This patch implements Michael's idea to have a "NetHack mode" for
keypresses. It only does the Alt-keys now, but it should be easy
to extend to pressing space in dialogs; I left that out as we still
have to agree on a new dialog look.
The setting that you choose from the menu is stored in the registry.
Reading and writing the registry is done on init_nhwindows and
exit_nhwindows; there also is a menu item to delete the registry
settings (which makes sure they are not stored again this session.)
This provides a framework for future registry settings.
Also,
Alt-tab should show the app title when a menu or text window is up.
I left the app title as it was, although I still favour "Graphical
Version" or "With Graphics"; Anyway, that's only one resource string.
Here's a patch that checks whether the common control
library is available and up-to-date
[slightly modified from <Someone>'s version to reduce
indentation one level, and to fix wrap-around
in the patch]
Addresses <Someone>'s point that ALT-F4 in game-over, still brings up the
save/quit/cancel dialog box. This makes ALT-F4 equivalent to quitting
without any further disclosure/windows, but makes sure the game exits
properly so it will save the bones and the record file. I also cleaned
up the mhrip.c to use macros for all magic numbers.
win32gui: more splash screen integration
The Makefile have rip.uu/splash.uu added to them. However, this won't
work if you don't have splash.uu. Instead, just copy rip.uu or another
.uu and name it splash.uu. Make expects to have splash.uu present (at
least Borland's make). It doesn't add splash.uu decoding to the IDE
framework. It does a bit in winhack.rc and Makefile.bcc to bring
winhack.rc up to sync with Borland's compiler. If you don't like the
splash screen, then I'll have to redo that part of the patch apart from
the others.
The splash screen uses the VERSION_MAJOR,
VERSION_MINOR, and PATCHLEVEL macros, but there is no room in case one
of these goes into two digits. That seems like a safe assumption to
make.

- set OPTIONS_FILE in ntconf.h so makedefs will use it
- it gets set to either "ttyoptions" or "guioptions" depending on window port
being built
- dlb nhdat creation stuffs both into the dlb file
accelerators).
[...]
- added F4/F5 functionality - same as in MSDOS port
F4 toggles between fitting the tiled display to the screen
and full size (compresses the tiles to fit / uncompresses).
F5 alternates between ascii and tiles.
- added support for wc_vary_msgcount
1) Removal of bmp placement in binary directory in NT
2) No use of "intrinsic function" optimization in dsp
3) Compilation of resource file for NT Console
Untested on Borland yet. Tested on console/graphical/ide Microsoft C 6.0
Ctrl-left_arrow - scroll left
Ctrl-right_arrow - scroll right
Ctrl-up_arrow - scroll up
Ctrl-down_arrow - scroll down
Ctrl-home - scroll to upper left corner
Ctrl-end - scroll to lower right corner
Ctrl-PgUp - scroll one page up (vertical)
Ctrl-PgDown - scroll one page down (vertical)
- F3/F4 keys switch between tiles / fit-to-screen ASCII mode (Yitzhak's
suggestion)
also corrects a cut-and-paste error that I made in options.c
The following options can be set in the game now:
WC_HILITE_PET
WC_ALIGN_MESSAGE
WC_ALIGN_STATUS
WC_SCROLL_MARGIN
WC_MAP_MODE
WC_FONT_MESSAGE
WC_FONT_STATUS
WC_FONT_MENU
WC_FONT_TEXT
WC_FONTSIZ_MESSAGE
WC_FONTSIZ_STATUS
WC_FONTSIZ_MENU
WC_FONTSIZ_TEXT
- added support for new options
- fixed couple of typos in options.c
- added sunken edge around message window
- added capability to replace font in the font table (if we will want to
change font sizes dynamically later)
- visual feedback after a prompt: append an empty line to the message
window when clear_nhwindow(WIN_MESSAGE) is called. Filter
out empty lines in the buffer except for the active slot.
- append ellipses to the status line text if the text is truncated
- get rid of message boxes at the end of the game (ignore empty lines in
raw_print as Yitzhak suggested)
Add absent prototypes to some core routines.
Also add some port function() to function(void) in some win32 routines.
Also updates the Borland C Makefile for win32.
