Black is a better choice given that the map background
will always be black. This also creates a better polished
experience when all window backgrounds are set to black.
Fix bug where permanent inventory window would go away after
any operation that used the inventory window to pick items. Since
we were hiding the permanent inventory window, this would also
leave a space filled with white, creating jarring visual if
using dark themed window backgrounds.
Originally by Ray Chason for 3.4.3, based on the Qt windowport by
Warwick Allison. The look and feel is mostly the same.
Some improvements over the Qt 3 interface are:
* Panes are resizable
* Full support for IBMgraphics, and walls and corridors are drawn with
graphical primitives for a continuous appearance no matter what the font
says
* Lots of irritating glitches fixed
* Menus support proportional fonts correctly
Adding this because the old Qt windowport cannot be compiled on Qt4,
even with Qt3 compatibility stuff.
TODO:
- background map glyphs
- status hilites
- menucolors
When built without STATUS_HILITES, don't treat highlighting options as
if they were unknown. This may need some tweaking; the feedback feels
a bit intrusive so perhaps 'statushilites' and 'hilite_status' should
just be ignored when not available.
'hitpointbar' now relies on wc2 handling instead of being conditionally
present.
win/share/tileset.c seems only to be used by the MSDOS port, but it
compiles cleanly on OSX after these changes.
A file pointer was passed to fclose() twice, second time potentially
causing problems. There were cases of potentially null pointers
being passed to free() too. That should be safe these days, but it's
something we've tried to hard to avoid and would probably trigger
complaints from our own MONITOR_HEAP code if that ever got applied
here.
I couldn't reproduce the reported problem of the "In what direction?"
being issued after the screen was cleared, but bypassing pline() in
favor of putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) for tty prompts did also bypass
if (vision_full_recalc) vision_recalc(0);
if (u.ux) flush_screen(1);
done in pline(). Inadvertent loss of the latter could conceivably be
responsible for the problem. If so, the escape code used by cl_end()
may be broken for somebody's termcap or terminfo setup since clearing
to the end of the line in the message window shouldn't erase the rest
of the screen.
Regardless, the prompting change also bypassed the ability to show
the prompt with raw_printf() if the display wasn't fully intialized
yet, so some change to the revised prompting was necessary anyway.
Switching back from putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) to pline() resulted in
duplicated entries in DUMPLOG message history, one with bare prompt
followed by another with response appended, so more tweaking was
needed. The result is use of new custompline() instead of normal
pline(). custompline() accepts some message handling flags to give
more control over pline()'s behavior. It's a more general variation
of Norep() but its caller needs to specify an extra argument.
Update DUMPLOG's message history to include player responses to
most queries. For tty, both getlin() and yn_function(). For other
interfaces, only yn_function() is covered. (It's intercepted by a
core routine that can take care of the logging; getlin() isn't.)
Also includes saved messages from previous session(s), for the
interfaces which support that (tty), to fill out the logging when
a game ends shortly after a save/restore cycle.
The tty interface was using pline() to display prompt strings.
Having 'MSGTYPE=hide "#"' or 'MSGTYPE=hide "yn"' in .nethackrc
would suppress many prompt strings (in the two examples mentioned,
entering extended commands or the vast majority of yes/no questions,
respectively) and generally lead to substantial confusion even if
done intentionally, so switch to putstr(WIN_MESSAGE) instead.
Rewrite 3.6.1's compress_str() to avoid peeking past the end of the
input string. This should eliminate the reported valgrind complaint.
The problem was noticed for post-3.6.0 code introduced [by me...] last
June, but it looks like it was present in the old code too.
Also, fix the wording in the paragraph about NUL in the keyhelp text.
tty_putstr() always passes non-message window text through compress_str(),
clobbering usage of two spaces to separate sentences. putstr()'s caller
ought to have more control over that (possibly via its hardly ever used
'attribute' arg?).
This is a modified version of Jason Dorje Short's key rebinding
patch, and allows also binding special keys, such as the ones
used in getloc and getpos.
One of the ways to play NetHack on nethack.alt.org is via a HTML
terminal in browser. Unfortunately this means several ctrl-key
combinations cannot be entered, because the browser intercepts
those. Similar thing applies to some international keyboard layouts
on Windows. With this patch, the user can just rebind the command
to a key that works best for them.
I've tested this on Linux TTY, X11, and Windows TTY and GUI.
