Change the handling for windowing system specific files so that
when building for more than one set, each gets compiled as a set
instead of some being interspersed among rival window systems.
Put differently, handle tile.o specially so that there's no need
for the hints to sort the WINOBJ list in order to avoid tile.o
duplication.
So the order of compilation is
common source files
unix-specific files
tty files
curses files
X11 files
Qt files
tile.c (if applicable), version.c, date.c
Previously, some of the X11 files were scattered around among the
others because of the spelling of their file names.
Only matters if you're watching the progress of a build.
initoptions(), including initoptions_finish(), was running to
completion with the default window system before windowtype from the
command was parsed and activated. When the default window system
is tty without MS-DOS the map type gets set to ascii; command line
--windowtype:X11 doesn't switch it back to the X11 default of tiled.
So,
| NETHACKOPTIONS=windowtype:X11 nethack
ran nethack in tiles mode but
| nethack --windowtype:X11
ran it in text mode (assuming .nethackrc left tiles vs text with the
default setting).
I think this fix is quite iffy but it seems to work as intended....
It reclassifies '--windowtype' as an "early option" in unixmain.c,
and the options.c code ultimately processes it twice.
Change the regex_error_desc() interface. Have the caller pass in
a pointer to a buffer of at least BUFSZ characters and have
regex_error_desc() populate that. No need for static buffers or
extra dynamic alloction.
Also, change it to never return Null. None of its callers were
checking for that and could have passed Null to config_error_add()
or raw_print(). printf("%s", NULL) produces "null" on OSX but other
systems would probably crash if a Null result ever actually occurred.
The error explanation returned by cppregex included a trailing period.
config_error_add() adds one, so the message ended up with two. Have
regex_error_desc() check for final period and strip it off if found.
(My test case used a menucolor pattern of "[" which triggers an error
about mismatched brackets.)
Reformat cppregex.cpp; treat 'extern "C" {' as if it isn't introducing
a nested block. Fix the '#include <hack.h>' that 'make depend' was
ignoring.
Allow the hints file to apply a correct timestamp to
the Guidebooks prior to use.
Detect the NH_DATESUB in the Guidebook.mn or Guidebook.tex
files and replace the datestamping line that follows.
If git is available, it determines the hash of the last commit
applied to doc/Guidebook.mn, and then determines the date of
that commit. The interim Guidebook.dated.mn (or
Guidebook.dated.tex) gets the datestamp applied.
If git isn't available or doesn't correctly provide the hash
for doc/Guidebook.mn, it should just continue to use whatever
hard-coded date in the Guidebook.mn source file (it uses it
instead of the interim file).
On a machine with both homebrew and macports, the presence of
macports was causing the homebrew Qt settings to be overwritten
right after they were set. Check to see if QTDIR is already
defined before proceeding with QT macports.
if macports is detected:
- check for ncurses from macports
- adjust the library search path to include /opt/local/lib
- adjust the C compiler include search path to include /opt/local/include
via -I/opt/local/include.
- if libncursesw* is in /opt/local/lib, link with it.
Also, USEMACPORTS=1 will use macports if you have both homebrew and macports.
It isn't required, but the ordering in the Makefile will use homebrew first
otherwise.

The Copyright notice is placed by tty internal routines writing onto
the BASE_WINDOW fairly early in the startup sequence.
The prompt to "Destroy old game? [yn] (n)" is using the in-game
routine to write to the message window at the top of the screen and
prompt there, just like in-game prompts and messages.
If the player answered 'y' to that, the prompt for
"Shall I pick character's race, role, gender and alignment..."
appeared immediately after. That one, however, is written using
the BASE_WINDOW routines in tty, like the copyright notice.
This change does the following:
It moves the copyright lines down a little bit leaving room for the
"Destroy.." prompts.
It places the "Shall I pick characters's..." prompt further down the
screen by default, leaving some room for about 3 raw_print startup
messages after the copyright notice, just in case there are any.
The "Shall I pick character's..." prompt will still appear immediately
if there is a prompt such as "Destroy old game?..."
There were a couple of other issues around raw_print startup messages
too. Those are delivered using a raw_print mechanism to ensure they
are written even if the window-port is not fully operational. However,
they were only on the screen for the blink of an eye. This call
sequence in restore.c made them disappear almost immediately:
docrt() -> cls()
Put in a mechanism to detect the presence of raw_print messages
from the early startup, and if there were some, wait for a
keypress before obliterating the unread notifications.
If homebrew is detected, and if the homebrew ncurses package
is installed, the set things up to use it.
Hopefully, this works okay for everyone right away, but it may need
some tweaking.
A new feature, enabled by default to maximize testing, but one which can
be disabled by commenting it out in config.h
With this, some additional information is added to the glyphmap entries
in a new optional substructure called u with these fields:
ucolor RGB color for use with truecolor terminals/platforms.
A ucolor value of zero means "not set." The actual
rgb value of 0 has the 0x1000000 bit set.
u256coloridx 256 color index value for use with 256 color
terminals, the closest color match to ucolor.
utf8str Custom representation via utf-8 string (can be null).
There is a new symset included in the symbols file, called enhanced1.
Some initial code has been added to parse individual
OPTIONS=glyph:glyphid/R-G-B entries in the config file.
The glyphid can, in theory, either be an individual glyph (G_* glyphid)
for a single glyph, or it can be an existing symbol S_ value
(monster, object, or cmap symbol) to store the custom representation for
all the glyphs that match that symbol.
Examples:
OPTIONS=glyph:G_fountain/U+03A8/0-150-255
(Your platform/terminal font needs to be able to include/display the
character, of course.)
The NetHack core code does parsing and storing the customized
entries, and adding them to the glyphmap data structure.
Any window port can utilize the additional information in the glyphinfo
that is passed to them, once code is added to do so.
Also, consolidate some symbol-related code into symbols.c, and remove it from
files.c and options.c
