If you have added learn 0 in the .rc file then learning is disabled. Crafty will
create the .lrn files when it starts but they will remain blank with learning
off. Just as a note the lrn files are ascii files for humans to read what has
been learned, the actual learning crafty uses is in the .bin files.
