Use the 'm' Prefix to make wizwish show the history menu.
Also entries wished via WIZKIT are added to the history.
While debugging, I often need to wish the same thing multiple
times, and typing or pasting it with mouse is annoying...
Change 'v' from #versionshort to #chronicle.
Change 'V' from #history to #versionshort.
History can still be accessed either directly with the extended command,
or via the help menu.
Versionshort now accepts the m-prefix, and then shows the longer version.
Allows the user to configure a key binding to toggle any boolean
option, for example:
BIND=':toggle(price_quotes)
BIND=v:toggle(autodig)
The option must be settable in-game.
This replaces deprecatd styles with the modern LaTeX
equivalent (it - textit, etc.) and removes some verbatim
content that was not needed. More special characters
are cleaned up as well.
This replaces the custom blist with the LaTex built-in description list
and adds enumitem to style the lists more easily. A default style for
the description list is defined instead of specifying the font in every
list item. Some special characters in list items are also replaced
with textcomp options such as textasciigrave, etc.
This is essentially the minimum required to start modernizing the LaTeX
code for the guidebook. Because this breaks the way that underscores
and straight single quotation marks were implemented, this also replaces
those with textunderscore and textsinglequote.
This is the second of a series of changes related to save/restore.
No EDITLEVEL bump has been included, because although the code
is changed extensively by this, the content of the savefiles have
not been changed.
Push the use of the structlevel bwrite() and mread() function use
out of the core and into sfstruct.c. This is groundwork for upcoming
changes.
In the core, replace the bwrite() and mread() calls with the
use of type-specific savefile output (Sfo) and savefile
input (Sfi) macros. The macros are defined in a new header file
savefile.h, which also contains the prototypes for the sfo_* and
sfi_* functions that the macros ultimately expand to. The functions
themselves are in src/sfbase.c.
On C99, each Sfo or Sfi macro expansion refers directly to the
corresponding type-specific sfo_* or sfi_* function.
If C23 or later is is use, the majority (all but 3 types) of the
macros refer to a single _Generic output routine sfo(nhfp, dt, tag),
and a single _Generic input routine sfi(nhfp, dt, tag), which handles
the dispatch of the type-specific underlying functions. This was
somewhat experimental, but turned out to be practical because the
compiler would gripe if the type for a variable was not included in
the _Generic when passed as an argument, so it could be fixed.
This alters the savefile verication process by having a common set
return values for the related functions such as uptodate(),
check_version(), etc. The new return values return more information
about savefile incompatibilities, beyond failure/sucess. The
additional information will be useful for an upcoming addition.
The expanded return values are:
SF_UPTODATE (0) everything matched and looks good
SF_OUTDATED (1) savefile is outdated
SF_CRITICAL_BYTE_COUNT_MISMATCH (2) critical size count mismatch
SF_DM_IL32LLP64_ON_ILP32LL64 (3) Windows x64 savefile on x86
SF_DM_I32LP64_ON_ILP32LL64 (4) Unix 64 savefile on x86
SF_DM_ILP32LL64_ON_I32LP64 (5) x86 savefile on Unix 64
SF_DM_ILP32LL64_ON_IL32LLP64 (6) x86 savefile on Windows x64
SF_DM_I32LP64_ON_IL32LLP64 (7) Unix 64 savefile on Windows x64
SF_DM_IL32LLP64_ON_I32LP64 (8) Windows x64 savefile on Unix 64
SF_DM_MISMATCH (9) some other mismatch
The callers in the core have been adjusted to deal with the expanded
return values.
Other miscellaneous inclusions:
- go.oracle_loc -> svo.oracle_loc.
- add a bit (1UL << 30) to called SFCTOOL_BIT as groundwork
for changes to follow.
The Guidebook states that the default values for 'role', 'race',
'gender', and 'alignment' are "random" but that's wrong. Omitting
those options results in interactive prompting.
The two options are very similar but probably mutually exclusive
except when using look-here and look-into-container (both via ':')
with the default setting for 'sortloot', or with inventory when
'sortpack' has been toggled off.
This removes 'use_menu_glyphs' and changes 'menu_objsyms' from a
boolean to a compound taking six possible values:
| 0: no object symbols in menus,
| 1: append object class symbol to object header lines (same as old
|menu_objsyms boolean),
| 2: include object symbol in menu entry lines for objects (same as
|recently added use_menu_glyphs),
| 3: both 1 and 2,
| 4: display as #2 but only if the menu lacks class header lines,
| 5: if header lines are present, display as #1; if headers are not
|present, then display as #4 (which will implicitly be #2).
