d19cab4d98 implicit_uncursed, mention_walls
Move 'implicit_uncursed' and 'mention_walls' from iflags to flags to
make their current setting persist across save/restore.  Invalidates
existing save files.

df50d4cf17 fix #K112 - fumbling vs autoopen
Report complained that having autoopen not work when fumbling was
inconvenient and mentioned that the "ouch! you bump into a door"
result didn't take any time.  This updates the documentation to
state that autoopen won't work while fumbling (so the inconvenient
behavior persists) but changes movement so that bumping into a door
now takes time.  (Despite "ouch!", it doesn't inflict any damage.)

Also, document the recently added autounlock option.

c3fb94104b 'quick_farsight' option
Bite the bullet and add a special purpose boolean option to control
game behavior for random clairvoyance.  When objects or monsters are
discovered, it normally issues "you sense your surroundings" and
performs a getpos() operation which allows the player to browse the
map by moving the cursor around and getting 'autodescribe' feedback.
But there have been complaints that once the hero has the Amulet
(which triggers random clairvoyance even though hero isn't flagged
as having that attribute) the message and pause-to-browse become too
intrusive.

This was initially combined with the 'timed clairvoyance' fix because
they both bump EDITLEVEL to invalidate existing save files, but their
details don't interact so I separated them.

7ca572eb60 paranoid_confirmation:eating
Add 'eating' (synonym 'continue') to the list of things that can be
set via paranoid_confirmation to require "yes" instead of "y" when
the user is prompted about something, in this case "Continue eating?".

dat/opthelp was missing a few of the paranoid_confirmation choices.

ed3a87a078 more Guidebook tweaks
Expand the sample configuration file a little and prevent it from
going past the right margin in Guidebook.txt.

Replace all instances of "config file" with "configuration file".

Reformat the "notes" at the end of the table of map symbols.
Unfortunately Guidebook.pdf from Guidebook.ps from Guidebook.mn
puts a page break between the header line "notes" and the two
actual notes.

Value 1 for 'mouse_support' was not just exceeding the margin of
Guidebook.txt but wrapping to the next line.  Shorten it.

Guidebook.tex had a typo "in the foler" (where 'folder' was meant)
and Guidebook.mn didn't have that phrase at all.

Remove a few trailing spaces.

d7354fe78c Guidebook.tex catch up, Guideboon.mn bits
Guidebook.tex not tested.  The \, in the continuation of S_stone is
a narrow space in LaTeX.  It should be \hspace{ width of '(' } but
I don't remember how to measure something in LaTeX or TeX.

Guidebook.mn is getting two small changes:  I forgot about the
guideline that each sentence be on its own line.  Also, this adds the
fix for wide lines in the dungeoneers list although the reordering
accompanying a recent change might have made that moot (unless some
future reordering puts wide names on the same line again, assuming
that was the issue).

c66eb915d2 Guidebook.mn Symbols section
The table listing symset entries was ok for ps/pdf output but for
plain text output it was wrapping to a second line for S_xan,
S_pet_override, and S_player_override and also going past the right
margin for some others.  I've shortened the text for those three
and narrowed the first column to give more room for the third column,
bringing all the lines within their margin.

The entry for S_stone was rather surprising:  "dark part of a room".
It now says "solid rock or unexplored terrain or dark part of a room"
and needed to span two lines.

The first column has been labeled "Default" but that was why that
column was wider than necessary.  It now has a label of two spaces
and is left justified instead of being centered.  It is also now
forcing constant-width Roman as the font and every character in that
column should be the same size so one reason for centering is removed.

The title used to be centered but always looked a bit off due to the
fact that the three columns have differing widths and/or because of
the over-wide lines changing the location of "center".  It is now
left justified and looks a little bit like it's labeling the first
column.  Perhaps it needs a blank line separating it from the rest.

Guidebook.tex is lagging again.

384f98b61f Guidebook tweak
This sample comment attending the sample SYMBOLS statement fit ok in
the pdf output but wrapped to another line in the plain text output,
so shorten it.

S_xan, S_pet_override, and S_player_override still wrap, but by a bit
less than before.  Their width causes the line of dashes at the top
of the table to wrap too.

Guidebook.tex is still lagging behind.

e08dc704ef fix 'roff warning
I think it was issued by tbl but it wasn't about any of the tables.
 warning: numeric expression expected (got 'R')
was complaining about
 .lp SYMBOLS, ROGUESYMBOLS
Exclosing the paragraph label within quotes to make it one argument
to the lp macro or command would have fixed this, but I've split
them into two paragraphs.  And reordered several of the paragraphs
which were alphabetized just enough to make the out of order ones
seem like mistakes.

Guidebook.tex needs to catch up.

a399151d01 some symbol tweaks
A few symbol-related modifications:

- fulfill a request from a blind player to allow them to
  specify a unique/recognizable character for all pets and/or
  the player in the config file for use when using a screen
  reader (S_player_override, S_pet_override). Requires sysconf
  setting ACCESSIBILITY to be set to have an effect, although
  they can still be specified in the config file.

- Config file SYMBOLS entries were not working properly on
  the rogue level. Allow ROGUESYMBOLS as well as SYMBOLS to be
  specified in the config file independently.

- When values are moved into showsyms[], the overriding SYMBOLS
  or ROGUESYMBOLS entry from the config file is used if there is
  one; if there is no overriding value for a particular symbol,
  the loaded symset value is used; if there is no symset entry
  loaded for the symbol then a default symbol is used.
