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.
When panictrace feedback occurs due to catching a signal rather
than controlled panic, the backtrace is useless when running the
curses interface unless the terminal gets reset first. Let's
just hope that the signal triggering a panictrace doesn't occur
while resetting the terminal.
Under curses interface, provide a way to get a little more space
for perm_invent without turning off windowborders entirely.
Possible 'windowborders' values:
0 = no borders, max screen space available for useful info
1 = full borders, two lines and two columns wasted for each window
2 = contingent borders, show if screen is big enough, else hide
New:
3 = as 1 except no borders for perm_invent window
4 = as 2 except never borders for perm_invent window
3 and 4 let the map, message, and status windows have borders while
providing two extra lines and two extra columns on each line for
persistent inventory. It's not much but better than nothing when
borders are enabled.
Redo the fake ESC handling for curses' wgetnstr() so that it
applies to all popup prompts rather than just to "Who are you?",
in case the player sets the 'popup_dialog' option.
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.
Noticed when implementing restore-via-menu for curses a couple
of days ago: The "Who are you?" prompt wouldn't let me cancel
out via <escape>. I created a character named '\033' which was
displayed as "^[" during play and produced a save file shown by
'ls' as "501?.Z".
To fix this properly, we will need to replace use of wgetnstr()
with something of our own. That's more work than I feel like
tackling. This fakes ESC handling if the player is willing to
type <escape><return> rather than just <escape> when terminating
the prompt.
Clone the tty SELECTSAVED code in curses. If you would be getting
the "who are you?" prompt (perhaps via 'nethack -u player') and
you have at least one save file, you'll get a menu of save files
(plus entries for 'new game' and 'quit') to choose from. Requires
'#define SELECTDSAVED' at build time (only ntconf.h does that by
default) and when present, can be disabled by setting 'selectsaved'
to False in NETHACKOPTIONS or .nethackrc.
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.
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.
Like lava when that looks the same as water with color Off, render ice
in inverse video if it looks the same as the floor of a room. (I tried
bold first but the result didn't look very good.)
Done for tty and curses; others may want to follow suit.
groundwork only - window port interface change
This changes the last parameter for add_menu() from a boolean
to an unsigned int, to allow additional itemflags in future
beyond just the "preselected" that the original boolean offered.
There shouldn't be any functionality changes with this groundwork-only
change, and if there are it is unintentional and should be reported.
Submitted for 3.7.0; all but one also apply to 3.6.3.
I rewrote the curses terminal-too-small message instead of just
fixing the spelling of "minumum".
Performance profiling showed that multiple strcmpi() calls were
occurring each and every time a character was going to the map.
This update:
- honors the WC_COLOR capability
- It allows a window-port to control individual color availability should the window-port wish to do so.
- Makes checking on the individual colors for the active window-port is a straightforward table lookup at the CLR_ offset.
iflags.use_color remains a master on/off switch for use of color, regardless of the capability
compiled into the game (default TRUE).
The has_color() routine, which is now a shared routine in src/windows.c, could likely be made
into a simple macro to eliminate the function call, but this update does not go that far.
This hits a lot of port files due to the window-port interface change, mostly cookie-cutter.
This time I'm putting things in as-is before making a few tweaks.
The pull request was three or four separate changes. I used the
patch instead so they've been collected into one commit.
Highlighting for monsters shown due to extended monster detection and
for lava shown in black and white didn't work because that keys off
of 'iflags.use_inverse' (actually a macro for 'iflags.wc_inverse') and
curses wasn't enabling that window-capability option. To be fair, it
was probably unconditional at the time the curses interface was first
developed. It checked for whether a monster was supposed to be drawn
with inverse highlighting but wouldn't draw it that way because the
flag was always false. Inverse b&w lava is relatively new and curses
hadn't been taught about it.
Various other things such as pets (if hilite_pet is on) and object
piles (if hilite_pile is on) get highlighted with inverse video when
use_color is off, regardless of whether use_inverse is on or off.
That's probably a bug.
Fixes#230
Incorporate github pull request #230, support for DECgraphics-style
line drawing in the curses interface. I've rewritten the
curses_convert_glyph() part so that it doesn't require C99 and
doesn't reinitialize its pair of arrays for every character written
to the map. The DECgraphics conversion is now a straight char for
char one, DEC line drawing code to ACS, without regard to what map
symbol is intended or what 'cursesgraphics' uses for that symbol.
Fully support the mouse_support option for curses, via 'O' as well as
via config file. At the moment, mouse_support:1 and mouse_support:2
are equivalent.
Also, fix the screen-to-map coordinate translation. When the mouse
is active and over the map, the pointer's cursor becomes a cross-hair
(may very by platform) and the character cell chosen for a click
seems to be a few pixels to the right of the center of the '+'.
Support user's terminal settings for erase char and for kill char.
Erase char is typically <delete> or <backspace>, both of which are
already explicitly handled so probably no effect there. Kill char
(generally ^U these days) will be honored unless it is a printable
character (don't know whether there are any troglodytes out there
who still use '@' for that...). The current handling for ESC works
the same if there is any input to kill, but yields 'cancelled' when
there isn't.
That's for message window getline(), which operates char-by-char.
The popup getline() uses a curses routine to get an entire string
and already honors kill char but treats ESC as input of ^[.
Fixes#197Fixes#195
Add a call to nonl() to tell curses not to convert carriage return (^M)
to newline. Line input accepts both ^J and ^M as end of line/end of
input, but the core's command processing treats ^M as "unknown command"
(by default; someone could use the BIND option to assign some command
to that character). The end result is that accidentally pressing the
<return> or <enter> key (or Ctrl+M key combination) won't make the hero
run towards the bottom of the screen as if the user had typed ^J. The
curses docs also claim that it allows more optimization during screen
updating by making ^J work as plain linefeed rather than ^M^J newline.
The tty interface can achieve this (the 'do not convert ^M to ^J part',
not the 'more optimization' part) by issuing the command 'stty -icrnl'
(on Unix or sufficiently Unix-like system) prior to running nethack,
but that has no effect when using the curses interface (at least with
ncurses on OSX where I've tested it).
A better fix would be to look up the current terminal settings at
program startup and only call nonl() if -crnl was in effect so that
curses and tty would behave the same in this regard, but curses is
supposed to let us avoid those sorts of messy details....
Fixes#193
Under curses interface, make characters which are both entry selectors
and menu commands function as a selector. Needed to support using ':'
to look inside a container when applying/looting it via menu, instead
of performing a menu search operation. (There was another case like
this but I can't remember what the circumstances are. The fix is
general enough to cover it, whatever it is.)
For menus which don't have ':' as a choice, make sure search prompt
doesn't offer garbage default input when built with EDIT_GETLIN.
Bug? If player has 'popup_dialog' option On, EDIT_GETLIN is ignored.
Plain curses I/O doesn't seem to offer a way to implement it.
