While watching a ttyrec, I noticed strange behaviour in
the cursor updates; it was moved to approximately middle
of the map window every so often, usually when doing ranged
attacks. This wasn't really noticeable in normal gameplay,
as it was moving the cursor there, and then almost immediately
to where it was supposed to be.
I managed to trace it down to the refresh() in curses_delay_output().
That call updates the terminal to match the ncurses stdscr window,
but the stdscr window cursor position wasn't updated by NetHack.
Have curses call the core get_count() routine instead rolling its
own so that backspace and delete are supported. That part was
trivial to accomplish. Unfortunately it brought the disappearing
menu phenomenon back so it became more complicated overall.
Have the 'menucolors' option control menu color pattern matching
(instead of curses-specific 'guicolor') for all menus, not just for
the persistent inventory window.
The curses interface was ignoring video attributes (bold, inverse, &c)
when color is toggled off or if built with TEXTCOLOR disabled. Honor
attributes regardless of whether color is displayed.
Also, toggling 'hilite_pet' On during play wouldn't do anything if the
curses-specific 'petattr' option had been left as None. (It worked as
intended if set in starting options.)
This started out as an attempt to document the curses options in the
Guidebook, but I didn't actually get that far. Instead, integrate
the curses options better via more consistent WC/WC2 usage. This
prevents 'guicolor' from showing up as a boolean option for non-curses
interface in curses+other binary.
For curses itself, let 'petattr' be set/reset via 'O'. Also, accept
'Dim' as a possible pet highlight attribute since it already handles
all the other ordinary attributes. I'm not sure what leftline and
rightline highlighting are supposed to do. They were missing for
ncurses (or maybe they're misspelled for PDcurses?) but adding them
didn't produce any visible effect (using TERM=xterm-256color on OSX
with default font/character set).
Not addressed:
1) general confusion about compile-time vs run-time option filtering;
2) curses pet highlighting only works if 'color' option is enabled.
