fixes#151
Life-saving was setting u.uswldtim to 0, presumably intending that
to stop the hero from being digested, but it actually resulted in
being totally digested on the swallower's next turn if the death
being short-circuited wasn't digestion. Change life-saving to make
swallower or grabber release the hero instead of tinkering with
u.uswldtim. In addition to rescuing the hero from digestion, it
prevents an eel which has just drowned the hero (who has survived
drowning via life-saving) from pulling him/her back into the water
on its next turn. It will need to make another successful grab to
do that now.
While testing, I noticed that if I was polymorphed and wearing an
amulet of unchanging, life-saving didn't restore my HP-as-a-monster
and due to the recent change to force that to 0 when the hero dies,
I died again immediately after my life was saved. So this bug was
latent in the past and became noticeable in the last couple of days.
Report was for being fried by angry deity. There are lots of deaths
that don't involve subtracting HP until it hits 0 or less; I haven't
bothered tracking down which ones don't set u.uhp to 0 before they
call done().
No effect on life-saving or declining to die except for HP:0 being
visible on the status line during their messages.
Dungeon level wasn't included in ^X output, so it wasn't actually
giving all status fields and attempting to rely on it when turning
off 'status_updates' was leaving a gap in feedback for the player.
Add an extra line to the first section where character's name and
patron deity are reported, giving current location.
|You are in the Dungeons of Doom, on level 5.
or
|You are in the endgame, on the Elemental Plane of Fire.
The information is more explicit than the basic status field, but
you can already get similar information via #overview so it isn't
giving away extra info.

This is usually fixed on a case by case basis. Any attempt to add
blanket encumbrance check mid-turn (when updating status, for instance)
is sure to introduce message sequencing problems. Perhaps such a check
could be added at the end of the hero's move....
This fix handles the cases where prayer causes a change to strength:
major: fix starvation, minor: fix weak from hunger, boon: golden glow
(restore strength and satisfy hunger--probably no-ops in this regard
or would have had trouble fixed rather than receive a boon). Directly
curing stat loss (minor: poisoned) already dealt with encumbrance.

Not at all related. That movement bug affected 3.6.0 but was fixed in
3.6.1.
When trapped in a web, trying to move while wielding Sting gives the
message "Sting cuts through the web." In 3.6.1 and earler, that
also released you from the trap, but with 3.6.2-beta nothing happens.
It had nothing to do with the recent web spinning patch. My change
to have being trapped block levitating and flying included replacing
a lot of direct manipulations of u.utrap with set_utrap() and
reset_utrap() in order to keep the lev/fly blocking and unblocking
localized. Unfortunately, the old 'u.utrap = 0' when wielding Sting
while stuck in web was deleted in error at that time.
While looking at something else, I noticed that newsym() was checking
for pool and lava by examining the terrain type directly rather than
using the pool and lava checks, so it would never show a gas cloud at
a closed drawbridge (the spot in front of the portcullis). Level's
terrain at a closed drawbridge spot is DRAWBRIDGE_UP; need to look at
drawbridgemask field to figure out whether the accessible terrain at
that spot is moat or lava.
Set X resource NetHack*fancy_status: False to enable the TTY-style
status lines. Default is the fancy status.
This patch is somewhat unfinished - even though the TTY-style status
allow for status hilites, the colors don't work correctly yet.
Also changes the fancy status to use the windowport notification code.
mons[].difficulty takes over for monstr[]
Invoking "makedefs -m" gives a deprecation message; it is also included
in the (now mostly empty) monstr.c.
Ports should now remove "makedefs -m" from their build procedures but this
commit does not include that change.

