Warwick's plname files.c addition broke the
build on both win32 and CE because NAMES_MAX
wasn't defined.
In win32 it was defined in limits.h, but only
when _POSIX_ was defined.
In CE it just didn't exist in any of the
header files. Since it was also complaining
about strdup(), I #ifdef'd Warwick's code out
under CE.
Move get_saved_games() functionality to files.c
Use moved get_saved_games() functionality in Qt windowport.
[also some non-enabled perminv code in Qt windowport]
Allow single character variations in player names
to remain unique in file names by encoding rather
than substituting.
"plnam one", "plnam_one", and "plnam~one" at the
"Who are you?" prompt get unique filenames after this patch.
Implement a suggestion by <Someone> that turns spent in
"hungry" state exercise wisdom for monk characters; also make
turns spent in "satiated" state abuse it instead.
for now at least, until there is more time to look into it.

Pat forwarded a message from the newsgroup in March that the town guards
enforce rules even outside the town proper. Fix: On room-based town levels,
check if the location is in a room containing subrooms (roomno will often
have a subroom id instead). On the other levels (e.g. minetn-5), there are
no subrooms, so the whole level is fair game. Currently, this is valid.
If fancier towns are added in the future, more flags or use of regions may
be required to tell where the town border actually is. These checks are done
in a new in_town function.
Paper golems take 100% damage in a fire trap. Straw is very flammable
unless tightly packed, but straw golems have a lot of surface area, so give
them 50% damage.
On mazelike levels, containers had to be listed before their objects. But,
for roomfilled levels, containers had to be listed _after_ the objects. All
our current levels that use containers with objects are mazelike, so I
changed the room behavior, updating the comment in lev_comp.y to match.
Other items/monsters are still processed in reverse on roomfilled special
levels, but I think this is OK.

Another try.

Good point. I think this may have been what was intended, but it's
been like this for quite a while.

I can accept that losing gold into a fountain recharges it to make it

_does_ seem wrong is that receiving a warning about a Minetown
fountain prevents finding gems and gold there.
This does not fix a reported bug where you
can't attack a hidden creature that is
co-located with a boulder, but it might
assist the player in understanding what is
going on.
<Someone> reported that after an uncontrolled teleport due to eating a
leprechaun, his leashed pet was still leashed until he took one more step.
The usual approach which included disallowing the teleport seemed wrong in
this case, so I put in an abbreviated version that does its checks but does
not disallow the teleport. The pet teleports with you in the same cases as
other teleports, but when it doesn't, the leash snaps loose.
<Someone> (and later <Someone>) reported along with several other
things of a dwarf that stood in place and switched between his pick-axe and
broadsword on successive turns. Fixed by bringing the logic in the two
cases in line. The code now prefers to leave the hostile dwarf with a weapon.
Now that the in_use flag is set for potions being quaffed, use the in_use
flag in general in destroy_item to avoid destroying the in use object, on
the assumption that the caller will call useup when finished. There are a
few places that set then unset in_use, but these don't currently result in
a call to destroy_item. The current_wand hack was not removed, since its
logic appears to allow destroy_item to still destroy the item.
Provide a chance for the player to name a polymorph potion if you dip
something into it and nothing happens.
Also fix several places in dipping and drinking potions where the HUP cheat
would allow you to use the potion a 2nd time, made more important since
the polymorph sequence includes what is currently a unique message.
When using a fountain or throne, getting a --More-- prompt
usually means that you're about to be told that it has just dried
up or vanished. But since that topology change didn't occur until
after the message, players could cheat by forcing SIGHUP instead
of answering the prompt; the resulting save file would retain the
original topology. So change the dungeon prior to telling the user
about it.
The `fixes' entry possibly belongs in the tty-specific category
but since the change is to core code I put it in the general section.
The spellcasting code stopped counting a spell class's skill
exercise once that reached expert, so the only way that it could
end up being flagged as having reached maximum in the #enhance
feedback would be if it had already received enough exercise to
reach the hypothetical level beyond expert while it was still at
skilled or less.
It also didn't count the exercise if you were restricted in
the spell class, but that wasn't necessary because becoming
unrestricted--which I don't think is even possible for spells at
present--resets the counter back to 0 to discard any exercise
achieved while ineligible.
Fix the problem [reported in the newsgroup and forwarded by <Someone>]
of blessed potions of gain level having the possibility of reducing
your experience points if you were already level 30. The random XP
value that averages "half way to next level" could be less than your
current experience if you had gotten to level 30 via such a blessed
potion or had drunk at least one of same since reaching that level.
This didn't really make any difference to game play since you weren't
losing any levels, HP, mana, or score, but it was visible to users who
enable the `showexp' option.
Fixes 2 bugs:
1) an impossible() could occur if you applied a lance against a long worm
because the code uses thitmonst to do the hitting, but didn't set bhitpos,
which is required before calling thitmonst.
Add the missing assignment.
2) applying a lance would never mark a knight as a caitiff. Added a new
check_caitiff function and called it from the 2 existing checks and in
the lance code.

This adds a further throttle to chain summoning. Monsters can only summon
spellcasting nasties if the nasties are lower level than the summoner, which
makes infinite chains impossible (as long as the player figures out which
monster to kill first).
<Someone> reported that kicking [unlike hitting] an unseen monster
to death would leave an "I" on the screen. This was due to a missing
DEADMONSTER check. I also noticed that code to avoid leaving an extra "I"
behind when a monster jumps of of the way was only half right, resulting in
an extra "I" anyway.
While riding, your speed was calculated using the steeds speed only when
moving multi locations. So, if you were walking step by step, it would use
your speed instead. Changed this to use the steed's speed any time actual
movement occurs.
If you cast stone to flesh on a statue on a location containing a monster,
the statue would be turned into a corpse and the contents lost. This
didn't seem to be appropriate for the spell. Now the contents spill out.
<Someone> reported that a wand of cancellation would ignore Unchanging,
noting the case of cancelling yourself while polymorphed into a stone golem.
He thought the wand should win, killing the player. I felt otherwise,
since the case he specified passes the flag allow_cancel_kill == FALSE.
I saw no straight-forward way to insert the message earlier in the
sequence, so... I reasoned that you might not yet have a good grasp and
not be able to continue holding the object when reverting form. So, I made
this into a drop case and made the drop message a rare past tense message.
Past tense is still OK for the other drop cases.
While testing this, I noticed you'd keep stealing even after reverting
form. Added code to stop this. Finally, there was a missing MON_NOWEP
call in the stealing code, added it.

From the newsgroup a while back - special levels w/o a specific alignment
should inherit their alignment from the dungeon. Some places explicitly
checked the dungeon if the level alignment wasn't set, at least one did not.
<Someone> reported (in April) that eating cursed tripe, for example, did
not violate vegetarian conduct. This patch moves the various conduct
checks into common code that is executed before the rotten state of food is
determined.
