Windows build was actually only using a single function
in there, so just add a similar function to sys/winnt/winnt.c
and eliminate the need for including sys/share/pcsys.c in
the build.
Defined strbuf_t and related routines to support dynamically sized
strings. Modified strip_newline() to strip the last newline in a string
instead of the first.
Simplified splash window code using new strbuf_t.
Prior to exiting game, re-enable getreturn and call wait_synch() in
case there is buffered raw prints that must be displayed to user.
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.
Make the variadic functions look more like ordinary code rather than
have the function opening brace be hidden inside the VA_DECL() macro.
That brace is still there, but VA_DECL() now needs to be followed by
a visible brace (which introduces a nested block rather than the
start of the funciton). VA_END() now provides a hidden closing brace
to end the nested block, and the existing closing brace still matches
the one in VA_DECL().
Sample usage:
void foo VA_DECL(int, arg) --macro expansion has a hidden opening brace
{ --new, explicit opening brace (actually introduces a nested block)
VA_START(bar);
...code for foo...
VA_END(); --expansion now provides a closing brace for the nested block
} --existing closing brace, still pairs with the hidden one in VA_DECL()
This should help if/when another round of reformatting ever takes place,
and also with editors or other tools that do brace/bracket/parenthesis
matching.
I had forgotten that there were variadic functions in sys/* and ended
up modifying a lot more files than intended. The majority of changes
to those just inserted a new '{' line so that revised VA_END()'s '}'
won't introduce a syntax error. A couple of them needed VA_END() moved
so that local variables wouldn't go out of scope too soon. Only the
Unix ones have been tested.
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!

Adjust the code and the command line Makefile so that
you no longer have to choose whether to build the tty
version NetHack.exe, or the gui version NetHackW.exe.
Both will now be built in a single 'nmake install' pass.

In order to get level file locking correctly again post 3.4.3
with the newer compilers for windows, I had to funnel close()
calls to an intercepting routine.
I had two choices:
1. Surround every close() in at least 9 source files with messy:
#ifdef WIN32
nhclose(fd);
#else
close(fd);
#endif
OR
2. Replace every close() with nhclose() and
deal with the special code in the nhclose()
version for windows, while just calling
close() for other platforms (in files.c).
It is also possible, although not done in this commit,
to
#define nhclose(fd) close(fd)
in a header file for non-windows, rather than funnel
though a real nhclose() function in files.c.
This brings things much closer to correct operation (I hope).
- The shift to only moving the cursor on input (<Someone>'s
changes) had a lot of complications, among them was
that sometimes, there is no more input. When the program was
exiting, or bombing the cursor synch never got done, so the
final messages could end up strewn any place the cursor
happened to be dwelling.
- There were two competing output systems in use: the
wintty stuff for the game, and the msmsg and error stuff
used by the sys/share/pcsys, sys/share/pctty, and
sys/share/pcunix routines. Those were meant to mimic
output to stdout, where stuff just got sent to a sequential
display. Over time, there were calls mixed in that depended
on the cursor tracked stuff from the core game, so you
really couldn't be sure where things were going to display.
It wasn't as much of an issue before, because the cursor
really did get moved around as expected. Everything
now ends up in the same output system.
- I even found a use of the real putchar() because
sys/share/pcunix didn't #include wintty.h the same
as the other files, and the macro never got defined.
Who knows where that character was being put -
the game certainly couldn't track it.
While everything I knew to be wrong yesterday is
now working, there may be some other glitches
lurking that I haven't discovered yet.
Please: test, test, test.
the win32 cursor restriction stuff messed up any
messages displayed during abnormal start conditions
where the window system never got initialized properly.
among them:
- messages relating to lock files or games in progress
- dungeon errors
- early panic messages

1. Switch to low-level console routines for performance improvements.
2. Instead of moving the cursor around like a real tty, just track the
destination coordinates of where the cursor should be, and
defer the movement until user input is expected.
Credit to <Someone> for #2.
From a bug report. I can't test this fix, but
inspection of the code shows that his suggested fix is clearly
necessary. Once `bp' gets incremented, storing via `bp[BUFSZ-1]'
writes beyond the bounds of `buf' and clobbers something.
