README - add VMS back as a tested platform; thanks KevinS!
dat/history - add VMS update, remove trailing whitespace, two spaces;
instead of just one (recently added stuff) for sentence separation;
sys/vms/Install.vms - minimal update;
Files - reformat the win32 project section to fit within 80 columns.
Bustling Town can be generated with inaccessible areas outside the
top edge of the fixed town map. If you end up in one of those area
without any way to dig or teleport, you're stuck.
This adds a new level flag "inaccessibles" to force checking for
such inaccessible areas, and add secret doors, holes/trapdoors,
or some random escape item into the areas.
I changed the first quote to use the American spelling (snowplow vs
snowplough) found in the edition I have on hand.
Passages for several more books are still queued up. Transcribing them
is very tedious.
I have several psssages for Maskerade too, but after the time and effort
spent fixing up the ones already present for that book, they'll have to
wait until some other occasion.
Add summary lines for the deliver-by-window messages of the Healer
quest. Also, replace a bunch of hard-coded pronouns for leader,
nemesis, and in one case, patron deity in the Healer messages plus
the three roles which precede it (Arc, Bar, Cav).
The breakfast+coffee+doughnut one is by the far the longest we've had,
but I decided not to try trimming any of it out. It was at the start
of a 10 page stretch that has six good passages, but I've only included
three of them.
I've got passages for two more books queued up, but transcribing and
proofreading is a chore....
Clean up some of the epitaphs. Mostly to always use two spaces when
separating sentences.
A lot of them have terminating punctuation, and a lot of them don't.
I mostly left those alone; should they be made consistent?
It's a lot of passages, even when leaving out ones about Cresote and
King Midas (or whatever name his Discworld analog has), Nanny Ogg's cat,
Ridcully's custom made wizard hat, and the mention of a law which
requires that bystanders be warned before commencing to play folk music.
Changes to be committed:
modified: dat/tribute
I've also added some of Boudewijn's suggestions and
added his name in a comment for easy reference
when validating the content agains the book.
