Set things up so that the Makefile build will look for 'make.prefs'
at the top of the NetHack source tree.
If 'make.prefs' is present, the Makefile build will include it
just ahead of the PRE section of a hints file specified to
sys/unix/setup.sh, or practically the first thing during a
Makefile build if no hints file was specified.
The advantage of using a 'make.prefs' is that instead of putting a
series of Makefile variable value assignments on the command line
each time, like this:
make WANT_WIN_X11=1 WANT_WIN_TTY=1 WANT_WIN_CURSES=1 c2x=1 resp=1 update
you can, instead, put those preferences into make.prefs, like this:
# start of make.prefs
WANT_WIN_X11=1
WANT_WIN_TTY=1
WANT_WIN_CURSES=1
c2x=1
resp=1
# end of make.prefs
Now, my make command just needs to specify a target:
make update
The syntax for checking whether make.prefs exists, and for including
it, is GNU make, or bsd make, specific, so sys/unix/mkmkfile.sh will
insert the correct syntax for the make that is in-use when
sys/unix/setup.sh is executed.
The 'make.prefs' file isn't limited to Makefile variable assignments, and
can contain any valid make syntax for the version of make on your system,
but adding make syntax beyond Makefile variable assignment will cause
your make.prefs file to become specific to that version of make. There
are syntactical differences between GNU make and bsd make, particularly
for directives and conditional tests.
The 'make.prefs' file can potentially eliminate much/all of the manual
editing of distributed repository Makefiles or hints files that you, as
a NetHack developer or builder, might routinely carry out.
You have the option of placing your preference changes in 'make.prefs'
instead.

For example, on macOS, where GNU make is being used, and I typically
set things up using the macOS.500 hints file:
sys/unix/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/macOS.500
I might have the following make.prefs in the root of my NetHack source tree:
#---- snip -------
$(info Attention - Using make.prefs)
WANT_MACSOUND=1
resp=1
#---- end-snip ---
For another example, on Linux, where GNU make is being used, and I
typically set things up using the linux.500 hints file:
sys/unix/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/linux.500
I might have the following make.prefs file in the root of my NetHack
source tree:
#---- snip -------
$(info Using make.prefs)
WANT_WIN_X11=1
WANT_WIN_TTY=1
WANT_WIN_CURSES=1
c2x=1
resp=1
#---- end-snip ---
Replace bundled Spencer regex with a fetch-regex build step that
clones https://github.com/garyhouston/regex.git, generates the
required .ih and regex.h headers via mkh, and copies the result
into sys/amiga/regex/.
Usage: make CROSS_TO_AMIGA=1 fetch-regex
The fetched sources are not tracked in git.
This is the second of a series of changes related to save/restore.
No EDITLEVEL bump has been included, because although the code
is changed extensively by this, the content of the savefiles have
not been changed.
Push the use of the structlevel bwrite() and mread() function use
out of the core and into sfstruct.c. This is groundwork for upcoming
changes.
In the core, replace the bwrite() and mread() calls with the
use of type-specific savefile output (Sfo) and savefile
input (Sfi) macros. The macros are defined in a new header file
savefile.h, which also contains the prototypes for the sfo_* and
sfi_* functions that the macros ultimately expand to. The functions
themselves are in src/sfbase.c.
On C99, each Sfo or Sfi macro expansion refers directly to the
corresponding type-specific sfo_* or sfi_* function.
If C23 or later is is use, the majority (all but 3 types) of the
macros refer to a single _Generic output routine sfo(nhfp, dt, tag),
and a single _Generic input routine sfi(nhfp, dt, tag), which handles
the dispatch of the type-specific underlying functions. This was
somewhat experimental, but turned out to be practical because the
compiler would gripe if the type for a variable was not included in
the _Generic when passed as an argument, so it could be fixed.
This alters the savefile verication process by having a common set
return values for the related functions such as uptodate(),
check_version(), etc. The new return values return more information
about savefile incompatibilities, beyond failure/sucess. The
additional information will be useful for an upcoming addition.
The expanded return values are:
SF_UPTODATE (0) everything matched and looks good
SF_OUTDATED (1) savefile is outdated
SF_CRITICAL_BYTE_COUNT_MISMATCH (2) critical size count mismatch
SF_DM_IL32LLP64_ON_ILP32LL64 (3) Windows x64 savefile on x86
SF_DM_I32LP64_ON_ILP32LL64 (4) Unix 64 savefile on x86
SF_DM_ILP32LL64_ON_I32LP64 (5) x86 savefile on Unix 64
SF_DM_ILP32LL64_ON_IL32LLP64 (6) x86 savefile on Windows x64
SF_DM_I32LP64_ON_IL32LLP64 (7) Unix 64 savefile on Windows x64
SF_DM_IL32LLP64_ON_I32LP64 (8) Windows x64 savefile on Unix 64
SF_DM_MISMATCH (9) some other mismatch
The callers in the core have been adjusted to deal with the expanded
return values.
Other miscellaneous inclusions:
- go.oracle_loc -> svo.oracle_loc.
- add a bit (1UL << 30) to called SFCTOOL_BIT as groundwork
for changes to follow.
This iteration:
Places the resulting bundle folder off the top of the tree, rather than as a subdirectory of src.
Leaves the Applescript files out for now.
Builds the Info.plist (for now) via hard-coded values in the Makefile.
Builds the bundle launch script on the fly at make-time.
I think this revision may be working, at lease on my test machine.
There are more improvements to be done.
roll parts of pr385 into source tree
This does not take the PR as is.
Unlike the PR, this streamlines and minimizes the integration somewhat:
- use hints/include mechanism instead of creating alternative
Makefile.dat, Makefile.src, Makefile.top, Makefile.utl in sys/lib;
those would have been a maintenance nightmare.
- don't have alternative mkmkfile.sh and setup.sh in sys/lib.
- sys/lib/libnethackmain.c differed from sys/unix/unixmain.c by
very little, so just place a small bit of conditional code at the
top of sys/unix/unixmain.c instead.
- changed the conditional code bits from __EMSCRIPTEN__ to
CROSS_TO_WASM.
- You should be able to build the wasm result by:
cd sys/unix ; sh setup.sh hints/linux.2020 ; cd ../..
make fetch-lua (<-one time)
make WANT_LIBNH all
- You should be able to build LIBNBH by:
cd sys/unix ; sh setup.sh hints/linux.2020 ; cd ../..
make fetch-lua (<-one time)
make CROSS_TO_WASM=1 all
As it is currently coded, winshim.c requires C99.
