This is an initial attempt at adding support for hilite_pet and
hilite_pile to the msdos tile implementation, using the new
decal.txt tiles.
This initial attempt only supports a 16-bit vesa mode.
Other vesa modes and vga have not been done as of yet.
Hopefully, someone more familiar with vesa might contribute
improvements and support of the other modes at some point.
In previous versions of NetHack, setting -DUSE_TILES enabled the tile
support, while setting -DSUPPRESS_GRAPHICS produced a NetHack that
would write its TTY output to standard output, and rely on ANSI.SYS or
similar to do screen control. (USE_TILES is now TILES_IN_GLYPHMAP.)
This change ensures that the current NetHack can be built the same
ways.
One twist is that previous NetHacks would drop all support for graphical
modes when tiles were not supported. Thus sys/msdos/vid{vga,vesa}.c have
very disordered use of TILES_IN_GLYPHMAP. There was no need to check
this. But now, the graphical modes also support Unicode. A non-tiled
build should have the graphical modes, with only the text functions
present, provided that ENHANCED_SYMBOLS is defined.
Some unused and locally used symbols were cleaned up along the way.
In 16 color mode, text colors are mapped onto the colors available in
the tileset. The mapping is a compromise, and is not one-to-one: cyan
and bright cyan are the same, and magenta and bright magenta are the
same.
This change defines a separate palette for use by the text map, and
switches palettes on any transition between text and tiled maps.
* In both the 16 color and the VESA mode, the tileset image is loaded
and split into individual tiles; the tiles are then processed into a
form that is compatible with the video mode in use. For 16 color mode,
a tile is processed each time it is displayed, leading to slow
redrawing. For VESA mode, each tile is processed at startup, leading
to long startup times. Both modes are changed so that the tile is
processed once, when it is first displayed, and the result is cached.
* Use memcpy when splitting the image into tiles.
* Only load the tileset once. In 16 color mode, for reasons I do not
understand, the gr_init function is called twice, leading to delay
in startup. This does not happen in VESA mode.
The 16 color mode loads the font specified in font_map, and accepts it
only if its size is 8 by 16 pixels. This change avoids a null
dereference if the font is not found.
This change adds U+2299, U+2601 and U+2980 to the bundled fonts, so
that all symbols specified in the Extended2 symbol set are available.
Also, a few more directives are added to the files, so that FontForge
can load them and display their contents.
* makefont.lua generates incorrect PSF fonts. There can be multiple
characters mapped to a single glyph, but the mappings should be
separated by FE bytes.
* font.c should accept only single character mappings -- not combining
sequences. The bundled fonts have no combining sequences, but I am
exploring other options that provide more Unicode coverate.
VESA mode: Set the viewport size correctly so the position bar does
not overlay the map.
VESA mode: Correctly set the size to which tiles are stretched when
overview mode (F4) is selected.
Both VESA and 16 color modes: Pass correct parameters to vga_userpan
and vesa_userpan, so the pan keys (CTRL+arrow) work correctly.
Some emulations don't report CTRL with up or down arrows, so accept
CTRL-home, CTRL-page up, CTRL page down and CTRL-end.
16 color mode: Set the panning direction so CTRL-left and CTRL-right
pan in the same direction as 3.4.3.
The basic colors are being displayed as black. Colors specified as RGB
are not being converted to the pixel format for the current mode. This
manifests as walls in dungeon branches being drawn in black when the
symbol set is IBMgraphics, and in the wrong color when Enhanced1 is in
use and the display mode uses 15 or 16 bits per pixel. A particular
mode that shows this bug is 1024 by 768 under DOSBox.
Be able to carry out uplifts during minor release
lifetimes.
Document a way to be able to uplift struct content
without incrementing EDITLEVEL and breaking existing savefiles.
Use the mechanics outlined to uplift the contents instead, where
it is feasible to do so. The uplift is currently one-way only. An
uplifted savefile cannot be used with an earlier build of NetHack
, one built with a lower SAVEFILE_REVISION_LEVEL, than the one which
wrote the savefile.
The final byte (byte 79) of the 80 critical bytes in the savefile,
of which 10 are reserved for future expansion and not currently
used, will now be used for holding the savefile revision level
(SAVEFILE_REVISION_LEVEL in include/patchlevel.h) at the time
the savefile was written.
That leaves 9 of the bytes available for future use.
Move the monster spell definitions there, and use hackery
(similar to objects.h) to generate enum and data from
the header file.
I have not tested Windows, VMS, or Amiga builds.
Remove start_screen() and end_screen() from the
Window-port interface.
