This uses an undocumented way to adjust the console
colours in a win32 console application. The method and
code snippet used comes from www.catch22.net by James Brown.
This page:
http://www.catch22.net/about.asp
states the following:
"you do not have to pay anything to use the software, and there are no
licencing terms for any sourcecode that you may download from this site.
This means you can freely use any sourcecode or portions of code in
your applications, whether they be free software or professional, retail
products."
The NOCWD_ASSUMPTIONS conditional code allows readonly
parts of NetHack to be separated from areas that require write-access.
This allows the recent panic log needed a prefix.
- splash_screen (boolean for whether to display splash screen at startup)
- player_selection:dialog|prompts
Also moves the font and window manipulation stuff in defaults.nh
further down the file, so that a tty users doesn't have to wade
through it all to find the character adjustment samples.
part 2 touches only port files
