MSGTYPE allows the user to define how messages in the message
area behave. For example:
MSGTYPE=stop "You swap places with "
would always make that message prompt for -more-. Allowed types
are "show" (normal message), "hide" (do not show), "stop" (wait
for user), and "norep" (do not repeat message).
Adding this, because it's relatively simple, proven to work, and
it seemed to be the major thing betatesters felt was lacking when
compared to NAO.
I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!

Groundwork for cleaning up the X11 sources, where gcc with the option
settings specified in the OSX hints file currently generates close to
400 warnings for win/X11/*.c.
lint.h is included by hack.h, and I've moved the debugpline stuff from
the latter to the former to hide it better. (By rights it belongs in
debug.h or something of the sort, but I didn't want to go that far.)
Makefile and project dependencies need to catch up.
nhStr() hides a cast to char *, and is intended to by used on string
literals where it isn't feasible to maintain the 'const' attribute.
(A pernicious problem with X11 code, where the include situation can
become very convoluted, and many, MANY string literals are hidden
behind macros to look like keyword-type tokens.)
nhUse() can be used to force a fake usage on something which triggers
an unused parameter warning. There are a 6 or 8 or 10 places in the
core code where that applies, but so far I have't touched any of them.
There's a tradeoff since it will result in some worthless code being
generated and executed, but is much simpler than tacking on compiler-
specific workarounds like '#pragma unused' or gcc's __attribute__ hack.

Add 'o' to "i a v g c" disclosure set, to display final dungeon
overview at end of game. It lists all levels visited rather than just
those that #overview considers to be interesting, but it doesn't reveal
any undiscovered aspects of those levels except for the presence of bones.
(I think revealing shops and altars and such would be worthwhile, but the
data for that isn't handy at the time.) If the game ends due to death,
the bones section of the current level will have "you, <reason you died>"
(before any real bones entries for that level). That occurs before bones
file creation so it doesn't give away whether bones are being saved.
end.c includes some unrelated lint cleanup.
Guidebook.{mn,tex} updates the section for autopickup_exceptions as
well as for disclose. It had some odd looking indentation due to various
explicit paragraph breaks. I took "experimental" out of its description
since it was moved out of the experimental section of config.h long ago.
The revised Guidebook.tex is untested.
Rename ``kickobj'' to ``kickedobj'' so that the tense matches that
of ``thrownobj''. Also, move their declarations to decl.h and their
definitions to decl.c since usage has spread from dokick.c/dothrow.c to
various files and is about to expand to another one.
On crash signal or panic(), use a configurable method to get a stacktrace
the user can easily report to us. Currently only for Unix/Linux and only

Bits:
- linux hints file had PREFIX definition in the wrong place
- sample sysconf file used wrong delimiter for WIZARDS
- fix grammar error in support message when using sysconf.wizards
- options.c comment typo
- capitalize "Crash test" output from #panic command
The dungeon_overview bits in the rm structure were being
clobbered by a run-length encoding save/restore because
they weren't taken into consideration.
This patch pulls that data out of the rm structure completely.
It also adjusts the run-length encoding checks to take the
candig bit into consideration and adds a comment to rm.h
reminding people to make run-length encoding adjustments
in save.c for any new bits that get added.
It always struck me as odd that x_maze_max and y_maze_max were
initialized in main(). They're only needed when making new levels, so
don't have to come before saved game restoration. They could easily have
gone into init_dungeon() (although they make well predate that), or even
mklev() (reinitializing them for each new level wouldn't have been a big
deal). That's all moot, though, since it's trivial to initialize them at
compile time.
I almost abandoned this when Michael beat me to it, but besides
handling the fruit rename bug it also moves `current_fruit' into the
context structure to eliminate separate save/restore for that.

