This fixes the wizkit so that if someone wishes for a non-object such as
a trap, not only is no message printed, but we don't try to create anything.
Incidentally, if you have two bad wizkit items in a row, you get told to hit
space to continue, then you can hit space, then the error message for the
second bad item is printed on the same line as the first hit space message.
(I haven't tried to fix that.)
- candles, et al, light via catch_lit
- non-weapons can be damaged
- only flammable items can be damaged, previously SILVER objects, for example,
would get a message, but add_erosion_words wouldn't display a damage word
- can't track burnt food, put this in the "seems" case too
- PLASTIC items are is_flammable, which is appropriate for all current uses
- paper gets destroyed (special artifacts excepted by earlier check)
- a cursed potion now spills even if not dipping weapons
- charge for damaging unpaid objects this way
- still very hard to destroy PYEC this way
- Pat noticed that makedefs -z makes both vis_tab.[ch], but they could be
built by two makes via make -j, causing corruption
- make -j at top level failed for similar reasons, added several
dependencies to ensure a valid ordering
- these changes will cause extra things to be built if you "make"
individual targets at the top level, but have little effect it you're a
real power user and "make" the actual target in the right directory
- a case missed by the earlier lava patch, if you enter the lava while
mounted, your steed would be unaffected if you were lifesaved
- fix by making more code shared with the is_pool case
This patch implements Michael's idea to have a "NetHack mode" for
keypresses. It only does the Alt-keys now, but it should be easy
to extend to pressing space in dialogs; I left that out as we still
have to agree on a new dialog look.
The setting that you choose from the menu is stored in the registry.
Reading and writing the registry is done on init_nhwindows and
exit_nhwindows; there also is a menu item to delete the registry
settings (which makes sure they are not stored again this session.)
This provides a framework for future registry settings.
Also,
Alt-tab should show the app title when a menu or text window is up.
I left the app title as it was, although I still favour "Graphical
Version" or "With Graphics"; Anyway, that's only one resource string.

Here's a patch that checks whether the common control
library is available and up-to-date
[slightly modified from <Someone>'s version to reduce
indentation one level, and to fix wrap-around
in the patch]
Here's the gcc makefile. I also cleaned up the batch file a
little and added instructions to install.nt.
I copied most of the items from the existing Makefiles,
including the 32x32 tile support, even though that is not
available. This way comparing the makefiles is easiest :-)
(and panic() which calls done())
This uses the flag that <Someone> recently added.
At least one crash in the past was caused by
? -> panic() -> done(11) -> * vision_recalc(2) -> newsym() -> crash!
if u.ux and u.uy are 0
Addresses <Someone>'s point that ALT-F4 in game-over, still brings up the
save/quit/cancel dialog box. This makes ALT-F4 equivalent to quitting
without any further disclosure/windows, but makes sure the game exits
properly so it will save the bones and the record file. I also cleaned
up the mhrip.c to use macros for all magic numbers.
- switch aobjnam() to use cxname, not xname
- update Tobjnam() comment, since it can still use xname w/o confusion
A specific case that's fixed: You begin bashing monsters with your corpse.
The Kop Kaptain's rubber hose shatters from the force of your blow!
Rubber hoses are an individual exception that would need to be dealt
with explicitly, since the PLASTIC they're made of is floppy rather
than rigid as for other PLASTIC items.

- use uwep's oc_wldam value, not chest's oc_wldam value, for computing chance.
oc_wldam has always been 0 for all containers
- the code was broken for a long time, but was masked by the off-by-1 error
in checking the chance, allowing a 1% chance of forcing
- the result is that forcing locks is a lot easier
Add option windowcolors to control foreground/background
color of menu, message, status, and text windows.
(foreground color is the text color).
The value of the colors is window port specific, the
core code handles the storing of the strings only.
