Moved the code page 437 mapping table to winnt.c so that it could be
used in window and console clients.
Added check that fonts support unicode values we use from code page 437.
Use unicode to draw text if font supports it otherwise use ASCII.
Bug report #H7156 listed three items, all relating to perm_invent:
1) it shouldn't persist across save/restore since restore might be
on a system which doesn't have enough room to display it (report
actually complained that config file setting was ignored when
restoring old games, which is an expected side-effect for options
that persist across save/restore);
2) permanent inventory wasn't updated when using scroll of charging;
3) attempts to update permanent inventory during restore could lead
to crash if it tries to access shop cost for unpaid items.
Items (2) and (3) have already been fixed. This fixes (1).
Replace 'flags.perm_invent' with a dummy flag, preserving save files
while removing it from flags. Add 'iflags.perm_invent' to hold the
value of the perm_invent option.
The win32 files that are updated here haven't been tested. Whichever
branch contains the curses interface needs to be updated; ditto for
any other pending/potential interfaces which support perm_invent.
In nethackw, there can be conflicts between menu accelerators and an extra
choice accelerator. For example, when engraving the using fingers options
conflicts with the unselect all menu accelerator. The extra choice
accelerator should take precedence.
Fix bug where permanent inventory window would go away after
any operation that used the inventory window to pick items. Since
we were hiding the permanent inventory window, this would also
leave a space filled with white, creating jarring visual if
using dark themed window backgrounds.
This is from the pull request for the assertion failure fix. It
did not mention how to reproduce the assertion failure, just added
casts to a bunch of isspace/isprint/tolower calls that didn't already
have such.
I removed an obsolete change for win/tty/topl.c and changed the
win/win32/mswproc.c code to avoid using an expression with side-effects
(*colorstring++) in calls to tolower() in case someone overrides that
with a macro which evaluates its argument more than once as some pre-
ANSI ones used to do. Not tested, might have typos....
sys/wince/*.c still needs similar casts.
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!
-Add a boolean option menucolors to toggle menu color
-Add MENUCOLOR -config file option
TODO:
-Better support for win32
-Support more windowports
-Update Guidebook
-Allow changing menucolor lines in-game

trunk patch:
- menu: display custom tiles if map is not ASCII
- menu: display '-'/'+'/'#' in place of a tile if map is ASCII
- fix isdigit() crash on AltGr-4 with mingw
It looks kinda weird with huge tiles (e.g. absurd96) but that could
be just me. Comments/suggestions are welcome.

trunk and branch:
Do not limit role selection list by race/gender/alignment. The default.nh
selection will still be honored but the list itself will include every
possible role.
Some interface tweaks for main trunk:
- improved calculation of the size of the menu window
- made auto-arrange windows on/off option (it was reset automatically
which was unintuitive and in some cases annoying, IMO)
-better handling of "more" prompt for messages that would have scrolled off the window
-support perm_invent
-menu option to add/remove windows captions
This patch is an improvement for menu/text dialogs.
This is a code carried over from Windows CE port. It changes
text and menu windows from "system popup" to plain "child"
windows of the main nethack window. Nethack main window can
now be resized/moved/minimized when menu/text window is up.
Menu/text windows will always stay inside the main window and
move along with it.

At end of game is probably the only place, since then more than one
question is asked in the same turn. Anyhow, here's the patch, in
mswproc.c [...]
- No checkboxes in menu if menu is PICK_NONE. mhmenu.c
- About box changed to splash screen. This last thing is open
for discussion, as the splash screen currently does not give
exactly the ame information as the about box (or the v command).
Maybe the splash should be enhanced? Anyway, it looks better than
the About-box. I didn't remove the About-box code and resource yet
until this discussion is had. mhmain.c

In item-selection menus, as you know one can press "=" to select all
rings, say. This doesn't work if the letters run out before you get to
the rings, however (because there are so many items).
Menu code did not check group accelerators on items without assigned letters
(if the letters run out). Fixed.
