Change the '|'/#perminv final positioning for X11 to be the same
as for curses: finishing with <escape> leaves the current view,
with <return> resets to unscrolled.
Actually getting ESC and RET to the right place wasn't trivial;
down the rabbit hole and out the other side. Using yn_function()
to get the #perminv keystrokes is less than ideal. (curses also
started that way but switched to raw character input for this.)
Add new '|' command, aka #perminv, which allows the player to
send menu scrolling keystrokes to the persistent inventory window.
Implemented for X11, where its usefulness is limited, and for
curses, where it is more needed and also more fully functional.
The interface can either prompt for one keystroke, act upon it,
and return to normal play, or it can loop for multiple keystrokes
until player types <return> or <escape>. X11 does the former if
the 'slow' application resource is False so that prompting uses
popups, and the latter when 'slow' is True where prompting is in
a fixed spot and doesn't end up causing the persistent inventory
window to be stacked behind the map window. curses always does
the loop-until-done approach. It also accepts up and down arrow
keys to scroll one line at a time.
Also adds two new menu scrolling commands, menu_shift_right (key
'}' by default) and menu_shift_left ('{') if wincap2 flags contain
WC2_MENU_SHIFT. Shifting allows different substrings of too-long
lines to be seen.
For X11, neither works because their handling requires a horizontal
scrollbar and for some reason that escapes me our menus don't have
one of those. If they did, shifts could work for all menus but a
shifted window would hide the selection letters. So shifting would
be most usefully done as: pan right, read more of any long lines,
immediately pan back to the left.
For curses, they only apply to the persistent inventory window.
Shift right redraws it with class headers and inventory letters
shown normally but the item descriptions omit their leftmost
portion, showing more text towards the end. Shift left reverses
that and does nothing if the beginning is already in view. Forward
and backward scrolling while shifted leave the shift in place.
Give the window-port side of *_update_inventory() an argument.
Calls in the core still omit that; invent.c's update_inventory()
is the only place that cares.
Looking up scrollbars did not work as intended. The code wanted an
ancestor widget that had both horizontal and vertical scrollbars,
but menus either have none or just vertical. The lookup code found
some top level widget and returned bad data.
In a couple of places, call menu_popdown instead of duplicating
its contents. I'm fairly sure that executing the is_active bit
that the duplications omitted is safe.
Several minor formatting bits are mixed in.
Widget widths should have type 'Dimension' rather than plain 'int'.
Perform a couple of things once during popup widget creation rather
than every time it gets popped up.
When X11_yn_function() re-uses a popup widget to issue a prompt
and get the player's response, make it resize properly. I'm not
sure why the old hack for that apparently worked for some folks
and not for me, or why this does work for me. At least it does.
Also, make the minimum popup width be 25 characters so that
really short prompts don't result in tiny popups. Since the
popup appears at whatever spot the pointer happens to be sitting,
it isn't always immediately noticeable when the player is using
the keyboard rather than the pointer.
X11_getlin() echoing its prompt and response to message window
truncates combined value to maximum allowed pline (rather than
having pline truncate it). But it was truncating the response
as if the prompt was maximum allowed length instead of its actual
length, so possibly hiding some of the user's text unnecessarily.
After player has responded to a getline prompt, echo the prompt
and the line of text response to the message window. Uses pline()
so also gets put into core's message history for dumplog.
More issues. The incorrectly rendered map after panning is one
I haven't seen before. Normally I only have a clipped map if I
force double size tiles rather and hadn't noticed this behavior
for that case, so manually resizing--and/or the scrollbars which
get added when that occurs--may be what triggers it.
X11_yn_function() issues a pline() to put the prompt and player's
response into the message window. Change it to use visctrl() to
make sure that the response character is ledgible when something
like the '&' command allows an arbitrary answer.
This patch adds a leading space and two extra trailing spaces
to the prompt when it's being issued via popup, but that hasn't
affected the issue mentioned next....
