- NHW_BASE / NHW_OVER collided with NHW_PERMINVENT=6; renumber off NHW_LAST_TYPE.
- GlyphToIcon used > 10000 instead of >=.
- make_menu_items sized array by sizeof(amii_menu_item) instead of menu_item.
- DoMenuScroll could deref NULL amip on SELECTUP.
- get_nhuuid uses ISAAC64 rn2() instead of hand-rolled LCG.
- fopenp's bound check fired one byte too late.
- winami.p had stale signatures for amii_end_menu, amii_select_menu, amii_suspend_nhwindows.
All the files in outdated are mostly source as they were prior to
the move to the outdated part of the NetHack tree. They are left
there in case somone wants to try to resurrect a port.
They are not meant to be compiled, or used as-is.
A remnant hard-coded 370 was in package.nmake.
Note: The errant file was not used to construct the official
binaries. Those were done using sys/windows/Makefile.nmake.
Closes#1525
Add Makefile support for an optional AMIGPKGSEQ to
append a suffix to the Amiga binary, without having to
rename the zip file manually after the
make CROSS_TO_AMIGA=1 package
step.
Core changes routed transient inventory away from WIN_INVEN, so the
port's win == WIN_INVEN gate stopped matching and glyphs vanished.
Track has_glyphs on the menu and key rendering and sizing off that.
I noticed that the "Dungeons & Dragons" trademark acknowledgement should
be using the _registered_ trade mark sign instead of the more general
one, as the mark's enjoyed registered status (in the U.S.) since 1978.

It occurred to me that updating the game description for a 2026 audience
might be an improvement on one that assumes the reader is familiar with
D&D, with Teletype machines ("TTYs"), and with the Rogue game, which
NetHack arguably eclipsed in notoriety decades ago.
So I rewrote it, and dropped the references to D&D. Besides, as of
commit c99da87c70, NetHack is incompatible with "Strength Table I." in
the AD&D Player's Handbook (TSR 2010, p. 9), so any grognard who lifts
would snatch NetHack's D&D membership card away anyway. ;-)

Notes
...
• When and how should I use quotation marks?
... groff, Heirloom Doctools troff, neatroff, and mandoc support
all of the special characters \[oq], \[cq], \[lq], \[rq], \[aq],
and \[dq] described in subsection “Portability” above. DWB, Plan
9, and Solaris troffs do not. Interpolating the strings \*(lq
and \*(rq portably yields directional double quotation marks, if
available, in all these formatters (though neatroff does not
supply a man macro package), but they cannot reliably be used in
macro arguments.
* Set cross reference to "nethack" man page in lowercase, because that's
the name under which it's installed, and POSIX systems are
case-sensitive.
* Refer to the "nethack" command using a man page cross reference only
on its first occurrence.
* Favor bullets over hyphens for itemized list.
* Drop explicit indentation amounts from lists. The man(7) package's
default suffices on all of Solaris 10, DWB 3.3, Plan 9, Heirloom
Doctools, and GNU *roffs, and on mandoc(1).
* Use tagged paragraphs to set synopses of syntax productions used in
the documented file format.
* Drop inset (indentation) of itemized and tagged lists; the bullets
make the structure clear, and (with the foregoing change) this way the
paragraphs align.
