The curses interface already has a hack to keep 'Count: 12', 'Count:
123' intermediate multi-digit counts out of its message recall history
for ^P, but it was flushing real messages when getpos()'s 'autodescribe'
reported what the cursor moved over. Overload the count hack to support
putstr(WIN_MESSAGE, ATR_NOHISTORY, text)
(which is what custompline(SUPPRESS_HISTORY, ...) eventually calls).
The conditional logic for when to create the 'count_window' was pretty
convoluted. This simplification has the same semantics but I don't
have PDCURSES to actually verify that.
Move the curses global variable defininitions to cursmain.c.
Make the references to those global variables extern in
include/wincurs.h
Get rid of a warning:
../win/curses/cursmesg.c:379:9: warning: declaration shadows a
variable in the global scope [-Wshadow] int orig_cursor = curs_set(0);
Kludge for Visual Studio compiler: Add a stub- file for use
in Windows curses port builds to ensure that a needed #pragma
is invoked prior to compiling the file pdcscrn.c in the
PDCurses source distribution. All command line options and
compile of the file. It is unreasonable to expect a NetHack
builder to have to tinker with the PDCurses source files in
order to build NetHack. This kludge means the NetHack builder
doesn't have to.
The file stub-pdcscrn.c contains only two lines:
#pragma warning(disable : 4996)
#include "pdcscrn.c"
Some day, if the PDCurses sources corrects the issue, this
can go away.