The popup prompting when the 'slow' resource is False doesn't
always resize properly. I saw both too wide and too narrow
[What do you want to throw? [abc] ]b
[ In what direction? ]
and
[Really quit? [yn] (n) ]y
[Dump core? [ynq] (q) ]n (size seemed right, but hard to tell)
[Do you want your posses] (might have shown one more letter;
resize doodad in window's bottom right
corner on OSX oscures the rightmost
column--which is ordinarily a space)
The truncated one did accept responses. If I answered 'n' then
the next question was truncated too, but for 'y' (plus ensuing
feedback) it would be sized correctly for the question after that.
To be clear: the popup width issue was present before this change
and is still present after it. The code already has a hack that's
intended to deal with this but it doesn't do the job for me.
If 'perm_invent' is preset in player's options, have X11 show the
persistent inventory window from the start instead of waiting for
an 'i' command. moveloop() prolog needed a tweak do deal with it
cleanly.
Require WC_PERM_INVENT in order to honor the perm_invent option.
X11 and curses already set that, tty and curses don't support it,
so only Windows GUI needed to be updated for it.
When persistent inventory window is up, remove it if 'perm_invent'
option gets set to False. This has a side-effect of fixing the
end-of-game prompting problem it caused.
This hack prevents the perm_invent window for X11 on OSX from
creeping every time it gets updated. It is far from perfect and
at the very least ought be handled via user settable X resources
rather than hardcoded values, but it's as much effort as I'm likely
to spend.
Add a new file containing a list of issues that ought to be fixed.
The initial entries are things I noticed while experimenting with
perm_invent; there is lots of older stuff that could/should be
there too. I'm not sure whether the first one is OSX-specific; the
others aren't.
Prevent the "X Error (bad Atom)" situation that causes an
"X Error" panic.
The issue isn't fixed. This fails to implement the intended
functionality of having the X server remember the persistent
inventory window's location across games (until the next time
that the X server restarts). Worse, on OSX the window creeps
each time it is updated (visually it seems to be moving down by
the height of the window's title bar).
That's not as bad as having it move to the pointer's location as
it did in 3.6.1, but prior to the commit which introduced this
code that had been fixed and it stayed put during the current
game, so more work is definitely needed.
Fix a couple of warnings and do some reformatting.
Also tracks current color and attributes for each status field
and only updates them if they're being changed instead of every
time the value changes. Not very thoroughly tested so far.
The only attribute being supported is inverse but tty-style
status supports the full set. Also, changed values are always
highlighted in inverse even if there is no highlight rule.
That should probably only apply when 'statushilites' is 0,
giving the old fancy status highlighting when regular hilites
are turned off.
for 'fancy status'. This is from an emailed diff rather than
directly from git, and the git code has a bunch of commits,
so this may or may not match the latest. It needs formatting
cleanup and triggers a couple of warnings on OSX. Fix to follow.
Status highlight colors use the same names as menu coloring
but this uses different X11 colors for the two sets. That
will have to be changed so that yellow either means yellow all
the time or goldenrod all the time instead of sometimes yellow
and sometimes goldenrod.
Adopts #443
Implement the 'selectsaved' option for X11. Requires that
SELECTSAVED be defined at compile time.
Behaves the same as for tty and curses except that if you
choose 'quit', the intended "until next time..." message doesn't
get delivered anywhere.
further adjustments to the window port interface to pass a pointer
to a glyph_info struct which describes not just the glyph number
itself, but also the ttychar, the color, the glyphflags, and the
symset index.
This affects two existing window port calls that get passed glyphs
and does the parameter consistently for both of them using the
glyph_info struct pointer:
print_glyph()
add_menu().
