sounds can be set in the config file or on the fly with the Options menu.
This also adds a mechanism for specifying a terminology preference
for a boolean option in the options menu.
The choices are: Term_False, Term_Off, Term_Disabled
Term_False, the default, will use the terms "false" and "true" in the
Options menu.
Term_Off will use the terms "off" and "on" in the Options menu.
Term_Disabled will use the terms "disabled" and "enabled" in the Options
menu.
I didn't review any of the existing options to see if one of the new
alternative terms might be a better fit. They were all left at the default.
Catch the LaTex Guidebook up with the nroff one for the role, race,
gender, and alignment options.
For both formats, comment out the decription of 'altmeta' on Amiga.
Instead of using a compile-time macro to suppress inclusion of the
menu entry to show UNIX command-line usage in the help menu, use a
sysconf setting instead.
Default is HIDEUSAGE=0, to include the entry for command-line usage.
Set HIDEUSAGE=1 to exclude that. Does not affect 'nethack --usage'
if player actually has access to the command-line.
Make the existing '#vanquished' command be available during regular
play, with M-V bound to it. 'm #vanquished' or 'm M-V' brings up
the sorting menu that you get when answering 'a' rather than 'y' at
the end-of-game "disclose vanquished creatures?" prompt.
The original #vanquished came from slash'em, where it was available
in normal play. When added to nethack, it was put in as wizard-mode-
only. I added the sorting capability several years ago.
The chosen sort is remembered and re-used if not reset but only for
the remainder of the current session. It probably ought of become
a run-time option so be settable in advance and across sessions but
I haven't done that.
The #showgold command now does mention known contained gold in your
inventory, so the various lines in the Guidebook which explicitly state
that it doesn't needed to be updated. Wish I had noticed this in time
to put it into the previous Guidebook patch I submitted, but what can
you do.
The pull request included some changes that were neither accidental nor
unintentional, so only a subset of the changes from pull request #869
submitted by klorpa were manually applied.
behaviour -> behavior
speach -> speech
knowlege -> knowledge
incrments -> increments
stethscope -> stethoscope
staiway -> stairway
arifact -> artifact
extracing -> extracting
The uses of "iff" were left alone.
Close#869
Wizard-mode command to cast any spell without checks that would
prevent casting, and with no energy use.
Mainly to allow the fuzzer to exercise the spell code paths.
Instead of hardcoding mouse button actions, allow the user to
bind mouse buttons to extended commands. For example the new
defaults are:
BIND=mouse1:therecmdmenu
BIND=mouse2:clicklook
Currently a bit rudimentary; the defaults should be OK, but
documentation is bit lacking, and in-game binding and option
saving are missing.
Allowed commands to bind are "nothing", "therecmdmenu", "clicklook",
and "mouseaction". Clicklook replaces the "clicklook" boolean option,
and mouseaction does what mouse 1 button used to do - a context sensitive
action.
Preceding #options or the key bound to that with m runs 'advanced'
options. Implement the inverse: preceding #optionsfull or the key
bound to that with m now runs 'simple' options.
Inspired by the diff from entrez. I didn't care for 'time'. I don't
like 'novelty' much either, but it is a little more accurate since
there is no time factor involved with just-picked-up.
Make the default options menu only show the most important
options, split into categories. The full, traditional menu
can be accessed by using the m-prefix.
Incorporate the diff from entrez describing the travel_debug wizard
mode option and removing obsolete M prefix from the Guidebook. That
missed a reference to it in the description of '_'.
I put M back in case someone who has used it with earlier versions
tries to use it and gets a no-such-command complaint so goes looking
for it.
Also, make the mention of ^X at the end of the discussion of status
stand out a bit. The indentation of its paragraph made it line up
with the preceding text instead of making it be distinct from that.
The TeX changes are untested and given the amount of punctuation
characters used, it will be surprising if they all have been quoted
properly.
The #therecmdmenu command calls getdir() which issues an "in what
direction?" prompt. This allows you to answer with "_" instead of a
regular direction, then it will call getpos() to allow you to move
the cursor and type "," (or ";") to behave as if a left-click had
been done or type "." (or ":") to behave as right-click.
Ordinarily I would think of the 'normal' getpos() response of "."
as suitable for left-click, then one of the other getpos finishers
for right-click, but comma is left of period on a standard keyboard
and that seems useful for remembering which is used for which click.
Left clicking on a spot farther than one step away offers travel,
throw iff lined up, and also click-look as choices. If you right
click farther than one step away, it will only offer click-look.
The look choice for either left or right click isn't inhibited by
having the clicklook option set to False. After all, player is
explicitly choosing the menu entry to look at something.
New getdir.mouse can be bound to some other key than "_" and the
getpos.pick* responses could already be re-bound, but there's no
separate getdir.left/right that could be used to bind different keys
from those used for the four getpos responses.
