I think this was From a bug report, but I cannot find the report
anymore. Perhaps I noticed it while doing something else. In any case,
every turn you're engulfed in, say, a dust vortex wearing the Eyes of the
Overworld, you get the "can't see"/"vision clears" message pair. This
patch modifies the behavior to only display this the first turn. Other code,
partially related to B01003, already deals with the puton-remove cases.
Since B01003 is only in the trunk, this fix is also only in the trunk.
Correct the unreachable "snores" message From a bug report.
Applied to trunk only in hopes that beta8 might be the last for 3.4.2.
The fixes entry is generic since I'm sure other similar messages will be fixed.
- set correct checkmark on "Lock Windows" menu item on startup
- redraw message window on resizing (it does not update properly otherwise)
- fixed copy/paste error in read registry settings function
- fix ring of protection from shape changers causing
real monster to be created.
- add ability to get the character class monster from
genus() or the species.
- use the character class monster when animating
guardian corpses.
Also a related bug: the guard against animating a unique
monster via tossing a statue onto a statue trap location, was
causing stone to flesh to silently ignore any statue of a unique
monster which seemed very uncharacteristic of the spell.
After this patch, statues of quest guardians and statues of
unique monsters will animate as shape-shifters posing as those
monsters, not the monsters themselves.
Digging a pit in the location where you're stuck should always free you.
This would not occur if you used a wand of digging to do the digging,
especially if you did so while levitating.

No objections were heard to this previously circulated

Guard against the pathological cases of ", <anything>" and
" called <anything>" strings that a user could type in to indirectly
trigger impossible(). Now they'll yield "no info about such things".
From newsgroup discussion: prevent monsters from level teleporting
to Moloch's Sanctum level unless the invocation ritual has already made it
accessible (same restriction player's character already has). Otherwise a
monster could pick up one of the invocation items and effectively take it
into limbo, making it become impossible for the player to reach that level.
Back in April, <Someone> reported to the list that when you are
polymorphed into a mimic and #monster, and return to human form while still
mimicing, your appearance does not change. This was due to a change
between 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 that caused all mimicing to go thru one case and
the code to change appearance was actually never executed.
Several bug reports have been filed regarding the use of attached iron balls to
move in ways that are otherwise disallowed: moving diagonally from a
doorway, moving through boulders, squeezing through small openings, passing
over traps and diagonally between boulders on sokoban levels. Modified
bhit to deal with this. All these cases now cause the iron ball to stop if
appropriate for your form, level of burden, and so on. Since both boulders
and iron balls are big, boulders now always stop thrown iron balls,
even if not attached. Since iron balls don't cause any damage as they pull
you along, I didn't add any damage for the new "jerks to a halt" cases.
On some MSDOS ports, STATIC_OVL doesn't equate
to static, so taking_off in do_wear.c conflicts with the
one in invent.c in those environments. Somebody
out there might wish to try and build the 16 port and
tune it to work properly someday.

Undo the change to test_move and instead, don't even test moving in diagonals.
This opens the possibility for approximating the diagonal while polymorphed
into a grid bug in the future.
the cmdassist message shows all the valid directions even if you are
polymorphed into a grid bug. I noticed this when I typed a diagonal
direction as a grid bug and got the dialog, telling me the key I just typed
was valid, but it wasn't. Limit the keys to those valid for grid bugs.
Since only developers know that "13" is EACCES, try to include the text
message. I'm not 100% sure the ifdefs are complete, but it can be tweaked
as needed. This was the only common message in files.c that included errno
so it's the only one I changed. Of course, "13" is only one of several
possible errno values that might reasonably show up here.
The following files are gone (sys\wince):
- stat.h (moved to ceinc\sys\stat.h)
- fcntl.h (moved to ceinc\fcntl.h)
- errno.h (moved to ceinc\errno.h)
- assert.h (moved to ceinc\assert.h)
The following files were added:
- mhtxtbuf.c
- mhtxtbuf.h
- menubar.uu
- ceinc
- ceinc\sys
- ceinc\fcntl.h
- ceinc\errno.h
- ceinc\assert.h
- ceinc\sys\stat.h
CE notes:
Fixes:
- added new options "wraptext", "fullscreen" and "softkeyboard"
- CE341-1 fix ("wraptext" option)
- hide map scrollbars on Smartphone
- added View->Options menu
- PocketPC: added "Fit to screen" and "Show/Hide keypad" icons
on the menu bar
- Smartphone: '<', '>' keys were mapped incorrectly
- build: use source files directly from <buildroot>\sys\wince instead of
copying them to <buildroot>\wince\
- If you have Gnome installed on solaris, the GETRES support wouldn't build.
I don't have access to a solaris system with Gnome installed, but hacked
unixconf.h to force the GETRES code itself to be compiled. So, I believe the
unixres.c change will work for folks really using Gnome on Solaris.
Whether the rest of the gnome code will build there is beyond me.
- I accidentally left TIMED_DELAY defined and the Solaris build failed.
While solaris has usleep(), this is not part of SVR4 as far as I can tell.
But, SysV does have poll, so I implemented msleep() for SysV systems in
terms of poll. So, you can now define TIMED_DELAY on any SYSV build.
<Someone> thought the incorrect grammar in the messages was due to scatter()
changing the quan of treefruit, but in fact, it was due to treefruit
referring to the wrong object (there is also a theoretical possibility that
treefruit can refer to a merged object with the wrong count). Create a temp
object for use in the message to avoid these possibilities.

Add missing handling for trapped containers and for Schroedinger's Cat
to the #tip command. Also, after tipping out the contents of a cursed bag
of holding, its weight would still reflect any items destroyed during the
process.
Releasing Schroedinger's Cat from a box which is being carried would
place the monster at the coordinates of wherever the box was last on the
floor instead of adjacent to the current location.
Also, the message sequence
The housecat inside the box is still alive!
The large box is empty.
seemed a little strange. This makes it say "is now empty" when a cat has
just been released.

add freehand() check to able_to_loot()