They were only ever used by tty, and there was a comment
carried to several window-ports about how they "really
should go away. They are tty-specific"
term_start_screen() and term_end_screen() are part of
terminal/NO_TERMS supporting routines now.
Add a note about NO_TERMS to include/wintty.h for clarity.
Rename tty_startup and tty_shutdown to term_startup() and
term_shutdown(). They are found in termcap.c for !NO_TERMS
like most of the other term_ routines, as well as having
versions for several of the NO_TERMS platforms. They aren't
part of the tty_interface called from the core. The tty
implementation does call and rely on them.
Remove some conditional #ifdef's around term_shutdown()
(formerly tty_shutdown()) and just ensure that all the
tty platforms have an implementation that they can link
with, even if it is just a stub presently.
Put the protype for nethack_exit in extern.h to reduce
maintenance to a single spot, and remove it from other
locations. A warning in the msdos cross-compile led to
this change.
Instead of flat, have bin, lib and include folders for
the native DOS pieces.
If you have been cross-compiling for MSDOS, you will
need to carry out the following to bring things up-to-date:
sys/msdos/fetch-cross-compiler.sh
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 WANT_DEBUG=1 package
There was a transcription error in the comments in cstd.h for
the standard list of header files, where only the description
remained for <stdlib.h>, not the name of the file itself.
Remove several extraneous inclusions of the standard C99 headers.
Tested on the following afterwards:
Linux (using hints/linux.370) including tty, curses, qt6, and X11
macOS (using hints/macOS.370) including tty, curses, qt5, and X11
Windows MSYS2 using sys/windows/GNUmakefile
Windows Visual Studio using sys/windows/Makefile.nmake
msdos cross-compile on Ubuntu using djgpp cross-compiler
ENHANCED_SYMBOLS is defined by default in config.h.
The msdos build tried to #undef ENHANCED_SYMBOLS
in tilemap.c, but doing it in there created a mismatch
between the data struct definition for glyph_map in wintype.h
and the initializers generated in tilemap.c
Move the msdos build catch for ENHANCED_SYMBOLS to
one single place in config1.h so that the code and data agree.
gcc has recognized various "magic comments" for white-listing
occurrences of implicit fallthrough in switch statements for
a long time:
The range and shape of "falls through" comments accepted are
contingent upon the level of the warning. (The default level is =3.)
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=0 disables the warning altogether.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=1 treats any kind of comment as a "falls through" comment.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=2 essentially accepts any comment that contains something
that matches (case insensitively) "falls?[ \t-]*thr(ough|u)" regular expression.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=3 case sensitively matches a wide range of regular
expressions, listed in the GCC manual. E.g., all of these are accepted:
/* Falls through. */
/* fall-thru */
/* Else falls through. */
/* FALLTHRU */
/* ... falls through ... */
etc.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=4 also, case sensitively matches a range of regular
expressions but is much more strict than level =3.
-Wimplicit-fallthrough=5 doesn't recognize any comments.
Plenty of other compilers did not recognize the gcc comment convention,
and up until now the compiler warning for detecting unintended
fallthrough had to be suppressed on other compilers. That's because the code
in NetHack has been relying on the gcc approach, and only the gcc approach.
The C23 standard introduces an attribute [[fallthrough]] for the
functionality, when implicit fallthrough warnings have been enabled.
Several popular compilers already support that, or a very similar attribute
style approach, today, even ahead of their C23 support:
C compiler whitelist approach
--------------------------- -------------------------------------
C23 conforming compilers [[fallthrough]]
clang versions supporting
standards prior to
C23 __attribute__((__fallthrough__))
Microsoft Visual Studio
since VS 2022 17.4.
The warning C5262 controls
whether the implict
fallthrough is detected and
warned about with
/std:clatest. [[fallthrough]]
This adds support to NetHack for the attribute approach by inserting a
macro FALLTHROUGH to the existing cases that require white-listing, so
other compilers can analyze things too.
The definition of the FALLTHROUGH macro is controlled in include/tradstdc.h.
The gcc comment approach has also been left in place at this time.
The g? structs had a mix of variables that were written to
the savefile, and those that were not.
For better clarity and to distinguish those that end up in
the savefile, relocate some g? variables that get written
directly to the savefile into different structs.
This updates EDITLEVEL, although technically it probably
didn't need to, since savefile contents are not changing.

Related note:
There are some pointer variables that are heads of chains that were not
moved from 'g?' to 'sv?', because they are not actually written to the
savefile directly, but the objects/monst/trap/lightsource/timer in the
chains they point to are. That can be changed, if desired.
Examples: gi.invent, gm.migrating_objs, gb.billobjs, gm.migrating_mons,
gf.ftrap, gl.light_base, gt.timer_base
