map Sector [0,0 down to 4,4]  and you can look around on the level you're on with the arrow keys.

M will show the entire level but the view is not very detailed and it will not reveal where you are.

Say if you come to town, from one of the wilderness levels, you can hit "M" and the only places where you see "..." (explored/known ground/floor/roads/mud/whatever) will be where you are. Same thing for wilderness levels and the dungeon. A little hard to explain and much easier to just use "L" to understand your surroundings.

Still, this highlights a potential need: placing an @ on the M map. That would be cool to see.