The recently added glyphmod parameter is now unnecessary and has been
removed.
add MALE, FEMALE, and gender-neutral names for individual monster species
to the mons array. The gender-neutral name (NEUTRAL) is mandatory, the
MALE and FEMALE versions are not.
replace code uses of the mname field of permonst with one of the three
potentially-available gender-specific names.
consolidate some separate mons entries that differed only by species into a
single mons entry (caveman, cavewoman and priest,priestess etc.)
consolidate several "* lord" and "* queen/* king" monst entries into
their single species, and allow both genders on some where it makes some
sense (there is probably more work and cleanup to come out of this at some
point, and the chosen gender-neutral name variations are not cast in stone
if someone has better suggestions).
related function or macro additions:
pmname(pm, gender) to get the gender variation of the permonst name. It
guards against monsters that haven't got anything except NEUTRAL naming
and falls back to the NEUTRAL version if FEMALE and MALE versions are
missing.
Ugender to obtain the current hero gender.
Mgender(mtmp) to obtain the gender of a monster
While the code can safely refer directly to pmnames[NEUTRAL] safely in the
code because it always exists, the other two (pmnames[MALE] and
pmnames[FEMALE] may not exist so use:
pmname(ptr, gidx)
where -ptr is a permonst *
-gidx is an index into the pmnames array field of the
permonst struct
pmname() checks for a valid index and checks for null-pointers for
pmnames[MALE] and pmnames[FEMALE], and will fall back to pmnames[NEUTRAL] if
the pointer requested if the requested variation is unavailable, or if the
gidx is out-of-range.
Allow code to specify makemon flags to request female or male (via MM_MALE
and MM_FEMALE flags respectively)to makedefs, since the species alone doesn't
distinguish male/female anymore. Specifying MM_MALE or MM_FEMALE won't
override the pm M2_MALE and M2_FEMALE flags on a mons[] entry.
male and female tiles have been added to win/share/monsters.txt.
The majority are duplicated placeholders except for those that were
separate mons entries before. Perhaps someone will contribute artwork in the
future to make the male and female variations visually distinguishable.
tilemapping via has the MALE tile indexes in the glyph2tile[]
array produced at build time. If a window port has information that the
FEMALE tile is required, it just has to increment the index returned
from the glyph2tile[] array by 1.
statues already preserved gender of the monster through STATUE_FEMALE
and STATUE_MALE, so ensure that pmnames takes that into consideration.
I expect some refinement will be required after broad play-testing puts it to
the test.
consolidate caveman,cavewoman and priest,priestess monst.c entries etc
This commit will require a bump of editlevel in patchlevel.h because it alters
the index numbers of the monsters due to the consolidation of some. Those
index numbers are saved in some other structures, even though the mons[] array
itself is not part of the savefile.
Window Port Interface Change
Also add a parameter to print_glyph to convey additional information beyond
the glyph to the window ports. Every single window port was calling back to
mapglyph for the information anyway, so just included it in the interface and
produce the information right in the display core.
The mapglyph() function uses will be eliminated, although there are still some
in the code yet to be dealt with.
win32, tty, x11, Qt, msdos window ports have all had adjustments done to
utilize the new parameter instead of calling mapglyph, but some of those
window ports have not been thoroughly tested since the changes.
Interface change additional info:
print_glyph(window, x, y, glyph, bkglyph, *glyphmod)
-- Print the glyph at (x,y) on the given window. Glyphs are
integers at the interface, mapped to whatever the window-
port wants (symbol, font, color, attributes, ...there's
a 1-1 map between glyphs and distinct things on the map).
-- bkglyph is a background glyph for potential use by some
graphical or tiled environments to allow the depiction
to fall against a background consistent with the grid
around x,y. If bkglyph is NO_GLYPH, then the parameter
should be ignored (do nothing with it).
-- glyphmod provides extended information about the glyph
that window ports can use to enhance the display in
various ways.
unsigned int glyphmod[NUM_GLYPHMOD]
where:
glyphmod[GM_TTYCHAR] is the text characters associated
with the original NetHack display.
glyphmod[GM_FLAGS] are the special flags that denote
additional information that window
ports can use.
glyphmod[GM_COLOR] is the text character
color associated with the original
NetHack display.
