I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!

Adjust the code and the command line Makefile so that
you no longer have to choose whether to build the tty
version NetHack.exe, or the gui version NetHackW.exe.
Both will now be built in a single 'nmake install' pass.

In order to get level file locking correctly again post 3.4.3
with the newer compilers for windows, I had to funnel close()
calls to an intercepting routine.
I had two choices:
1. Surround every close() in at least 9 source files with messy:
#ifdef WIN32
nhclose(fd);
#else
close(fd);
#endif
OR
2. Replace every close() with nhclose() and
deal with the special code in the nhclose()
version for windows, while just calling
close() for other platforms (in files.c).
It is also possible, although not done in this commit,
to
#define nhclose(fd) close(fd)
in a header file for non-windows, rather than funnel
though a real nhclose() function in files.c.
This brings things much closer to correct operation (I hope).
- The shift to only moving the cursor on input (<Someone>'s
changes) had a lot of complications, among them was
that sometimes, there is no more input. When the program was
exiting, or bombing the cursor synch never got done, so the
final messages could end up strewn any place the cursor
happened to be dwelling.
- There were two competing output systems in use: the
wintty stuff for the game, and the msmsg and error stuff
used by the sys/share/pcsys, sys/share/pctty, and
sys/share/pcunix routines. Those were meant to mimic
output to stdout, where stuff just got sent to a sequential
display. Over time, there were calls mixed in that depended
on the cursor tracked stuff from the core game, so you
really couldn't be sure where things were going to display.
It wasn't as much of an issue before, because the cursor
really did get moved around as expected. Everything
now ends up in the same output system.
- I even found a use of the real putchar() because
sys/share/pcunix didn't #include wintty.h the same
as the other files, and the macro never got defined.
Who knows where that character was being put -
the game certainly couldn't track it.
While everything I knew to be wrong yesterday is
now working, there may be some other glitches
lurking that I haven't discovered yet.
Please: test, test, test.
1. Switch to low-level console routines for performance improvements.
2. Instead of moving the cursor around like a real tty, just track the
destination coordinates of where the cursor should be, and
defer the movement until user input is expected.
Credit to <Someone> for #2.
a few plines that were without punctuation. There may be more non-DEBUG
pline or pline-like things that are still missing punctuation. They are
almost impossible to find after the fact, since they could be anywhere,
including in various dat files and functions that pass strings and formats
into other functions that call pline.
This was a tricky one. While the error was ultimately because
he was specifying a non-existant directory in defaults.nh, the
error message lead me to the wrong area until I traced through
with a debugger.
It turns out that an fqn buffer was being re-used before it
was finished being used with the original information in
sys/share/pcunix.c, so the error message listed the
wrong file!
This adds one more buffer and fixes the problem.
Note that it could only affect plaforms with
PREFIXES_IN_USE defined (NOCWD_ASSUMPTIONS
or VAR_PLAYGROUND)
It also alters the WIN32 error message to give them a
hint as to what the problem might be.

Add absent prototypes to some core routines.
Also add some port function() to function(void) in some win32 routines.
Also updates the Borland C Makefile for win32.
