would describe it as trapped if you could see its location, but if
the trap was unseen that trap would remain unseen, at least in some
circumstances. Mark the trap as seen.
Wizard mode ^E and any mode spell of detect unseen or wand of secret
door detection failed to find mon->mundetected monsters if they were
hiding under objects, and failed to find those or other hiders or
mimics when the hidden monster was at a trap location. The fix for
the latter initially only worked if the trap was known, so took two
tries when a monster hid at the location of an unseen trap. So this
makes the additional change to find both things at the same time; it
isn't manual searching that stops as soon as something is found.
For ^X and final disclosure, report external issues that affect game
play: midnight, other night, new or full moon, and Friday the 13th.
The 'new feature' entry in the fixes file rambles a bit but if it
heads off even one spurious bug report, it'll have been worth it.
When kicking an altar, trigger divine wrath (minor: luck or alignment
loss) before deciding whether hero has hurt himself in the process.
Add some variation to the wrath penalty so that it can't be used to
precisely control Luck.
Typing ^H actually passed a 16-bit value back to the core which got
interpreted as ^G after the extra bits were discarded. I don't think
any previous changes to the curses interface caused this. It's
astonishing that no one ever noticed; the world must be full of numpad
users.
When mklev() is called multiple times, previous state stored in the
xxstairs_room pointers can be mistakenly used when making decisions about
the new level being constructed. This caused non-deterministic level
creation behavior when replaying from a snapshot.
With 'popup_dialog' On, a prompt which exactly fills the available
width would start the next line with a space (to separate the prompt
from user's answer) and then have the cursor waiting after it. That's
unlike other behavior in the curses interface where the line split
would be instead of the separating space rather than in addition to it.
Old:
|long prompt?|
| X__________|
New:
|long prompt?|
|X___________|
where the X represents the cursor sitting over the start of blank space
waiting for user's answer.

When swallowed, you can take things from the engulfer's inventory, if
there are any, via pickup. Items might be worn by the engulfer and
when "picked up" those weren't being unworn before being added to
hero's inventory. Then they would be formatted as "(being worn)" and
could trigger warnings or worse.
Conceptually they should be worn on the outside and not be accessible
from the inside, so I've made attempts to pick up worn items fail
rather than fix up the unwearing.
Using ':' when swallowed to look at the engulfer's inventory describes
that inventory as "contents of <mon>'s stomach". That's weird for any
worn items, but the situation is so rare I haven't made any attempt to
deal with it.
Rescue some old code from bit rot. It may be useful if the shop
side of things ever gets fixed. (Itemized billing reveals container
contents. I'm sure that it's in the bugzilla list but can't find it.)
Noticed after building a curses-only binary; configuration setting
"terminal info library" is only of interest as an optional feature
when the build includes tty. There were several other settings that
apply to some interfaces and not others but would be listed if the
feature was defined (possibly after building for an interface which
supported it, then left in place when switching to another which
doesn't).
I left most of those with commented out conditionals in case other
interfaces start supporting them. So you might still get something
like "tiles file in XPM format" for a binary that doesn't support
tiles if USE_XPM has been defined for some reason.
If a player names an object with a name that ends in '\\', drops
that object on the floor nearby and does a look at nearby objects,
then the game will crash. This is caused by stack corruption when
the decode loop skips over the decode string terminator.
Extend support for highlight rules that specify percentages from HP
and spell power to experience level and experience points. For both
of those, the percentage is based on progress from the start of the
current Xp level to the start of the next Xp level. 100% isn't
possible so is used to enable highlighting a special case: 1 point
shy of next level, most likely to occur after losing a level.
This is something I had in mind a long time ago and then forgot all
about until fiddling with the final disclosure of experience points
recently. It turned out to be trickier than expected because it needs
to check whether Xp should have a status update when it hasn't changed
but Exp has gone up. The latter might hit a percentage threshold that
switches to another highlight rule. Fortunately changes to Exp, at
least that aren't part of level gain or loss (which always trigger
status updating), are all funnelled through a single place (I hope).
Highlighting via attributes got broken three months ago. May or
may not have been noticeable depending upon which attributes are
supported. Too many variations of attribute designations...
If you ask for help when wishing, don't leave "help" in the buffer
for EDIT_GETLIN to use as default answer on next retry. It does still
leave anything rejected as unknown so that the player has a change to
review the spelling and conceivably add and/or remove from the end
witout having to retype everything.
When I implemented getmsghistory()/putmsghistory() for curses I was
assuming that DUMPLOG would only be used with tty, but it is interface
neutral and can be used with curses (or others). So curses message
history needs to behave like tty message history and be sure to pass
along messages that bypass pline() and the normal message window.
(Mainly one-line summaries of long quest messages, but also old
messages fetched from a save file and available to be re-saved without
having been shown if new session doesn't generate enough new messages
to flush them.)
