o Add support for zlib compression via ZLIB_COMP in config.h (ZLIB_COMP
and COMPRESS are mutually exclusive).
o rlecomp and zerocomp are run time options available if RLECOMP and
ZEROCOMP are defined, but not turned on by default if either COMPRESS
or ZLIB_COMP are defined.
o Add information to the save file about internal compression options
used when writing the save file, particularly rlecomp and zerocomp
support.
o Automatically adjust rlecomp and zerocomp (if support compiled in)
when reading in an existing savefile that was saved with those options
turned on. Still allows writing out of savefile in preferred format.
o In order to support zlib and not conflict with compress and uncompress
routines there, the NetHack internal functions were changed to
nh_uncompress and nh_compress as done in the zlib contribution received
in 1999 from <Someone>.
I tagged the sources NETHACK_3_5_0_PREZLIB prior to applying these
changes.
- always write plname into save file, no longer conditional
- add 'selectsaved' wincap option to control the display of
a menu of save files for ports/platforms that support it.
- add support for win32 tty using normal nethack menus.
- the win/tty/wintty code is generalized enough that any
tty port could support the option if the appropriate port-specific
code hooks for wildcard file lookups are added to src/file.c
specifically in the get_saved_games() routine. There is posix
code in there from Warwick already, and there is findfirst/findnext
code in there from win32. Warwick has the posix code only
enabled for Qt at present, but with wintty support, that could be expanded
to other Unix environments quite easily I would think.
Here is what the tty support looks like:

Select one of your saved games
a - Bob
b - Fred
c - June
d - mine3
e - Sirius
f - Start a new character
(end)
The following files existed in the NetHack SAVEDIR directory
at the time:
ALLISONMI-Bob.NetHack-saved-game
ALLISONMI-Fred.NetHack-saved-game
ALLISONMI-June.NetHack-saved-game
ALLISONMI-mine3.NetHack-saved-game
ALLISONMI-Sirius.NetHack-saved-game
Note that despite the file names, the actual character name
is drawn from the savefile.
The WIN32CON support passes
USER-*.NetHack-saved-game
to findfirst/findnext where USER is your login name of course.

Fix the wizard mode crash From a bug report. Move the WIZKIT
message suppression to a lower level instead of trying to guard against
present and future pline() calls in the wishing code. The way that was
being handling wasn't suitable for dealing with quest feedback.
This also includes a couple of additional wishing synonyms.
This provides the core support needed for status field highlighting.
This patch doesn't actually perform status field highlighting for any port,
but provides the core hooks for doing so.
The syntax is:
OPTIONS=hilite_status:{fieldname}/{threshold}/{below}/{above}
where {fieldname} is the name of a status field.
{threshold} is the value used as the threshold to trigger a display
change. It can also be set to "updown" to trigger
a display change whenever it rises or whenever it falls.
If you end the threshold value with %, then it signifies
that you want to trigger the display change based on the
percentage of maximum.
{below}, {above}
are the color or display attribute that you want to use when
the field value is underneath the threshold. Supported display
fields are: normal, inverse, bold, black, red, green,
brown, blue, magenta, cyan, gray, orange,
bright-green, yellow, bright-blue, bright-magenta,
bright-cyan, or white.
Valid field names are:
alignment, armor-class, carrying-capacity,
charisma, condition, constitution, dexterity,
dungeon-level, experience-level, experience,
gold, HD, hitpoints-max, hitpoints, hunger,
intelligence, power-max, power, score,
strength, time, title, wisdom
Refer to window.doc for details. Guidebook updates to come later.
External names longer than 31 characters trigger a compiler warning
for me about truncation, and that causes make to quit. So shorten the
two long names. Also, call the cleanup routine for the FREE_ALL_MEMORY
configuration.
Add config.h experimental option AUTOPICKUP_EXCEPTIONS.
It's an interface-only change which allows you to add lines to your
config file to selectively avoid autopickup of items based on their
text description that is displayed when you pick them up. It does
it by matching a pattern against the xname singular return value.
For example:
autopickup_exception = "*corpse" will avoid picking up corpses, even if
food (%) is in your pickup_types.
autopickup_exception = "*brown*"
will avoid picking up any brown items (why, I do not know)
autopickup_exception = "*loadstone"
will NOT avoid picking up loadstones, unless they are already
identified, because the xname string will be "gray stone", so no
match there.
The matching has no knowledge of in-game objects, it is just
a text pattern match, thus it is an interface change, not a gameplay
change, and it is meant as a convenience for players.
Use fqname buffer 1 for restoring the save file (just like save does when
creating it) so the value won't change out from under the code in unixmain.
- Also moved a tty-specific hack in docompress_file that was causing
the 'y' response to the "keep the save file" prompt to be echoed twice.
Some changes for standard C platforms, to avoid declaring errno explictly.
Such platforms should declare errno in errno.h, which is already included
in the files in question.
Since only developers know that "13" is EACCES, try to include the text
message. I'm not 100% sure the ifdefs are complete, but it can be tweaked
as needed. This was the only common message in files.c that included errno
so it's the only one I changed. Of course, "13" is only one of several
possible errno values that might reasonably show up here.
Finally got around to installing OpenBSD (rev 3.3) in a vmware partition.
Found that several #if BSD's were inappropriate for modern BSD's. Haven't
installed FreeBSD or NetBSD, but based on reading their man pages,
these changes are needed there too. Mostly due to POSIX time() signature.

