Fix the issue where a hallucinatory monster name which begins with
a slash is having that stripped off as if it was a gendor and/or
personal-name flag.
The main issue was pronouns ignoring hallucination and this doesn't
attempt to address that.
Also, add new hallucinatory name "leathery-winged avian" which has
been lurking for a while.
All Is_*_level tests during early startup would test as true until
dungeon_topology was initialized in a new game or restored from
a save file. That could result in some unexpected code paths being
taken.
Region processing does a lot of looping--when there are actually
regions present--and calls functions in those loops which do more
looping of their own. This moves some of the simpler tests so that
they get done sooner and can avoid some of those function calls.
I was hoping that it would speed up the turn cycle on the Plane of
Fire where the spontaneous irregularly shaped fumaroles are composed
of a lot of small regions but I don't think there's any noticeable
difference.
In process of doing that, I discovered a bug (no doubt copy+paste
which escaped an intended update) with monster handling. The check
for whether a monster is entering a region depends upon whether the
hero is in that same region rather than whether the monster is
already inside. So a monster can enter a region--or have a moving
one enclose it--with impunity if the hero is already in that region.
Once the hero moves out of it, the monster will finally enter it.
The report mentioned whistles but I had forgotten all about them by
the time I tried to deal with musical instruments. Plain whistles
had deaf handling but magic whistles didn't.
Fixes#240
Monster versus monster (melee and throwing) didn't handle shades
(need silver or blessed weapon to take damage) or silver feedback
(extra info when silver-haters are hit).
I did a lot of test, revise, re-test but didn't always re-test
everything that had previously been tested, so bugs that I thought
were quashed might have crept in.
Now if a missile weapon "passes harmlessly through the shade" it
will continue on and maybe hit something else. (Regular misses
still stop at the missed target.)
A couple of minor ball&chain changes accidentally got included.
Menus with wide header or separator lines were rendered wide enough
to avoid wrapping those lines, but ones with narrow header/separators
and wide selectable entries were limited to half the display even
though lots of lines that would fit with full width were being wrapped.
Change the latter behavior.
Menus are right justified with the edge of the map when narrower than
it, left justified otherwise, and if the display is wider than the map,
they'll extend beyond its right edge. (That hasn't actually changed;
it's just that left-justification is more likely now that menus will
be wide enough to show wide inventory lines without wrapping.)
Get rid of my ridiculous hack to force wider menu for the 'symset'
and 'roguesymset' sub-menus of 'O' since it's no longer useful.
There's still room for improvement. If any lines need to be wrapped
despite using the full width, or perhaps are just a lot wider than
most of the entries, menu width could be narrowed to just enough for
'normal' lines to fit so that one or two really long entries don't
distort the menu. That's a bit more complicated than I want to deal
with right now. [If implemented, it would be relevant for tty too.]
Add
--showpaths
early option to show where NetHack is expecting to find certain files
without starting up a game. It exits afterwards.

Slippery fingers would transfer from bare hands to gloved hands if
you put gloves on. The reverse, transfering from gloves to bare
hands when taking gloves off, was already being prevented for
directly taking them off, but still allowed the slipperiness to
transfer when gloves were lost. This prevents putting on gloves
when fingers are slippery and attempts to handle cases where gloves
get unworn by ways other than 'T' (or 'R') or 'A'.
There's no slippery attribute for objects (way too much work for too
little value); slippery gloves is just the combination of wearing
gloves and having slippery fingers (which now has to have happened
while already wearing those gloves). This changes inventory to use
"(being worn; slippery)" when applicable and much of the patch deals
with funnelling Glib changes through new make_glib() to try to make
sure that persistent inventory adds or removes "; slippery" right
away when changes happen.
If gloves are taken off involuntarily (shapechange to a form that
can't wear them, destruction via scroll of destroy armor or monster
spell of same or via overenchantment, theft), slippery fingers ends
right away instead of the usual few turns later.