Add a way to get rid of specific monsters in wizard mode without
fighting, zapping, &c. #wizkill command lets you kill creatures by
picking them with getpos().
You can pick multiple monsters by targetting them one after another.
You don't have to be able to see or sense them but if you target a
spot that has no monster, the command ends.
By default, the hero gets credit or blame as if having killed the
targets but #wizkill can be preceded by 'm' prefix to treat their
deaths as if they had been caused by a monster.
A new feature, enabled by default to maximize testing, but one which can
be disabled by commenting it out in config.h
With this, some additional information is added to the glyphmap entries
in a new optional substructure called u with these fields:
ucolor RGB color for use with truecolor terminals/platforms.
A ucolor value of zero means "not set." The actual
rgb value of 0 has the 0x1000000 bit set.
u256coloridx 256 color index value for use with 256 color
terminals, the closest color match to ucolor.
utf8str Custom representation via utf-8 string (can be null).
There is a new symset included in the symbols file, called enhanced1.
Some initial code has been added to parse individual
OPTIONS=glyph:glyphid/R-G-B entries in the config file.
The glyphid can, in theory, either be an individual glyph (G_* glyphid)
for a single glyph, or it can be an existing symbol S_ value
(monster, object, or cmap symbol) to store the custom representation for
all the glyphs that match that symbol.
Examples:
OPTIONS=glyph:G_fountain/U+03A8/0-150-255
(Your platform/terminal font needs to be able to include/display the
character, of course.)
The NetHack core code does parsing and storing the customized
entries, and adding them to the glyphmap data structure.
Any window port can utilize the additional information in the glyphinfo
that is passed to them, once code is added to do so.
Also, consolidate some symbol-related code into symbols.c, and remove it from
files.c and options.c
Implement 'untrap' as an 'autounlock' action. Quite a bit more work
than anticipated. The new documentation is rather clumsy; too many
if-this and if-not-that clauses have intruded.
I'll be astonished if all the return values are correct....
[A couple of places were checking for (rx != 0 && ry != 0) to decide
whether they were performating an autounlock action at <rx,ry> but
that erroneously excludes the top line of the map if the current
level extends that far. Just check rx for zero/non-zero.]
This gives the player more control over what autounlock does. It is
now a compound option rather than a boolean, and takes values of
autounlock:none
!autounlock or noautounlock (shortcuts for none)
autounlock:untrap + apply-key + kick + force (spaces are optional
or can be used instead of plus-signs, but can't mix "foo bar+quux")
autounlock (without a value, shortcut for autounlock:apply-key).
Default is autounlock:apply-key.
Untrap isn't implemented (feel free to jump in) so is suppressed from
the 'O' command's new sub-menu for autounlock. It's parsed and
accepted from .nethackrc but won't accomplish anything.
[Just musing: it should be feasible to kick in direction '.' to break
open a container or #force to an adjacent spot to break open a door.
If that was done, autounlock:kick+force (or more likely autounlock:
apply-key+kick+force when lacking a key) would resort to force if hero
couldn't kick due to wounded legs or riding.
This changes struct flags so increments EDITLEVEL again.
This includes pull requests #750 from entrez and #751 from FIQ but was
entered from scratch rather than using use their commits.

Allow the player to precede q/#quaff or M-d/#dip with the 'm' prefix
to skip asking about fountains, sinks, or pools if one of those
happens to be present, similar to how using it for e/#eat skips food
on the floor and goes straight to inventory.
If you use it and don't have any potions, you'll get "you don't have
anything to drink" or "you don't have anything to dip into", same as
when there is no suitable dungeon feature present combined with no
potions. However, if an applicable dungeon feature is present and
you don't use the prefix but answer 'no' to drink from fountain,&c
and you don't have any potions, "else" will be inserted into the
message: "you don't have anything else to drink".
A big part of the diff is just a change in indentation level for
code that is now inside 'if (!iflags.menu_requested) {' ... '}'.
The change in the long-standing default for 'autopickup' warrants
mention in the Guidebook. Also, the X11 interface can switch to
alternate tiles but doesn't use the 'tile_file' option to do so.
In Guidebook.mn, the list of options pads ones shorter than 8
characters with trailing spaces, necessitating quotes. A few longer
ones had such quotes and even trailing spaces. Take those away.
In the sysconf section, "the following options affect the score file:"
had some score options and then several non-score options. Change to
"following four options" which reads a little strange but is precise.
Some other inserted line after those four options describing what
follows would read better but the stuff that follows is essentially
random based on the order that support for them was implemented.
Guidebook.mn: the 'placeholders' for DUMPLOG file name substitution
had the description column line up but the proportional font for the
'%x' column looked bad. Force fixed-width font there. Also add some
indentation. I wasn't sure whether '.in' should in inside .PS ... .PE
or outside. The final result looks the same either way.
Guidebook.tex: the new LIVELOG entry was accidentally placed after
the \elist line when it should come before that. (Not tested.)
