This may be useful for some build environments to avoid parallel make
issues, and artificially-concocted order dependencies, leaving the ordering
up to that specified in the Makefile.
The related makedefs options are now:
‐s Generate the bogusmon , engrave and epitaph files.
‐1 Generate the epitaph file.
‐2 Generate the engrave file.
‐3 Generate the bogusmon file.
Also resolves an existing issue encountered in doc/makedefs.6 where "and epitaphfiles"
was being produced in the result.
Testing some hints revisions resulted in some bafflement which
turned out to be caused by 'make spotless' in the dat subdirectory
not removing 'options'. It wasn't removing several other generated
files either. That used to work but got clobbered when the lua
special levels replaced levcomp and dgncomp.
Game is playable, and should compile on linux and Windows.
Assumes you have a lua 5.3 library available.
Removes level compiler and associated files.
Replaces special level des-files with lua scripts.
Exposes some NetHack internals to lua:
- des-table with commands to create special levels
- nh-table with NetHack core commands
- nhc-table with some constants
- u-table with some player-specific data (u-struct)
- selection userdata
Adds some rudimentary tests.
Adds new extended command #wizloadlua to run a specific script,
and #wizloaddes to run a specific level-creation script.
nhlib.lua is loaded for every lua script.
Download and untar lua:
mkdir lib
cd lib
curl -R -O http://www.lua.org/ftp/lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
tar zxf lua-5.3.5.tar.gz
Then make nethack normally.
Update the unix Makefiles and the older OSX hints files to handle the
pile marker tile overlay. I didn't touch hints/macosx10.10 and .11
since I think there's still a merge for them pending.
A couple of formatting tweaks for bemain.c are included, for no
compelling reason. What are the odds that anyone will every build
that again?
Pat noted that I neglected to drop the SCCS lines on the files I've been
committing, so clean up those and any others I could find where the SCCS
line date is out of date.
If SHELLDIR is null, don't install nethack.sh. Also a tid in Porting
and add NHSROOT to the Makefiles which gives a path to the top of the
tree (so e.g. you can always find makedefs from a rule in a hints file).
Build and install the NetHack.ad file, and change the nethack.sh to append
the HACKDIR to the XUSERFILESEARCHPATH. This means users do not have to
do anything special to use the NetHack X11 resources, nor does it require
teaching nethack where the X11 app-defaults directory is. The change also
updates the X11 and linux doc files in a corresponding way.
