README - add VMS back as a tested platform; thanks KevinS!
dat/history - add VMS update, remove trailing whitespace, two spaces;
instead of just one (recently added stuff) for sentence separation;
sys/vms/Install.vms - minimal update;
Files - reformat the win32 project section to fit within 80 columns.
Replace several 'foo = alloc(strlen(bar)+1), strcpy(foo,bar)' sequences
with 'foo = dupstr(bar)' calls.
Change 'free(foo)' into 'free((genericptr_t) foo)' to possibly pacify
'lint' and/or really old compilers.
Add braces around 'if something;' when 'else { otherwise; }' has braces.
Simplify option value formatting for 'sortloot'.
Tell git to ignore the presence of the heaputil program in util/.
(It lives in NHinternal/devteam/util/heaputil.c but working with it
from there is inconvenient.)
Free sysopt.shellers and sysopt.explorers when releasing the memory used
for other sysopt fields.
Also some formatting stuff since sys.c was previously untouched.
If makedefs.c is compiled with MONITOR_HEAP defined, attempted calls to
free() resulted in link failure. Since makedefs doesn't use alloc(),
call free() directly instead of redirecting to nhfree().
Also some assorted reformatting....
This one has a couple of code changes included, but they shouldn't
produce any change in game play. If anyone adds a new shirt or shield
they'll have to update the corresponding foo_on() and foo_off() routines
to avoid an 'impossible' when putting on or taking off the new item(s),
the same situation as already happens for other subclasses of armor.
The automated reformatting put a space in casts of the form
'(type)(expression)', yielding '(type) (expression)', but it didn't
do that for '(typedef)(expression)'. There are lots of instances of
'(boolean)(expression)'; (uchar) and (xchar) also occur. I haven't
noticed other types, but I haven't looked in very many files yet.
Plus a modest amount (really!) of reformatting.
Also got rid of 'copy_of()' since dupstr() does the same thing [except
for the 'treat Null as ""' part; when needed, that can be done in the
call: dupstr(!str ? "" : str)].
Explicitly combine adjacent string literals so that pre-ANSI compilers
still have a chance to compile the code. I thought these had already
been dealt with, but I kept stumbling across them while reformatting,
so am trying to get them all out of the way now.
Fixing up mis-indented block comments, but hit some files that hadn't
had the earlier mixture of tab replacement, etc, so it's bigger than I
expected. If I get to it, they'll be another round of this tomorrow.
The intended change was that you'd get an increase to max energy if
current was sufficiently close to max rather than only when it was
already at max. It wasn't intended that you'd fail to have current
boosted all the way to max in the case where it wasn't sufficiently
close. That's fixed here.
Last few && or || followed by end-of-line comments, plus tab replacement
and 'return' parentheses. Not as many of those; some of these files had
already had that done.
Also, tweaked non-cursed scroll of charging read while confused to be a
tiny bit more effective.
To do: find and fix block comments that immediately follow a line with
an end-of-line comment and got misindented to line up with that comment.
The corridors used to head towards the goal using the straightest
possible line, often making a zig-zag beeline. Allow some slight variance,
sometimes going straight instead of turning, reducing the predictability,
and making those monotonously turning corridors less likely.
While the topic of strprepend() is current, make good use of it.
Simplify code which inserts "the Nth " in front of "<arrow,&c>".
I'm pretty sure there are one or two other places where I assumed that
the outpuf of xname() was a char array which is BUFSZ in length rather
than BUFSZ-PREFIX, and reused the buffer, but I don't know where they
occur. (BUFSZ-PREFIX is still big enough to hold most things, so it
might not lead to trouble.)
