Three-way swap: move blindfold to alt-weapon slot, alt-weapon to
quiver slot, and quiver to former blindfold slot. Affects first
and third rows of the 6x3 grid.

shown.]
New for Qt, moving the mouse over one of the slots in the paperdoll
inventory subset and letting it pause there will use Qt's tool tip
mechanism to give a description of the item under the pointer, if
there is one, or of what the slot would contain when there isn't.
So "e - uncursed leather gloves (being worn)" or "no gloves" when
the pointer is over the glove slot. If you do something with the
keyboard to make the paperdoll change while the mouse is still
hovering, you'll need to move the pointer slightly to have Qt
recheck for tool tip at that spot. It may be feasible to force
an immediate update, but I'm satisfied with how it's working.
Interestingly, you can move pointer and hover while yn_function()
has asked you to pick an inventory item and is waiting for an
answer. Mostly useful for Take-off/Remove or #adjust.
The toolbar contains do-Again, Pick up, Drop, Kick, Throw, Fire,
Eat, and Rest. Insert Search in front of Rest since it's useful
in its own right and some players prefer it even when resting.
Includes a new 12x13 icon; a tiny magnifying glass shown straight
on is something I can manage.
Both the toolbar button for pick up and the action menu entry for
pick up were labeled "Get". That's confusing for an experienced
player who is looking for "Pick up". Rename both of them.
Also, consolidate repetitive code used to set up toolbar buttons.
An issue in the core made the "Zz" button in the Qt toolbar only
work if rest_on_space was enabled. cmd_from_func() was returning
' ' instead of '.' for the keystroke to run the rest command.
Because some Makefile.top dependencies triggered the build
of the host native lua library, the cross-compiles were
building it needlessly.
Make it a make variable so that it can be overridden by
cross-compile recipes in sys/unix/hints/include/cross-*.2020
Use ansimpleoname() instead of doname() to describe the key or
lock pick or credit card when reporting "You can't fix a chest's
broken lock with a <foo>." doname() includes BUC status when
known and feedback mentioning a particular bless/curse state on
the tool that can't be used to fix the lock suggests that some
other bless/curse state might be viable.

Replace use of $(LINK) with $(CLINK) or $(CXXLINK) as warranted.
When the Qt interface is enabled, the utility programs were all
(except dlb) being linked with C++ support. That didn't cause
any problems, just looked wrong. Link them as C instead of C++.
Two actually do need C++ support (and still have it) but both
are dead: 'tile2beos' because the source file doesn't exist (not
even in 'outdated'), 'tileedit' because it won't build with Qt5.
I didn't bother with QUIETCC support for them.
There were still a couple of references to dgn_comp (for the lint
target; just in the name of a macro, not its value); remove those.
When qt_yn_function() or qt_more() is asking for a single character
response, typing anything will cause the prompt line in the message
window to stop being highlighted. If they reject what's been typed,
they beep (--More-- doesn't start beeping until second rejection);
change both of them to also rehighlight the prompt line to give a
visual indication that the question/acknowledgement is still being
asked.
Prevent a small inventory menu as the first one shown from forcing
all subsequent ones from being the same short height by forcing it
to have room for at least 15 lines. Temporary hack until someone
figures out why resizing the reused WIN_INVEN isn't working.
Does not affect non-inventory menus which get created on demand and
destroyed when done so don't need to change size to fit different
contents.
Clicking on the status panel runs ^X to show character and status
information without abbreviations. The code needed is identical
to what's now used for clicking on the paper doll inventory panel
except for the command to execute.
Clicking on the paper doll inventory subset window will cause
the '*' command (#seeall) to execute. They convey the same
information (unless multiple leashes or multiple light sources
are in use; seeall lists all of them instead of just the first
of each) but the doll shows the info with a small grid of map
tiles and seeall shows it with an inventory display of worn and
wielded items plus tools in active use.
Ideally it should show information about a specific item as a
"tool tip" when the mouse hovers over one of the doll slots.
I don't know whether I'll ever attempt to tackle that or even
if that's feasible with Qt. Perhaps use right click instead.
Don't allow the user to construct a count value when operating on
a pick-none menu where counts aren't meaningful. Unfortunately
that can still be done on pick-one or pick-any menus which don't
happen to have any entries where a count is applicable.
Allow a count to be optionally started with '#'. Note that if
there is an entry using '#' for the selector letter (probably
inventory that has something in the overflow slot), typing '#'
will select the entry instead of initiating a count.
Flail about a bit trying to get menu size correct--failed on this
front.
Credit: The initial Web Assembly cross compile was found in a pull request:
https://github.com/NetHack/NetHack/pull/385
by apowers313. The pull request was merged with some accompanying
NetHack source tree integration changes in early October 2020.
Cross-compiler used: emscripten
Cross-compiler url: https://emscripten.org/docs/getting_started/downloads.html
Here's a brief guide to obtaining the cross-compiler sources via git and
building it on your system.
For Ubuntu, the build prerequisite packages for building the compiler can
be easily obtained:
sudo apt-get install python3 cmake default-jre
For macOS, you will need to install Xcode, git, cmake, Python 3.5 or new
(at time of this writing).
After installing the prerequite packages above, obtain the cross-compiler
via git and build it from the directory of your choice using steps similar
to these:
git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git
cd emsdk
git pull
./emsdk install latest
./emsdk activate latest
source ./emsdk_env.sh
The steps above reflect what was outlined at this url at the time
of writing:
https://emscripten.org/docs/getting_started/downloads.html
That is the definitive source and trumps anything documented here.
On your linux host, prepare to cross-compile NetHack as follows:
cd sys/unix ; sh setup.sh hints/linux.2020 ; cd ../..
make fetch-lua
On your macOS host, prepare to cross-compile NetHack as follows:
cd sys/unix ; sh setup.sh hints/macOS.2020 ; cd ../..
make fetch-lua
Then, cross-compile to targets/wasm as follows:
make CROSS_TO_WASM=1
You can build src/nethacklib.a from pull request 385 as follows:
make WANT_LIBNH=1
Do not add any additional windowport interfaces to your build
(such as WANT_WIN_TTY=1 WANT_WIN_CURSES=1 WANT_WIN_X11=1 or
WANT_WIN_QT=1) as those aren't applicable to the Web Assembly
or nethacklib builds. A "shim" pseudo-windowport is included
from pull request 385.
Result: As mentioned, the wasm cross-compile will end up in
targets/wasm and the nethacklib.a will end up
src.
The cross-compiler hints additions are enclosed inside ifdef sections
and shouldn't interfere with the non-cross-compile builds using
hints/linux.2020 or hints/macOS.2020.
