Instead of flat, have bin, lib and include folders for
the native DOS pieces.
If you have been cross-compiling for MSDOS, you will
need to carry out the following to bring things up-to-date:
sys/msdos/fetch-cross-compiler.sh
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 WANT_DEBUG=1 package
There was a transcription error in the comments in cstd.h for
the standard list of header files, where only the description
remained for <stdlib.h>, not the name of the file itself.
Remove several extraneous inclusions of the standard C99 headers.
Tested on the following afterwards:
Linux (using hints/linux.370) including tty, curses, qt6, and X11
macOS (using hints/macOS.370) including tty, curses, qt5, and X11
Windows MSYS2 using sys/windows/GNUmakefile
Windows Visual Studio using sys/windows/Makefile.nmake
msdos cross-compile on Ubuntu using djgpp cross-compiler
This build command will include line number info, gdb.exe or nhgdb.bat in the package:
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 WANT_DEBUG=1 package
This build command will not include line number info, gdb.exe or nhgdb.bat in the package:
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 package
The WANT_DEBUG=1 will cause the cross-compile to include line
number information in the NetHack executable, useful for
backtraces and gdb debugging sessions.
How a developer can use the optional deploy-to-dosbox target:
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 WANT_DEBUG=1 dosbox=/mnt/c/dosbox deploy-to-dosbox
where dosbox= points to the directory which will be mounted for
your drive in dosbox
THe deploy-to-dosbox recipe ensures that a target copy of gdb.exe
ends up alongside nethack.exe at the target, including:
- placing the source code that gdb requires on the target
in the nhsrc subfolder.
- an nhgdb.bat that supplies the right switches to gdb
for locating the NetHack sources.
new .h files: hacklib.h selvar.h stairs.h
new .c files: calendar.c, getpos.c, report.c, selvar.c, stairs.c,
strutil.c, wizcmds.c
cleanup of hacklib.c and mdlib.c
hacklib contains functions that do not have to link with the core
relocate wiz commands from cmd.c to wizcmds.c
relocate CRASHREPORT stuff to report.c
relocate getpos stuff from do_name.c to getpos.c
remove temporary struct definition from extern.h
cross-compile PRE-section split into cross-pre1.370 and cross-pre2.370
Windows sys/windows/Makefile.nmake and sys/windows/Makefile.mingw32 and
visual studio project file updates
Unix sys/unix/Makefile.src, sys/unix/Makefile.utl
populate selvar.c and selvar.h
build on MS-DOS (not cross-compile) Makefile updates
for sys/msdos/Makefile.GCC (untested)
vms updates for above (untested)
Before using this updated packaging you will need
to do the following (one time):
sh sys/msdos/fetch-cross-compiler.sh
And you'll need to update your Makefiles as follows.
On Linux:
sh sys/msdos/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/linux.370
or on macOS;
sh sys/msdos/setup.sh sys/unix/hints/macOS.370
Create the msdos package with:
make CROSS_TO_MSDOS=1 package
../lib/pdcursesmod/dos/../common/dosutil.c:36:15: warning: comparison of integer expressions of different signedness: 'long int' and 'long unsigned int' [-Wsign-compare]
36 | while( ms > MAX_NAP_SPAN)

It isn't something that we can actually resolve within NetHack,
so just suppress the submodule build warning.
This commit will trigger the CI to carry out a test of the build.
There could be some follow-up after the results.
Log game events, such as entering a new dungeon level, breaking
a conduct, or killing a unique monster, in a new "Major events"
chronicle. The entries record the turn when the event happened.
The log can be viewed with #chronicle -command, and the entries
also show up in the end-of-game dump, if that is available.
This feature is on by default, but can be disabled by
defining NO_CHRONICLE compile-time option.
This also contains "live logging", writing the events as they
happen into a single livelog-file. This is mostly useful for
public servers. The livelog is off by default, and must be
compiled in with LIVELOG, and then turned on in sysconf.
Mostly this a version of livelogging from the Hardfought server,
with some changes.
emcc: error: linker setting ignored during compilation: 'ASSERTIONS' [-Wunused-command-line-argument] [-Werror]
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1306: ../targets/wasm/allmain.o] Error 1
wasm-ld: error: ../targets/wasm/version.o: undefined symbol: nomakedefs
These ones look like actual NetHack issues that this particular compile is catching due to
default -Wunused-but-set-variable.
In the interest of time today, I mostly resorted to using nhUse() on them for now, but a
follow-up by someone might be useful.

move out-of-date hints files to the outdated folder.
rename the hints files, and hints/include files that are currently
named *.2020 to *.370 (next release number).