> So it should read like that unless that breaks Amiga code:
Since I can't test the Amiga code, I added a macro
OPENFAILURE to keep the Amiga code the same as it
is now. It should probably be reviewed by someone on
the Amiga team to verify if open() on the Amiga returns
0 or -1 on failure. If the latter, the macro could be
removed completely.
The previous changed ended up discarding the begining portion of
excessively long lines and keeping the end. It's unlikely that either
part is going to be valid, but reporting the ending portion as a failed
wish would make tracking down and fixing the situation trickier.
a few plines that were without punctuation. There may be more non-DEBUG
pline or pline-like things that are still missing punctuation. They are
almost impossible to find after the fact, since they could be anywhere,
including in various dat files and functions that pass strings and formats
into other functions that call pline.
Pat added some error information to create_levelfile.
This does the same for create_bonesfile, but the
only place it is logged is in the paniclog, unless
you're in wizard mode. If bones file creation is
silently failing for someone and they aren't getting
bones files, this provides a way to diagnose why.
1) consolidate all core usage of `errno' in files.c;
2) give more feedback for any failure by create_levelfile or open_levelfile,
similar to what was being done for problems during level change;
3) include trickery info in paniclog (many instances of "trickery" seem to
be due to disk or quota problems rather than user misbehavior...).
The create_levelfile call in pcmain probably ought to be changed to use
error feedback, but in the meantime this should continue working.
Perhaps error() should be modified to update paniclog too, but I didn't
want to go through all its port-specific incarnations making changes.
# ifdef WIN32
#define SAVESIZE (PL_NSIZ + 40) /* username-player.NetHack-saved-game */
files.c had:
# if defined(WIN32)
#define SAVESIZE (PL_NSIZ + 60) /* username-player.NetHack-saved-game */
It has to be 40 for savefile compatibility with 3.4.0.
Warwick's plname files.c addition broke the
build on both win32 and CE because NAMES_MAX
wasn't defined.
In win32 it was defined in limits.h, but only
when _POSIX_ was defined.
In CE it just didn't exist in any of the
header files. Since it was also complaining
about strdup(), I #ifdef'd Warwick's code out
under CE.
Move get_saved_games() functionality to files.c
Use moved get_saved_games() functionality in Qt windowport.
[also some non-enabled perminv code in Qt windowport]
