o Add support for zlib compression via ZLIB_COMP in config.h (ZLIB_COMP
and COMPRESS are mutually exclusive).
o rlecomp and zerocomp are run time options available if RLECOMP and
ZEROCOMP are defined, but not turned on by default if either COMPRESS
or ZLIB_COMP are defined.
o Add information to the save file about internal compression options
used when writing the save file, particularly rlecomp and zerocomp
support.
o Automatically adjust rlecomp and zerocomp (if support compiled in)
when reading in an existing savefile that was saved with those options
turned on. Still allows writing out of savefile in preferred format.
o In order to support zlib and not conflict with compress and uncompress
routines there, the NetHack internal functions were changed to
nh_uncompress and nh_compress as done in the zlib contribution received
in 1999 from <Someone>.
I tagged the sources NETHACK_3_5_0_PREZLIB prior to applying these
changes.
Add the ability to select the windowtype on the command line on Unix using
a new -wwindowtype option. I had thought the proposed patch could core
dump, but the default windowtype selection occurs earlier and ensures
that raw_print will always work. So, the only problem with the proposed
patch was it didn't move the linux and sco special-case code until after
the selection was made. That special-case code really should be moved to
to wintty.c, IMO since it doesn't affect other windowtypes.
Use fqname buffer 1 for restoring the save file (just like save does when
creating it) so the value won't change out from under the code in unixmain.
- Also moved a tty-specific hack in docompress_file that was causing
the 'y' response to the "keep the save file" prompt to be echoed twice.
Introduce a new set of functions to manage delayed killers in the trunk, used
in addressing the various reports of delayed killer confusion. Since existing
delayed killers are related to player properties, the delayed killers are
keyed by uprop indexes. I did this to avoid adding yet another set of
similar identifiers.
- the new delayed_killer() is used for stoning, sliming, sickness, and
delayed self-genocide while polymorphed. Some other timed events don't
use it (and didn't use the old delayed_killer variable) because they
use a fixed message when the timeout occurs.
- A new data structure, struct kinfo, is used to track both delayed and
immediate killers. This encapsulates all the info involved with
identifying a killer. The structure contains a buffer, which subsumes the
old killer_buf and several other buffers that didn't/couldn't use killer_buf.
- the killer list is saved and restored as part of the game state.
- the special case of usick_cause was removed and a delayed killer list
entry is now used in its place
- common code dealing with (un)sliming is moved to a new make_slimed function
- attempted to update all make dependencies for new end.c -> lev.h
dependency, sorry if I messed any up
Some changes for standard C platforms, to avoid declaring errno explictly.
Such platforms should declare errno in errno.h, which is already included
in the files in question.

This patch:
- collects all context/tracking related fields from flags
into a new structure called "context."
It also adds the following to the new structure:
- stethoscope turn support
- victual support
- tin support
This is an initial round of SAFERHANGUP hangup changes. It introduces
SAFERHANGUP, provides the core framework, and enables it for UNIX.
Window-port changes are provided for win/tty, win/X11 and win/gnome. Qt
changes should be forthcoming after having Warwick look at them.
window.doc is updated so windowport maintainers have an clue what needs to
be done to support SAFERHANGUP.
Build and install the NetHack.ad file, and change the nethack.sh to append
the HACKDIR to the XUSERFILESEARCHPATH. This means users do not have to
do anything special to use the NetHack X11 resources, nor does it require
teaching nethack where the X11 app-defaults directory is. The change also
updates the X11 and linux doc files in a corresponding way.
- 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.
Finally got around to installing OpenBSD (rev 3.3) in a vmware partition.
Found that several #if BSD's were inappropriate for modern BSD's. Haven't
installed FreeBSD or NetBSD, but based on reading their man pages,
these changes are needed there too. Mostly due to POSIX time() signature.
I found that the setting of GUIDECMD sys/unix/Makefile.doc didn't cut
it with groff-1.18. Also, the command was duplicated in the rule to
generate Guidebook.txt.
to $(CC) by default.
Necessary for C++ builds where the C++ compiler driver must be used
to link, adding libraries that the C compiler driver does not know
about.
Make the instructions a bit more blow-by-blow. Re-order them so they
correspond to the Install.unx step numbers. Explicitly refer to
Install.unx and Install.X11 where appropriate.
<Someone> noticed that if one builds something in util and the required .o
files aren't already built in src, the .o gets placed in the wrong place.
Added the missing '-o $@' to the compilation command.
Reported on RH 7.2 and 8.0. Compilation failed because system headers that
needed _GNU_SOURCE on these Redhat versions got included before it was
defined. To ensure _GNU_SOURCE is defined, added an autodetect for it to
config1.h and removed the need to set it in unixres.c. __linux__ is also
checked elsewhere.
I'm updating the official binary to be built on a Redhat 8.0 system. This
should give the binary some legs if we take a while to get the next release out.
Instead of adding a new artifact.h to pray.c, remove the existing
ones from attrib.c, invent.c, and mkobj.c. This also updates the Unix
and VMS editions of Makefile.src; having stale dependencies in those
for other ports could cause unnecessary recompilation but can't break
anything in this case.
- incorporate a more portable way of calling the real getres*id() functions
on Linux platforms that uses the glibc interface rather than calling
the system call directly. The previous version didn't work on ia64 linux.
- fix destruction of primary game windows
- One, it makes the color of the cursor box dynamic (these are the gnmap.c
changes), based on hp/hpmax (continuous colors white -> yellow -> red ->
magenta rather than discrete like in Qt).
- Two, it adds a new window, NHW_WORN (all the other changes and new files
gnworn.[ch]), placed at the end of the first row, to the right of the status,
with tiles of all the items currently equiped. I had to change the spacing of
the first row (no longer homogeneous) to accomodate this, but I think it still
looks okay. It's mostly like the Qt version but the equiped items are in
slightly different places, and a bit more compactly (added quiver, ball/chain,
monster skin armor; see the definition in gnworn.c for the layout).