Support for including the glyphmod info in the display glyph buffer
alongside the glyph itself was added and is the default operation.
That can be turned off by defining UNBUFFERED_GLYPHMOD at compile time.
With UNBUFFERED_GLYPHMOD operation, a call will be placed to map_glyphmod()
immediately prior to every print_glyph() call.
Infrastructure bits: Qt tombstone uses a short buffer; make sure that
the plname value fits instead of relying on snprintf() to truncate it.
A warning about gold, if any, was iffy but this should guarantee no
reason for future complaint. Year was safe but a compiler sensitive
to buffer overflows wouldn't know that.
Actual bugs: Qt used money in inventory for gold amount on tombstone;
that overlooks gold in containers and will be 0 by tombstone stage if
bones get saved. Year was recalculated from current date+time instead
of using the value that gets passed in--blindly flagging that variable
as UNUSED was a mistake.
Add some prototypes and add a new include to a couple of files that
use config.h instead of hack.h. So sys/unix/Makefile.src has been
changed slightly.
Add support for black&white ice (3.7.0 feature) similar to already
supported black&white lava: show in inverse video if it uses the
same character as floor (in the ice case; as water in the lava case).
Inverse for monster detection, black&white lava, and now black&white
ice was being done unconditionally but has been changed so that the
user can disable it by toggling the 'use_inverse' run-time option.
[Bug noticed in the process: if you move an inverse video cursor
onto inverse video detected monster/lava/ice (when doing farlook, for
instance), the cursor disappears. I'm not sure how to address that.]
The extra column that the core sometimes uses for bookkeeping and
that was drawn as stone until recently when changed to blank space
(an unintentional left margin) is now gone for both the tiles map
and the text map. It's still part of the internal data but the map
window width and the map rendering exclude it.
This was too easy. There are bound to be bugs lurking....
Revert the change from impossible() to panic() that I made recently
and add code to allow continuing to succeed. The raw_print issued
there doesn't seem to go anywhere, but the game switches from tiles
map to text map and runs sanely.
Also, there was a second place that initialized the text map to all
spaces rather than S_unexplored. Change it to call the routine that
was already fixed for this.
X11 was still initializing a blank map to 'stone' instead of to
'unexplored'. When the core started forcing 'unexplored' as part
of cls(), you could see the S_stone background show up and then be
overwritten with S_unexplored.
Also, X11 is [still] drawing unused column 0. That was also 'stone'
but has been changed to 'nothing' so is now blank for both tiles map
and text map (regardless of S_unexplored value). The extra useless
column doesn't look too bad normally but does if a vertical scroll
bar is added to support a clipped map.
Add 'tethered' and 'holding' as displable status conditions for X11.
For tty-style status, they're ordinary. For 'fancy status', tethered
is displayed in the 'trapped' slot (since they'll never both be shown
at the same time) and holding is displayed in the 'held' slot (same
situation).
It's more proof of concept for overloading of status conditions than
adding useful specific conditions. This was the third iteration; the
first two were either too fragile or used even more code. It could
probably be simplified by making some mutally exclusive conditions be
more like hunger and encumbrance instead of being distinct flags
X11's "fancy status" does its own highlighting that predates
STATUS_HILITES, showing things which have changed in inverse video
for a turn. However, it excluded conditions plus hunger and
encumbrance. Make it highlight those similarly when they come On
(and when they change from one non-blank state to another in the
case of hunger or encumbrance). There's no corresponding
unhighlight when going Off because they're blanked out instead.
I started out adding a few new status conditions to X11's "fancy status"
(the default) to gauge how difficult it was going to be. In the process
I found several latent bugs. After fixing those, I decided that the same
status conditions should be added to the alternate "tty-style status".
Lots more latent bugs, some of the same nature, others different. Things
spiraled until the code change is very substantial.
