Add -w|--windowtype.
Also --scores and --directory as recognized variations of -s and -d.
Add -@. The existing description of '-p @' seems to be inaccurate,
and random role but still having to supply race+gender+alignment
isn't very useful anyway. The bit about maybe needing to quote @ with
backslash might still be useful if moved to -@ though.
Add -A|-Arc -B|-Bar ... -W|Wiz since they hadn't been listed. I put
them on their own line instead of cluttering up the main program
invocation even further.
Move '-u character-name' before '-D' since that order matters on some
platforms.
Move --showpaths and --version to a separate command invocation since
combining them with any other stuff ends up ignoring that other stuff.
I didn't add --dumpenums.
The description of config file name and location under '-dec and -ibm'
is out of date, particularly for Windows.
1. remove all window interface bits from compiler.370, and have
the preceding include files set some variables to control
the behavior of compiler.370 when it comes to c++.
2. some more common Makefile lines into sys/unix/hints/include/multiw-3.370.
3. make it so you can pass cppregex=1 on the Make command line to build with
sys/share/cppregex.cpp instead of posixregex.c
4. fix sys/share/cppregex.cpp so that it will build with clang compiler
(required an additional header include). I don't know if it would have
worked with g++ without that change. The include can be placed into an #ifdef
block if there's an issue with the change on other compilers.
5. Anything that needs to compile using c++ (Qt, sys/share/cppregex.cpp) can
just ensure that CPLUSPLUS_NEEDED Makefile variable is set above the lines
in compiler.370 to ensure that things get set up for c++. It no longer
checks specifically for Qt. That is what sys/unix/hints/include/multiw-2.370
does now.
Reset 'x_inited' after the various widgets have been released
during shutdown.
This might prevent the second panic ('X11_mark_synch()' during
emergency save) in the double panic reported in a later comment of
github issue #569. It definitely doesn't address whatever caused
the first panic, nor the poor handling of missing fonts that was
apparently responsible for #569's initial report.
Add a 3rd multi-window include file that comes after compiler.370.
Relocate a small section of Makefile lines common to both macOS.370
and linux.370 to multiw-3.370.
Also relocate a section near the tail of compiler.370 that really
has nothing to do with compilers or compiler flags, but was
related to Qt which is one of the supported multi-window interfaces.
Condense the setup of PCHAR/PCHAR2 and OBJCLASS/OBJCLASS2 (last one
renamed from OBJCLASS7) so that it's easier to see the variations
at once on an ordinary size terminal/window. Revise some of the
indentation and other spacing, also to try to enhance readability
a little.
Unrelated: remove a trailing space that crept in with a recent pull
request.
As far as I know, there's no such thing as WIN32_GRAPHICS in the
current source tree. The Windows graphical port uses the preprocessor
macro MSWIN_GRAPHICS.
Some recent testing with a multi-platform compiler encountered difficulty
with the use of a variable 'near' (and presumably 'far', but we don't have
any of those in the source tree) due to reserved word extensions.
Avoid using that as a variable name.
Now, the only usage of GCC_WARN is for the guard of PRINTF_F in wincurs.h.
This guard can be removed safely, as PRINTF_F is already used unconditionally in extern.h.
Permit levelport by name to "delphi". That is what the Oracle calls the
level (or at least her room) in-game, so it seems like a natural guess
for the name of the level.
We don't know at compile time whether the X server even supports
Unicode. So take the configured map font, change the registry to
ISO10646 and try the resulting font string. Keep the configured
font if that doesn't work.
Older X servers don't understand "Fuchsia," and NetHack throws
impossibles as a result. The current Xorg defines "magenta" as the
same color as "Fuchsia," namely #FF00FF, and older X servers
understand "magenta."
The resulting X11 NetHack is known to work with XFree86 4.2.0.
The minimum version remains undetermined.
GCCs older than 3.1 understand __attribute__(printf(...)), but only
with functions; it doesn't work with function pointers. This change
uses PRINTF_F_PTR to remove the attribute from two function pointers.
This change establishes GCC 3.0 as the minimum version to build
NetHack. Older versions have trouble with the variadic macros and
variable declarations in mid-block.
Make the existing '#vanquished' command be available during regular
play, with M-V bound to it. 'm #vanquished' or 'm M-V' brings up
the sorting menu that you get when answering 'a' rather than 'y' at
the end-of-game "disclose vanquished creatures?" prompt.
The original #vanquished came from slash'em, where it was available
in normal play. When added to nethack, it was put in as wizard-mode-
only. I added the sorting capability several years ago.
The chosen sort is remembered and re-used if not reset but only for
the remainder of the current session. It probably ought of become
a run-time option so be settable in advance and across sessions but
I haven't done that.
This fixes the problem with reporting "the <foo> option may not
both have a value and be negated" to stdout if delivered before the
interface has been set up, so possibly not be seen. It has been
using pline_The() but that uses rawprint() during startup.
Unfortunately testing it has uncovered another config file error
reporting issue and this one won't be so easy to fix. For a logical
line that uses backslash+newline continuations to span multiple
physical lines, when there is a problem it reports the line number
and text of the last segment rather than of the first or of the
specific segment containing the problem. That isn't necessarily
wrong but is suboptimal.
Pull request from entrez: attempting to unname a unique monster or
shopkeeper by assigning a new name of <space> was rejected as
intended, but the rejection message is phrased strangely when <space>
gets inserted as the name that won't be assigned.
Fixes#917
The message for trying to (re)name an unnameable monster was weird when
the player entered a blank name (a name consisting of only spaces), in
an attempt to delete the monster's existing name rather than give it a
new one. Several of the normal messages looked incomplete due to using
the blank string as the "new name" (e.g., "I'm Feyfer, not ."), and the
one which didn't include the name still seemed a little off ("calling
names" is almost the opposite of what the player is doing). Add a new
message for attempting to erase the name of one of the special
unnameable monsters, e.g. "Juiblex would rather keep his existing name"
or "The Oracle would rather keep her existing title".
I also noticed that the message for trying to give an unrenameable
monster the name it already has (e.g. trying to name Death "Death") was
revealing the genders of the Riders with personal pronouns. This is
avoided elsewhere (e.g. using "the way" in mdisplacem, "its" baked
into the message in mhitm_ad_deth), so I also added a slightly rephrased
alternate message for Riders which avoids any pronouns. For the
unnaming message, on the other hand, I just used "its" for the Riders,
since I couldn't think of a way to phrase it that avoided pronouns
entirely.
