People have been wondering how to change the tiles on the X11
version, and the old default of NetHack-specific binary tile data
isn't directly editable with image editing tools.
Also show in the #version info if xpm and graphic rip are enabled.
On Windows, if you build without STATUS_HILITES defined,
you'll be greeted by the following barrage of errors when
you start the game.
On Windows, use makedefs to detect that STATUS_HILITES
isn't defined, and comment out the offending lines in
the sample config file.

mons[].difficulty takes over for monstr[]
Invoking "makedefs -m" gives a deprecation message; it is also included
in the (now mostly empty) monstr.c.
Ports should now remove "makedefs -m" from their build procedures but this
commit does not include that change.

Incorporate some git information into NetHack so that it
is potentially visible to a player. That's useful when
collecting details about the version that they are
running and, if the gitinfo is present, it can tie the
code to a specific git commit in the repository.
This modifies 'makedefs -v' to check for the presence of a data file
called dat/gitinfo.txt and if it is there, parse out its
contents, then write additional lines to include/date.h beyond
what 'makedefs -v' was previously putting in there, similar to
this sample:
#define NETHACK_GIT_SHA "0c84e564c78e2024e562d39539376ce2e21eec8e"
#define NETHACK_GIT_BRANCH "NetHack-3.6.0"
The contents of an appropriate dat/gitinfo.txt are as follows,
and trailing/leading whitespace is not significant:
githash = 0c84e564c78e2024e562d39539376ce2e21eec8e
gitbranch = NetHack-3.6.0
It also adjusts the contents of the 'v' version information to
include the additional git info when available.
Also adds some hooks DEVEL/hooksdir and a perl file to DEVEL
for simplifying and automating the deposit of dat/gitinfo.txt
so that it generally reflects the most current git commit.
DEVEL/gitinfo.pl can be used to build dat/gitinfo.txt at any
time without doing a commit, merge, or checkout.
perl DEVEL/gitinfo.pl
command line --version and -version support
To complement the extra information being provided in the
version by the 'v' command, this also adds support for the
following new command line arguments:
--version
-version Output the NetHack version string then exit.
--version:paste Output the NetHack version string and also copy it to
-version:paste the platform's paste buffer for insertion somewhere,
then exit.
If the paste variation of -version is requested on a platform that
hasn't incorporated any support for the capability, it will deliver
the version info then an error message, prior to exiting.
To support the extended -version:paste variation, a port needs to:
- provide a port-specific routine to perform
the paste buffer copy in a port code file.
- #define RUNTIME_PASTEBUF_SUPPORT in the include/portconf.h header file.
--skeleton--
void port_insert_pastebuf(buf)
char *buf;
{
/* insert code to copy the version info from buf into
platform's paste buffer in a supported way */
}
macosx and Windows have both added support for RUNTIME_PASTEBUF_SUPPORT
Apply user-contributed patch to make do_vision() handle FILE_PREFIX
correctly. It was putting that value into the filename buffer, then
overwriting it with the ordinary filename instead of appending.
Deletion of just-made vis_tab.h when creation of vis_tab.c fails would
have failed too if FILE_PREFIX had been working.
The patch was against 3.4.3 and didn't apply cleanly to current code,
but it is a staightforward fix, although the file deletion case was
buggy (failed to clear "vis_tab.c" from buffer before reconstructing
"vis_tab.h" via appending stuff). FILE_PREFIX seems to be Amiga-only
so I've only tested the usual case where it isn't defined.
I've sometimes seen
, and basic NetHack features.
as the last line of the features section from '#version'. I thought
it was due to the way feature phrases were split into individual words
by makedefs, but it turned out to be due to inserting pattern matching
method at run-time. That dynamic options update had a second problem:
if the final phrase "and basic NetHack features" was split across two
lines, the run-time substitution didn't find it and the pattern matching
entry ended up being left out. This fixes both problems, but if future
dynamic entries become more complex, the phrase-splitting/word-wrapping
being done by makedefs may need to be moved into nethack.
Also, add entries for XLOGFILE and PANICLOG to makedefs' options and
re-order a couple of existing ones alphabetically (a failry hopeless
endeavor).
Having selectable base indexes for the monster list doesn't seem
likely to be needed in the future any more, now that the code for
the monster list is stable. Additionally, the functionality in
question has bitrotted heavily (e.g. many "loops over all
permonsts" start at a hardcoded 0, which wouldn't work with a
1-indexed monster list). As a result, removing the relevant code
in makedefs makes it clearer what can and can't be assumed about
the code, reducing the risk of bugs in the future.
Thanks to FIQ for mentioning that this could be an issue.
This is from the pull request for the assertion failure fix. It
did not mention how to reproduce the assertion failure, just added
casts to a bunch of isspace/isprint/tolower calls that didn't already
have such.
I removed an obsolete change for win/tty/topl.c and changed the
win/win32/mswproc.c code to avoid using an expression with side-effects
(*colorstring++) in calls to tolower() in case someone overrides that
with a macro which evaluates its argument more than once as some pre-
ANSI ones used to do. Not tested, might have typos....
sys/wince/*.c still needs similar casts.