This started out as some formatting cleanup for src/windows.c but
ended up removing calloc() from the WINCHAIN code, plus fixing a
couple of compiler complaints for win/chain/wc_trace.c.
I tried to actually run with +trace enabled and never managed to
get anything to happen. trace_procs_init() was never called. I've
never tried to use it before so don't know whether something which
used to work has gotten broken or I'm just doing it wrong.
Fixes#38
In 3.6.1, some code in mfind0(detect.c) was mis-indented in a way
which suggested that the grouping within braces might not be what was
intended, and that was right--there was a pair of braces missing when
compared with older versions of the code involved. A previous patch
(post-#38) had changed the indentation to match the surrounding braces
without really addressing the issue. But it turned out not to make
any difference either way since mundetected is only used by hiders
and eels. This reorganizes the relevant code to make it simpler to
understand, I hope.
Dead hero's map coordinates are set to <0,0> part way through bones
creation, then were being used to record grave location for overview
feedback with "final resting place for <dead hero>" if/when another
character got those bones and found the grave (actually, spotted the
location where first hero died regardless of whether a grave gets
placed there). Record dead hero's pre-<0,0> coordinates as intended.
Not previously noticed because in wizard mode the final resting place
becomes part of overview info as soon as bones are loaded rather than
waiting for the death location to be reached.
Fixes#144
While giving a new character his/her starting equipment, don't clear
alternate weapon when putting on a shield since that weapon should
still be available to swap with primary. Affected knight's lance
and valkyrie's dagger.
Also, guard against wearing an initial shield if already wielding a
two-handed weapon, or wielding such a weapon if already wearing a
shield. Both situations are hypothetical with current starting gear.
Don't "feel like a hypocrite" when on Elberth and attacking a monster
which isn't scared by Elbereth (exception: peaceful creatures aren't
scared but attacking them in such situation is hypocritical anyway).
This means that players can use Elbereth to scare away some creatures
while continuing to fight others. Elbereth won't be automatically
erased, but weapon attacks will scuff the engraving; wand zaps don't.
Reduce the -5 alignment penalty when alignment is 5 or less. Reduced
amount is -(1..5), so -3 average.
Remove trailing spaces, and remove tabs from the files that had
trailing spaces.
Also, rndorcname() was using a random value to terminate a loop
and was recalculating a new one each iteration.
This was discussed two years ago then nothing happened. Make
autodescribe for feedback when moving the cursor to pick something
default to on instead of off.
Force trap to activate during failed untrap attempt if done while
already at the trap's location, to match the recent change in
behavior when failed attempt occurs while adjacent to the trap.
Most noticeable while flying over bear traps, but affects all
failed untrap attempts.
Make being trapped in/on/over floor block Levitation and Flying, the
way that being inside solid rock already does, and the way levitating
blocks flight.
Blocked levitation still provides enhanced carrying capacity since
magic is attempting to make the hero's body be bouyant. I think that
that is appropriate but am not completely convinced.
One thing that almost certainly needs fixing is digging a hole when
trapped in the floor or tethered to a buried iron ball, where the
first part of digactualhole() releases the hero from being trapped.
If being released re-enables blocked levitation, the further stages
of digging might not make sense in some circumstances.
I recently realized that being held by a grabbing monster is similar
to being trapped so should also interfere with levitation and flying.
Nothing here attempts to address that.
Save files change, but in a compatible fashion unless trapped at the
time of saving. If someone saves while trapped prior to this patch,
then applies it and restores, the game will behave as if the patch
wasn't in place--until escape from trap is achieved. (Not verified.)
Fix the situation of Flying hero failing to untrap a bear trap that
was resulting in the trap becoming hidden. Previous fix prevented
hero from moving onto the trap's location so that the reason for
hiding it didn't occur. This moves the hero and forces the trap,
so it will become unhidden again before there's any chance to notice
that it had been hidden.
Status 'Flying' conflicts with being trapped at floor level, but that
is a separate, known issue. I'll have to resurrect my unfinished fix
for that sooner rather than later.
For the searching capability offered by '# ?', use ':' instead of 's'
to activate it. Otherwise, if the player typed ':', menu processing
would handle that and would search the few menu entries (for selectors
'a', 's'--now ':', and maybe 'z') when we're interested in searching
the data displayed via many separator lines.
I left 's' as the selector for "show all, clear search" once a search
has been performed, but perhaps that ought to be switched to ':' too.
Demote #monpolycontrol and #wizdebug_traveldisplay from commands to
simple boolean options. The former has the same name, the latter
is called travel_debug. Rename #wizdebug_bury to #wizbury; it
shouldn't matter that it goes away when compiled without DEBUG.
There are now five wizard-mode boolean options: monpolycontrol,
sanity_check, and wizweight are documented in the Guidebook;
menu_tab_sep and travel_debug are commented out there.
Guidebook.mn has been tested; Guidebook.tex has not.
