comments: Sometimes when I'm standing next to my pet the @ turns grey, it goes
back to white after I move.
I didn't mean to override for any color in the mask. My
earlier patch caused it to make green, blue, or red all
become black (which still looked better than white on
grey).
This gets it right (famous last words), and only makes
the text character's color black if it is actually white
or bright white.
when hilite_pet was enabled. After checking into it, the
test was looking for the value:
(FOREGROUND_GREEN|FOREGROUND_BLUE|FOREGROUND_RED)
which signifies a white color on win32 console I/O. The
problem was that in some cases that was OR'd with
something else such as FOREGROUND_INTENSITY.
Fix it by checking only the bits that matter when
turning on the attribute.
Add absent prototypes to some core routines.
Also add some port function() to function(void) in some win32 routines.
Also updates the Borland C Makefile for win32.
The following fixes several bugs:
1) Mismatch between docs and game in definition of what '+' resolved in
favor of docs...
2) When game needs to be recovered a message box is shown. This is a very
deprecated fix. It pretty much answers just the conditions that require
this (a yn question to an erroneous winid), and is not useful for other
purposes.
3) The score file is written.
