There are two ways to enable curses in the build. Either set the
environment variable PDCURSES to a folder containing a PDCurses repository
OR place the PDCurses folder alongside the NetHack source repository.
Map back buffer work is done eliminating all flickering caused by
clears of the front buffer during partial updates.
Implemented a cursor blink in both ascii and tile modes.
Fixed bug where we would lose fit to screen when entering rogue level.
I was experimenting with some potential changes to menu searching but
have not been satisfied with the result. However, this bit of code
consolidation is worthwhile regardless of that.
Some of the items in NetHack.ad were separated from others by "!"
comment line rather than plain blank line and that tended to make it
look like the two items were directly related. For the ones which
aren't, remove '!'.
I also expanded some comments and reordered a couple of resources,
moving 'slow' closer to top and advanced 'translations' farther down.
appropriately.
Renamed ntassert to nhassert. (Naming mistake caused by using ntassert
at work).
Re-ordered a few more includes to get window headers included before
nethack headers.
Moved the code page 437 mapping table to winnt.c so that it could be
used in window and console clients.
Added check that fonts support unicode values we use from code page 437.
Use unicode to draw text if font supports it otherwise use ASCII.
Add code to run a fuzz tester, simulating (more-or-less) random
keyboard mashing. There's no option to turn it on, you need to
set iflags.debug_fuzzer on via a debugger or something along
those lines.
Restore handling for keystrokes on PICK_NONE menus so that scrolling
via keys works for them. (That handling was disabled as part of the
patch to support MENUCOLORS.)
Enable [cancel] button for all menus. (That had apparently been
grayed out for PICK_NONE menus since day 1 for X11 windowing.)
Previously the code used the ASCII Text Athena widgets for displaying
file contents. Unfortunately, the widget made it impossible to control
scrolling or pretty much anything else.
Use the menu code instead, making the file display window behave properly.
Both the "help" button at top and the "help" extended menu command
were hilighted by the X resources. Make the top buttons have
"btn_" prefix, so they're easily distinguished in the resources.
Set X resource NetHack*fancy_status: False to enable the TTY-style
status lines. Default is the fancy status.
This patch is somewhat unfinished - even though the TTY-style status
allow for status hilites, the colors don't work correctly yet.
Also changes the fancy status to use the windowport notification code.
This started out as some formatting cleanup for src/windows.c but
ended up removing calloc() from the WINCHAIN code, plus fixing a
couple of compiler complaints for win/chain/wc_trace.c.
I tried to actually run with +trace enabled and never managed to
get anything to happen. trace_procs_init() was never called. I've
never tried to use it before so don't know whether something which
used to work has gotten broken or I'm just doing it wrong.
