Is the presence of sand reported on the embark screen?

There was a recent edit that strongly suggests someone's seen sand reported on their embark screen. Yet, I've just tried to make an embark in a sand desert (using v43.05 vanilla, though I've fiddled with the init files a bit but not the raws), and there was no sand reported. I embarked and can confirm there is actually sand there, and lots of it. (images@imgur) What's going on? Also, what about sand in caverns? If someone's seen surface sand reported, is cavern sand also reported for you? --2128 (talk) 20:15, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

That is a DFHack tool. I've restored the original wording and added a mention of DFHack. —Lethosor (talk) 02:53, 2 March 2017 (UTC)
