This is a fix for H4101, bz192.
add non-audio (felt) outcome to yelp()
This also add #wizintrinsic command because testing this was a pain
without a simple, straightforward way to go deaf that didn't time-out
before the situation being tested recurred.
Last few && or || followed by end-of-line comments, plus tab replacement
and 'return' parentheses. Not as many of those; some of these files had
already had that done.
Also, tweaked non-cursed scroll of charging read while confused to be a
tiny bit more effective.
To do: find and fix block comments that immediately follow a line with
an end-of-line comment and got misindented to line up with that comment.
Replace instances of strings split across lines which rely on C89/C90
implicit concatenation of string literals to splice them together
with single strings that are outdented relative to the code that uses
them. It's uglier but it won't break compile for pre-ANSI compilers.
This covers many files in src/ that only have one or two such split
strings. There are several more files which have three or more. Those
will eventually be '(2 of 2)'.
Noticed along the way: the fake mail message/subject
Report bugs to devteam@nethack.org.
wasn't using its format string of "Report bugs to %s.", so would have
just shown our email address. Doesn't anybody enable fake mail anymore?
I modified that format to enclose the address within angle brackets and
made a similar change for the 'contact' choice of the '?' command.

Add a couple more tribute easter eggs.
- can lead to a remark by Death if you happen to have a pratchett book on
your person, as suggested by M. Stephenson (fat chance you will, or
think to #chat if you do, but it could be a tournament novelty or something
obscure to strive for).
- can draw some additional Death quotes from the tribute file. (There's two
in there right now. If anyone wants to add or suggest some more, please go
ahead. The Death quotes are at the end of the tribute file. One-liners
only please or the code will only pull the last line.
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!
Instead of just "while helpless", the death reason will tell
more explicitly why the player was helpless. For example:
"while frozen by a monster's gaze"
Suggested by <email deleted>, chatting to a gecko will
give a reference to GEICO's car insurance ads. I limited it to when
the hero is hallucinating. Chatting to a gecko monster, or to anything
capable of speaking--except for a couple of previously handled special
cases, like quest leader--which happens to look like a gecko at the time,
or (50:50 chance) to a shopkeeper regardless of appearance, you'll get
"15 minutes can save you 15 zorkmids", parodying "15 minutes can save you
15% or more on car insurance". (One of my comments says there's a chance
to interfere with shopping, but that's not accurate since using #chat to
get shop price quotes doesn't use the monster-response routine. I left
that comment in anyway; the "15 minutes" response might interfere afterall
if someone mistakenly thinks they can save gold by waiting that long
before paying their shopping bill.)
I don't think we ever found a good place to add some reference to
GEICO's other--and more relevant to nethack--slogan, "so easy a caveman
can do it".
add SYSCF docs to the Guidebook because it's info needed in a binary distro
Guidebook.tex - also add some missing italics to some "NetHack" occurances
call nethack.org "official"
Guidebook.txt - didn't regenerate cleanly so no diff
add SEDUCE to SYSCF (only partly inspired by the recent email)
From the newsgroup: attempting to #chat to a gnome elicited "the
gnome grunts" (because gnomes have MS_ORC sound, and MS_ORC is just a
synonym for MS_GRUNT) even when the hero was a gnome. This patch makes
MS_ORC (orcs, gnomes, kobolds, a couple of named demons) or MS_GRUNT
(ogres, ettins, trolls, gargoyles) behave as MS_HUMANOID when the hero
has same race. That by itself wasn't quite enough; hostile MS_HUMANOID
monsters other than fake players wouldn't respond, so this gives those
a generic message (threatening the hero). In a somewhat similar case,
peaceful MS_CUSS monsters wouldn't respond; now they say something too.
From the newsgroup: player chatted with leader and was ejected for
not being high enough level, then when he came back later there was no
leader to be found, but there was a polymorph trap on quest home level.
This makes quest leaders and nemesis be aware of all trap types--rather
than just having leaders be aware of magic portals--so they'll be able to
avoid polymorph traps. It also makes chatting with a polymorphed leader
work as long as the new form is able to speak (use same criteria as with
poly'd shopkeepers: can't be in a form that's limited to animal sounds).

Sources tagged before applying NETHACK_PRE_STATUE,
and afterwards with NETHACK_POST_STATUE for easy
rollback.
The devteam feedback was to place casts in the code
in question.
This puts explicit casts on some code that was being
compiled into 'int64' then stuffed into smaller types with
VC2005.
- remove an unreferenced variable
- continue with recent code trend towards having DEADMONSTER()
check in its own if/continue statement in a few more places
The user (<email deleted>) who recently suggested a
dump command for containers also wanted atmospheric sounds on levels which
have altars. Right now we'd have to find unattended altars the hard way
(by scanning the entire level) but we could add a counter (or set of
counters, one per alignment) like for fountains and sinks if we really
wanted to do that. [Now that I think about it, the #overview patch may
have already done something of the sort.] But what noises would an altar
be expected to produce? This only adds sounds for temples, where the
attending priest can be the source of the noise.
I'm not real thrilled with the initial set of sounds, particularly
the hallucinating one, but the implementation works. The "carcass" one is
a little clumsy; it's intended to add a hint for new players who haven't
figured out what the #offer command does.

I don't have a clue what they should say, this only deals with
what they shouldn't say.
Note: The CVS repository was tagged with NETHACK_PRE_MEXTRA
prior to application of this patch to allow easy withdrawal if necessary.
Adds a new mextra structure type that has a set
of pointers to various types of monster structures
including:
mname, egd, epri, eshk, emin, edog
Replaces the mextra bits in the monst structure
with a single pointer called mtmp->mextra of type
(struct mextra *).
The pointer can be null if there are no additional
structures attached. The mextra structure is not
adjacent to the monst structure.
Reduces the in-memory footprint of the monst that
has no other structures attached, at the cost
of adding 6 extra long ints per monster to
the save file
The new mextra structure has the mextra fields
independent of each other, not overlapping as was
the case with previous NetHack versions.
This patch doesn't do anything to capitalize on
that difference however.
Consolidates vault.h, epri.h, eshk.h, emin.h and edog.h
into mextra.h
Adds a macro for checking for whether a monster has
a name:
has_name(monst)
This fixes the magic trap panic
expels() -> spoteffects() -> dotrap() ->
domagictrap() -> tamedog()
because the monst no longer varies in size so no
replacement is required.
For "the hair on the back of your neck stands up" or "the hair on
your head seems to stand up" make subject and verb agree when poly'd into
forms where "hair" is replaced by something explicitly plural like "scales"
or "cilia".
Finally apply the patch sent by <Someone> in 11/2003 for slashem-Bugs-799278,
updated to match the current code and handle additional cases. The fix
is brute force: always ensure nomovemsg is set when nomul is called with
a negative value. I also scanned the code for places manually setting
multi negative, they all set nomovemsg. It would be nice to have a function
that did the right thing, but there are several special cases and I was
not feeling creative.