The following fixes several bugs:
1) Mismatch between docs and game in definition of what '+' resolved in
favor of docs...
2) When game needs to be recovered a message box is shown. This is a very
deprecated fix. It pretty much answers just the conditions that require
this (a yn question to an erroneous winid), and is not useful for other
purposes.
3) The score file is written.
to allow common parsing in the core, and direct access to the
results by the window port.
Notes:
o Adds a new field, wincap, to the window_procs
structure for setting bits related to the preference
features that the window port supports. This allows
run-time determination of whether a particular option
setting is applicable to the running window port. A
window-port is free to support as many, or as few,
of the available options as it wants. Ensure that
only the ones supported have their corresponding bit
set in window_proc.wincap. [see chart in
doc/window.doc for help with that.]
o The settings I stuck into wincap for each window
port are almost certainly not accurate, so each port
team should review them. You should only include
the ones that you will actually react to and make
adjustments for if the user changes that option.
Without the setting in wincap, the option won't even
show up in the 'O'ptions menu.
o preference_update() added to the window-port
interface, so that the window-port can be notified
if an option of interest (an option with its
corresponding bit set in wincap field) is
changed.
o provided a genl_preference_update() routine in
windows.c and used it for all the existing
window ports since they don't have a functional
one of their own yet.
o this messes around heavily with iflags and the options
arrays in options.c
o I hope I didn't break any port's existing code. I
tried not to. The Mac however, in particular, should
be looked at because it suffered a namespace collision
with what I was working on around fontname. It had
Mac specific font stuff in options.c. Please test
the Mac.
Apparently, " is part of an accented character in US(international) keyboard
layout (additional character specific to the language of an origin - for
example, left and right double quotation marks). The code did not handle it
too well since it maps to 2 ASCII characters instead of one (one of them is
so called "dead" character). We can ignore the dead character as a
workaround for this problem. The patch is attached.
<Someone>.
The patch is attached. Array bounds went unchecked in
the menu page operations (, \ ~) This resulted in
memory corruption.
The actual crash depends on your luck actually. It will
only crash if heap headers are corrupted, otherwise it
can go unnoticed. When you do "Du," the list page size
is 18 (on my screen) with only 2 items in the menu. The
program assigned count of -1 to 18 items in the array
of 2. Ka-boom. I put bounds checking code in several
places. The window size does not have anything to do
with it.

- B1026 [confirmed] win32: setting multiple options
- bugfix: menu: set focus to the item and make it visible when it is
selected with accelerator key.
- increased menu font size by 1 point
- layout the main window on WM_MOVE message so the menu windows stays with
the main window (it was not changing the location before)
- got rid of WinCE specific define (ARM)
- handle all keyboard input via WM_KEYDOWN instead WM_CHAR
Files affected: config1.h mhmsg.h mhmain.c mhmenu.c mswproc.c resource.h
winhack.rc
Notes:
That overrides Yitzhak's mhmenu patch - I don't like the menu prompt on the
title bar since it can be null and in most cases it is. It looks much better
as a header column in the list and is displayed only if present.
I moved ARM-related (processor) defines to wceconf.h You cannot undef ARM
before windows.h is processed - ARM version won't compile.
.rc files are generated by IDE - you cannot edit them directly or your
changes will be gone next time the file is saved. If anything needs to be
added to winhack.rc file manually it has to be marked by the following
defines or via menu option View->Resource Includes:
#define APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
...
#undef APSTUDIO_READONLY_SYMBOLS
[...]
One of them deals with the patch you just sent, that changes the name but
does so more extensively, particularly, also in the Save dialog in
mhmain.c. Another is one of the changes to winhack.rc to make it compile
under Borland.
This also (beyond patches I sent): fixes no Options prompt bug, and fixes
up the menu bar (which I broke in one of my patches).
Tested on msc/bcc tty/win makefiles and vc ide.
B2001 <Someone> [reported] win32?: giant ant is black square
Where is the open doorway with the giant ant standing in it?
There used to be a closed door there, if I recall correctly.
[now there is just a black square]
I'm saving the level files at this point, and I will be saving
the game after I did that, in case you're interested in any save
files.
