Reading: You apply the item (middle click (i.e. scrollwheel), or type the command "apply nameofbookhere")

Turning silver into gold, and gold into plat: go to a bank, and drop your silver/gold on the correctly labeled converter thingy. (blue rectangle)

Quetzalcoatl should be able to read.

Did you happen to pick barbarian as your class?

You'll need to find or buy a scroll of Literacy and then apply it (middle click) and hope you succeed (you'll want a high INT to improve thos chances). The scrolls can be purchased from the Post Office in Scorn, or they appear randomly in stores and dungeons.

Not really.. I can copy and paste from the handbook though.

Well, that high dex and str came at a cost - no literacy skill after character creation.

If you fail, the scroll is consumed and lost and you'll need to either buy or find another scroll to try again.

This applies to all skill scrolls and spell/prayer books.