There was an issue reported where save files between different
versions of a manufacturer's compiler were incompatible because the time_t
ubirthday field was changed from 32 bits to 64 bits.
32 bit time_t implementations will break at 19:14:07 on January 18, 2038.
64 bit time_t implementations will break at 23:59:59 on December 31, 3000.
This removes the dependency on the size of time_t from the save file.
The ubirthday field is no longer embedded in struct you.
This also adds two general purpose routines to hacklib.c, one to convert a time
value to a 14 character char representation and the other to convert that
back to time_t. Those are used by the save/restore routines.
This is a savefile breaking change, so editlevel in patchlevel.h was
incremented.
Get rid of most of the vestiges of the old warning code that was
replaced over 7 years ago. I left the list of colors which were used for
warning flashes.
This patch attempts to add some levels of unicode support
to NetHack.
The master on/off switch for any Unicode support is
defining UNICODE_SUPPORT in config.h. Currently
there is code support for two subsets of unicode support:
UNICODE_DRAWING
If UNICODE_DRAWING is defined, then the data
structures used to house drawing symbols are expanded
to the size of wchar_t, big enough to hold unicode characters.
A typdef called `nhsym' is involved and if UNICODE_DRAWING
is defined, it is wchar_t, otherwise it is uchar.
UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
If UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT is defined, then the data
structures inside the window port are expanded to the size of
wchar_t, big enough to hold unicode characters. Both map
symbols and text within the window port are expanded, in order
for potential support for displaying multinational characters some
day, but this patch only provides viewing of map symbols.
A typdef called `nhwchar' is involved and if UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
is defined, it is wchar_t, otherwise it is char.
The only window port with code support for UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
currently is the TTY port. Don't enable UNICODE_WIDEWINPORT
unless:
- it is a TTY port
- the underlying platform specific routines can
handle the larger data structures.
Don't enable UNICODE_SUPPORT unless:
- your compiler can handle wchar_t.
- your compiler can accept L'a' characters.
- your compiler can accept L"wide" strings.
Note that if your compiler can handle the above, you could
enable the larger data structures (currently if TTY) even if your
platform can't actually display unicode or UTF-8, by messing
with u_putch() in win/tty/wintty.c to only deal regular chars.
That should be the only function that actually pushes wide characters
out to the display.
If you enable UNICODE_SUPPORT, and your platform is capable
you will need to turn on the unicode run-time option to be able to
load unicode character sets from the symbol file, to be able to
push unicode characters to the display. You'll also want to load
a unicode symbol set once the unicode option is toggled on. In
a config file you would do that via these two lines:
OPTIONS=unicode
OPTIONS=symset:Unicode_non_US
The repository was stamped with NETHACK_PRE_UNICODE
prior to applying this patch, and stamped with
NETHACK_POST_UNICODE afterwards. The code differences
between those two tagged versions are this patch.
I'm pretty sure that some pre-standard compilers don't know how to
apply an initializer to a variable of type union. Unfortunately, I don't
have access to one to check. Fortunately, there's no need to explicitly
initialize `zeroany' since the default value is what we want--the first
field will be set to zero or null as appropriate (null in this case).
Strictly speaking, this isn't adequate; what if long is wider than a
pointer rather than narrower? Using `= {DUMMY}' didn't handle that case
either; the ordering of the union's fields controls which bits get stored.
As a practical matter, it should make no difference. As long as the code
reading a union accesses the same field as the code writing that union set
up in it, anything in extraneous bits should be irrelevant--except perhaps
when a debugger tries to format things. The whole issue has always been
implicitly based on the assumption that null pointers have all bits zero
in the first place; that's typical but not guaranteed.
Remove several duplicate includes I discovered while reconciling the
vms Makefile. All of these are already being brought in via hack.h so don't
need to be explicitly included after it.
o Add support for zlib compression via ZLIB_COMP in config.h (ZLIB_COMP
and COMPRESS are mutually exclusive).
o rlecomp and zerocomp are run time options available if RLECOMP and
ZEROCOMP are defined, but not turned on by default if either COMPRESS
or ZLIB_COMP are defined.
o Add information to the save file about internal compression options
used when writing the save file, particularly rlecomp and zerocomp
support.
o Automatically adjust rlecomp and zerocomp (if support compiled in)
when reading in an existing savefile that was saved with those options
turned on. Still allows writing out of savefile in preferred format.
o In order to support zlib and not conflict with compress and uncompress
routines there, the NetHack internal functions were changed to
nh_uncompress and nh_compress as done in the zlib contribution received
in 1999 from <Someone>.
I tagged the sources NETHACK_3_5_0_PREZLIB prior to applying these
changes.

- gcc warned that the "anything" initializer needed more braces
- gcc also warned of a couple unused variables
- WIN_STATUS, when STATUS_VIA_WINDOWPORT is not defined, had no type
Introduction of a new set of window port status display
routines. The new routines are conditional on
STATUS_VIA_WINDOWPORT
being defined in config.h. See the experimental section,
where the #define resides for the time being.
Introduce a new set of functions to manage delayed killers in the trunk, used
in addressing the various reports of delayed killer confusion. Since existing
delayed killers are related to player properties, the delayed killers are
keyed by uprop indexes. I did this to avoid adding yet another set of
similar identifiers.
- the new delayed_killer() is used for stoning, sliming, sickness, and
delayed self-genocide while polymorphed. Some other timed events don't
use it (and didn't use the old delayed_killer variable) because they
use a fixed message when the timeout occurs.
- A new data structure, struct kinfo, is used to track both delayed and
immediate killers. This encapsulates all the info involved with
identifying a killer. The structure contains a buffer, which subsumes the
old killer_buf and several other buffers that didn't/couldn't use killer_buf.
- the killer list is saved and restored as part of the game state.
- the special case of usick_cause was removed and a delayed killer list
entry is now used in its place
- common code dealing with (un)sliming is moved to a new make_slimed function
- attempted to update all make dependencies for new end.c -> lev.h

This patch:
- collects all context/tracking related fields from flags
into a new structure called "context."
It also adds the following to the new structure:
- stethoscope turn support
- victual support
- tin support
The NOCWD_ASSUMPTIONS conditional code allows readonly
parts of NetHack to be separated from areas that require write-access.
This allows the recent panic log needed a prefix.
Replace "feature_toggle" implementation with an easier-to-understand
boolean option called "lootabc".
Provide "showrace", an option to display the hero by race glyph rather
than by role glyph.
Document the above.
Remove some obsolete Mac options.
This adds a generic feature_toggle mechanism to
the game. Code that wants to offer two different
ways of doing something can add an entry to
feature_toggles[] (in decl.c), and create a
preprocessor macro for its array index in decl.h.
Then the code can test it using
if (feature_toggle(FEATURE_NAME))
..do_this..
else
..do_that..
The player can toggle the alternate code path
on using OPTIONS=feature_toggle:feature_name_1 feature_name_2 ...
This seems better than creating brand new options
for controlling features (ala prayconfirm, which
could switch to this single option feature_toggle
mechanism as well)
My first use of it is to allow toggling of the selectors
on the loot menu, which I'm hesitant to just change back
because now people are actively using the new selectors and
the complaints would be really loud if the interface were
to just switch back after they adjusted.
The default behaviour is the new behaviour "iob", but with an
OPTIONS=feature_toggle:loot_menu_selectors
in your config file, it will revert to using "abc" as it did
in 3.3.1. I'll add a Guidebook page of "features/behaviour
that can be toggled" later.
The toggles can only be done in defaults.nh, and are
not saved with the game.