Code for the old two-line status is still present but I don't know how
to activate it. Unlike tty-style status, it composes and displays two
lines of text and isn't capable of highlighting portions of that text,
so it would be considered deprecated anyway.
All testing was done with the default NetHack.ad (except when turning
'fancy_status' off) so I don't know whether the new code might override
previously customizable status settings. I'm not sure whether this list
covers all the fixes....
both tty-style and fancy
add new status conditions 'grabbed' (by eel), 'held', 'trapped', and
'sinking-into-lava' (others will eventually follow); grab and lava
are on by default, the others have to be enabled via options
both tty-style (not handled) and fancy (faulty boolean logic)
polymorphing didn't change Xp to HD (silver lining: rehumanizing
didn't need to reverse it)
tty-style only; fancy was ok
force white text (on black background) instead of settling for gray
turning on optional showexp, showscore, and/or time worked but turning
them back off again didn't remove the relevant fields
polymorphing when showexp was on didn't suppress Exp-points
tty-style only; fancy uses different layout
condense conditions into simple left-to-right space separated list
instead of giving them specific locations and having gaps of blank
space for conditions that aren't in effect
tty-style only; not applicable for fancy (status_hilites not implemented)
all highlights stuck if 'statushilites' was reset to 0 to disable them
displaying anything with bold attribute stuck; it wouldn't revert to
normal text if a different highlight rule without bold was used for
subsequent updates
avoid inverting leading space that separates from preceding field when
highlighting with inverse video attribute
add support for 'dim' attribute using gray foreground (only viable
after the fix for white foreground)
fancy only
reorganize the field layout so that things line up nicely instead of
having columns with six, seven, or eight lines be spread over same
amount of vertical space
line up the values of the six characteristics, similar to how vertical
status works in curses: all two digits; when exceptional strength is
present, the '18' lines up and rest goes past implicit right margin
use status conditions as provided by core instead of duplicating them
(other fields still duplicate stuff done in botl.c); doing this
required forcing 'VIA_WINDOWPORT()' if built without STATUS_HILITES
Separate out the reformatting from other changes I'm working on
for X11 "fancy status". Splits a few wide lines but mostly just
switches to the X11 idiom of combining
XSetArg(arglist[argcount], ...);
argcount++;
onto one line:
XSetArg(arglist[argcount], ...); argcount++;
combine boolean and compound options into a single allopt[] array for
processing in options.c.
move the definitions of the options into new include/optlist.h file which
uses a set of macros to define them appropriately.
during compile of options.c each option described in include/optlist.h:
1. automatically results in a function prototype for an optfn called
optfn_xxxx (xxxx is the option name).
2. automatically results in an opt_xxxx enum value for referencing
its index throughout options.c (xxxx is the option name).
3. is used to initialize an element of the allopt[] array at index
opt_xxxx (xxxx is the option name) based on the settings in the
NHOPTB, NHOPTC, NHOPTP macros. Those macros only live during the
compilation of include/optlist.h.
each optfn_xxxx() function can be called with a req id of: do_init, do_set,
get_val or do_handler.
req do_init is called from options_init, and if initialization or memory
allocation or other initialization for that particular option is needed,
it can be done in response to the init req.
req do_set is called from parseoptions() for each option it encounters
and the optfn_xxxx() function is expected to react and set the option
based on the string values that parseoptions() passes to it.
req get_val expects each optfn_xxxx() function to write the current
option value into the buffer it is passed.
req do_handler is called during doset() operations in response to player
selections most likely from the 'O' option-setting menu, but only if the
option is identified as having do_handler support in the allopts[]
'has_handler' boolean flag. Not every optfn_xxxx() does.
function special_handling() is eliminated. It's code has been redistributed
to individual handler functions for the option or purpose that they serve.
moved reglyph_darkroom() function from options.c to display.c
Provide a way to communicate additional behaviors and/or appearances
desired from NetHack window port menus.
This is foundation work for changes to follow at a future date.
