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

Introduction of a new set of window port status display
routines. The new routines are conditional on
STATUS_VIA_WINDOWPORT
being defined in config.h. See the experimental section,
where the #define resides for the time being.
For now, the code is conditional on BARGETHROUGH
being defined, while it gets tested further. While behavior is
different with and without BARGETHROUGH defined, savefiles
are the same either way.
After this patch is applied, only the riders have the M3_DISPLACES
bit set, but the Wizard and Vlad probably should too. Any others?
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.
Prompted by a question from Pat a long time back, this change finally allows
tiles or text map mode to be chosen dynamically at runtime (using the
"tiled_map" option) rather than having to pick it via an X resource and
keep your selection until you exit. This brings map mode selection up to a
level similar to most other graphical window ports.
In addition, the map mode automatically switches to text on the Rogue
level, also like other graphical window ports.
The default mode for the X11 binary is now tiles, once again, like most (all?)
other graphical window ports.
The patch also removes some dead X11 code that is unlikely to be useful again.
This old conditional was targeted for Apple compilers in a Unix
environment (probably A/UX, which hasn't been sold in over 10
years). It now interferes with installations under MacOS X.
This uses pmatch() as a default pattern matcher,
and #defines USER_SOUNDS_REGEX for Qt
to enable the code for regular expressions.
This is enabled for win32tty and win32gui.
Add an optional paniclog file, controlled by a new PANICLOG macro that can
be used to log all panic and impossible messages. Helpful when people
forget to send, or didn't see, the message.
These changes clean up build warnings and allow the resulting "NetHack"
Application icons to be dragged around freely in the Finder, as is expected
for Mac apps.
