The pet image was garbled because it was reduced to the size of the pet mark
bitmap
in the function that draws pet mark transparently over the pet tile (32x32
image was reduced to 16x16 and then stretched again)
Also added: use Windows-provided TransparentBlt where available.

mailversion: 1.10
nhversion: 3.4.0
nhfrom: 3.4.0 Official binary release for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/Me/XP
(nh340win.zip)
hardware: 1 Ghz AMD Athlon, 512 MB RAM etc. etc.
I don't think that the hardware is related to the problem because I found it.
software: I used Win 98 (1st edition) and MS VC++ 6.0 to find/fix the bug in
Nethack 3.4.0.
comments: steps to crash: start nethackw.exe - start a game - select "fit to
sreen" in the map menue - rezize the map until it is very very small -> crash
- a couple of README updates
- some color changes for windowcolors
- prevent crash From a bug report, but better than a crash. It
probably renders the map_mode:fit_to_screen ignored in defaults.nh.
part 2 touches only port files
Makes Borland happy with current sources.
Fixes bug in WM_PAINT handling in rip/splash code.
Fixes getline() bug (H0009)
Tidies up source.
Fixes up copyright notices.
Adds TODO docs for Borland. (Removes "TODO" note)
Small changes to defaults formatting.
Fixes ALT key on Graphical Port non NetHack mode.
Hilites pet in Graphical Port text mode.
Also Implements windowcolors for status and message window in graphical port.
On graphical port,
tested to see it actually works.
Tested on platforms Makefile MSC/BCC Graphical/Console, MSC IDE for
compile and run and performing hilite pet in graphical text, not
displaying rawio, alt key.
accelerators).
[...]
- added F4/F5 functionality - same as in MSDOS port
F4 toggles between fitting the tiled display to the screen
and full size (compresses the tiles to fit / uncompresses).
F5 alternates between ascii and tiles.
- added support for wc_vary_msgcount
- added support for new options
- fixed couple of typos in options.c
- added sunken edge around message window
- added capability to replace font in the font table (if we will want to
change font sizes dynamically later)
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.
- B1026 [confirmed] win32: setting multiple options
- bugfix: menu: set focus to the item and make it visible when it is
selected with accelerator key.
- increased menu font size by 1 point
- layout the main window on WM_MOVE message so the menu windows stays with
the main window (it was not changing the location before)
- got rid of WinCE specific define (ARM)
- handle all keyboard input via WM_KEYDOWN instead WM_CHAR
Files affected: config1.h mhmsg.h mhmain.c mhmenu.c mswproc.c resource.h
winhack.rc
Notes:
That overrides Yitzhak's mhmenu patch - I don't like the menu prompt on the
title bar since it can be null and in most cases it is. It looks much better
as a header column in the list and is displayed only if present.
I moved ARM-related (processor) defines to wceconf.h You cannot undef ARM
before windows.h is processed - ARM version won't compile.
.rc files are generated by IDE - you cannot edit them directly or your
changes will be gone next time the file is saved. If anything needs to be
added to winhack.rc file manually it has to be marked by the following
defines or via menu option View->Resource Includes:
#define APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
...
#undef APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
B2001 <Someone> [reported] win32?: giant ant is black square
Where is the open doorway with the giant ant standing in it?
There used to be a closed door there, if I recall correctly.
[now there is just a black square]
I'm saving the level files at this point, and I will be saving
the game after I did that, in case you're interested in any save
files.
Fixes:
- menu shortcuts implemented
- most windows close on space (except for menus with
PICK_ANY style)
- "hilite_pet" option is implemented
- map scrolling is improved somewhat (it now scrolls if
the char is within 5 spaces from the edge of the map -
configurable by #define CLIPAROUND_MARGIN)
- added 3 winhack-specific options:
win32_map_mode:[tiles|ascii4x6|ascii6x8|ascii8x8
|ascii16x8|ascii7x12|ascii8x12|ascii15x12
|ascii12x16|ascii10x18|fit_to_screen]=20
win32_align_status:[left|top|right|bottom]
win32_align_message:[left|top|right|bottom]
Note: aligning status window to left or right edge of the screen does
not look good.
This was caused by character set incompatibility between message and map
windows. Apparently, Nethack is using IBM character set (CP 437) but fonts
were create for Windows ANSI codepage. I fixed most of it by changing
character set of the fonts except for the Rogue level. I had to make changes
to src/drawing.c for Rogue level since most of Windows fonts are not capable
of displaying control characters (char. code<0x20)
And of course, disabling IBMGraphics option fixes it all.

-Adds Rogue-level ascii support.
-Also removes unicode support.
Some other build script tweaks as well.