Default is #4.
Effectively replaces the options portion of pull request #1406 and
retains the functionality, but not as default for normal menus.
Guidebook.tex is only partially updated. Someone else will need to
finish that.
To update, run "perl DEVEL/nhgitset.pl"
Fixes:
- "nhcommit -a" has been fixed
- NHDT was hardwired in places
- no longer complain about a missing dat directory outside of the
NetHack source tree
- make update of gitinfo atomic
- Replace some hardwired directory separators with OS-dependent constructs
Backwards Incompatibilities:
- NH_DATESUB's DATE() is now Date() to match the other variables
- MSYS2 requires an additional Perl package - the MSYS2 docs have
been updated
New Help System:
- git nhhelp
This command mirrors "git help" for nh* commands.
- See git nhhelp nhsub for general help on substitution variables
New Substitution Variables:
-Brev()
An aBREViation of $PREFIX-Branch$:$PREFIX-Revision$ - this
may help get line length under control in file headers.
-Assert(TYPE=VALUE)
If TYPE does not match VALUE, do not substitute on this line.
TYPE P checks VALUE against nethack.substprefix
-Project(arg)
Returns nethack.projectname if there is no arg and an uppercase
version if arg is uc.
Other New Features:
- Add nethack.projectname
- Documentation updates - see "git nhhelp nhsub"
- On checkout or merge of a branch, check for nhgitset version updates
and provide an optional message to the user.
- Move NH_DATESUB substitutions here from cron job to keep dates in sync
- PREFIX-* keywords now available in NH_DATESUB templates
- Support use of nhgitset.pl from a different repo; note that update
checks will be dependent on keeping the original source repo up-to-date
and in the same location.
Instead of
" a-z and
" A-Z and
" @&':;
for the lists of characters used to show monsters, followed by
" I
for special "remembered, unseen monster", change the capital letter
line
" a-z and
" A-HJ-Z and
" @&':;
to emphasize that 'I' is used differently from other letters.
Also, add the trailing "and"s to the LaTeX version. I haven't seen
what the result looks like.
Extend paranoid_confirm:trap to also ask for confirmation when
attempting to enter a gas cloud region (scroll of stinking cloud,
breath from green dragons or iron golems, steam clouds from boiling
water, vapor left by fog cloud movement, no doubt several others).
Like with traps, can be overridden for a given move by using the
'm' prefix. Unlike traps, doesn't try to guess whether moving into
a region will be harmless.
Doesn't affect movement into cloud terrain (Plane of Air).
Update the Guidebook to describe the revised behavior of
paranoid_confirm:trap and to mention how #terrain deals with regions.
'any_visible_region()' got mixed in with this but isn't used yet.
Affects extern.h and region.c.
A recent change accidentally put a dash where a hyphen (default
value for S_golem) is intended. I'm not sure whether verbatim is
necessary here, but it ought to work.
The description of the default map display was out of date:
Sinks aren't conditional anymore, and were changed from '#' to '{'.
Statues were still listed as '`' but aren't displayed as that.
Room and corridor engravings weren't mentioned.
Wall of water and wall of lava weren't mentioned.
Drawbridge portcullis ('#' when closed) and span ('.' when open)
weren't mentioned.
This splits introductory "- and |" into two entries.
I've forced CR font (similar to TeX's tt font) for the initial
character of all the entries.
The formatting of letters for monsters left something to be desired
so I've tried to redo it. The 'roff edition seems ok (as least when
there's no page break in the middle of it) but I'm not sure how the
LaTeX version will fare. I didn't try to include the trailing "and"
on the first two lines the way the 'roff version does since I wasn't
sure how to accomplish that.
The construct "\\'#rrggbb'" seemed strange and while fixing that
I made several other changes. There's an escape sequence for
apostrophe but "#rrggbb" doesn't actually need any quoting in the
first place (except for "\#" in the TeX version).
There was unwanted indentation after the OPTIONS=windowcolors line
in the 'roff version. For the TeX version, avoid 'verbatim' since
it contains both literal text and placeholders that are now being
distinguished with italics.
Also, "trueblack" is Windows-specific rather than an ordinary named
color.
